Problem with SMB shares

Operating System ZimaOS
1

Hi, every time I restart Zimaboard 2 with Zimaos, the SMB network shares are not remounted. Is there a solution?
Thanks

After a reboot, SMB shares can appear unavailable until the storage pool is fully mounted. Usually this resolves itself within a minute or two.

What to check:

  • Make sure the disk/storage pool is mounted and shows as online in Storage
  • Confirm the share still exists under Shares (no need to recreate it)
  • From a client, refresh or reconnect the network drive (Windows often needs this)

Workarounds that help:

  • Ensure the share is created from a mounted storage pool (not a transient path)
  • Avoid sharing folders before the disk is fully initialized
  • If it persists, restarting the SMB service or toggling the share off/on once usually restores it

Thank you for your reply. The share is set up with the FILES application and disappears when I restart, so I have to recreate it.

Thanks for the clarification.

If a share created via the FILES app disappears after every reboot, that isn’t normal. FILES-based SMB shares should persist across restarts.

Please email community@icewhale.org with your ZimaOS version and a brief description of the behavior so the team can review it and advise.

Thank you very much, I will do so.
