NAS share needs refreshed on restart

Operating System ZimaOS
1

Hi,

Everytime I restart my ZimaOS machine I have to refesh the folder in the Docker Compose dialogue.

Plex, Radarr et all are unable to access the contents of my NAS following a restart and I have to manually go back into the Docker compose dialogue to the ZimaOS folder destinations and navigate away from them and then back to them through the Select popup when you click the folder location. The location has not changed.

I’m thinking (in my limited knowledge) that the OS re-mounts the NAS location with a different storage location ID after a reboot instead of a fixed ID. Like when you set it up through fstab.

Do I need to do battle with fstab to keep the drives so Docker can automatically find them again?

Can you tell me what type of disk you use?

It’s a Synology Nas connected by smb over ethernet.

What’s happening is simple: after every reboot, ZimaOS gives your SMB share a new internal mount-ID. The visible folder name doesn’t change, but the underlying path does, so Docker loses the link and your apps can’t see the NAS until you re-select it.

fstab won’t help here. ZimaOS doesn’t persist SMB mounts that way.
The fix is to ensure the share is added through Network Storage, which gives it a stable mount path that containers can track.
