I have no interest in buying bigger hard drives just because coder’s get lazy and don’t think to clean up after themselves, especially since M$ doesn’t seem interested in bringing its server class data dedup to the client side anytime this decade. I guess this is now a feature request, since said it was safe to delete said: Hopefully this post will highlight the issue for them and they will fix it in a future release. Now, I’m willing to cut the Plex coders some slack on this given the informal code development process they started with. I’m bothered by this laissez-faire attitude towards space management and code cleanup. I do see the value of keeping 2-3 versions back, hence my suggestion. I’m also not going to go back to a version of PLEX from 1 let alone 2 years ago, I doubt my clients would support it. I’m sitting on 20TB on my PMS, available storage isn’t my issue, I would just rather use that storage for my content and not useless installs. When the next PMS Explodaversion is released (date to be determined) and you find out there are no longer any version archives you’re going to wish you had that 2GB of previous versions to fall back on.Īt the very least you could copy that directory to a thumb drive to future proof your Plex server.
I’ve got 3 episodes of Family Guy that’s 2GB. If not, then you need to make one manually under Accounts -> Groups, and set the user's Primary Group to it.2GB? If you’re worried about 2GB it’s time to shop for storage. In order for the above to work and make sense, you should also create this "plex" user/group (972/972) under Accounts -> Users, something like so:ĭoing this should automatically create a group named "plex" with the GID 972. (You should apply it "recursively" so that it applies to all your subfolders and files.) You can use either the traditional Unix permissions method or the more nuanced ACL method. This can be applied in the GUI for the dataset's permissions, or in the CLI.
In order to access the folder (and the subfolders and files within), your real media folder in TrueNAS ("Plex_Media") needs to allow the UID 972 and/or GID 972 permission. When the plexmediaserver daemon runs in the background ( inside your jail), the process is owned by the user ID 972 (which is the user "plex"). In TrueNAS proper, you need a UID/GID (user/group) that matches the one automatically created in the Plex jail.
