My first question is, can I remotely access my NAS? I plan to build my system and keep it at my in-laws’ house to store all my data in a location that’s not my apartment. Secondly, if that’s possible, can I set up the NAS here at my apartment and then simply move it there, or should I set it up where I intend to keep it permanently? Thirdly, if that’s feasible, can I set it up in a way that allows me to drag and drop files in Windows File Explorer, and they’ll automatically appear on my NAS wherever it is?

Another question I have is how other users can access the NAS. I want to be able to share family photos, for example, using this NAS. Is there a web portal that other users can log into to access files and folders that they have access to? I understand that there’s a focus on simplifying permissions and users, but I’m curious about how this actually works.
 

It would be great if HexOS could optionally back up the full system configuration to the user's HexOS account. When installing HexOS on a new boot drive or migrating to new hardware, users could simply sign in and choose "Restore from Account Backup" to automatically restore all system settings.

This could include:

• Storage pool configuration

• Shares and permissions

• Users and groups

• Apps and app settings

• Scheduled tasks

• Network settings (where appropriate)

• Other TrueNAS configuration

The feature should be optional, allowing users to enable or disable automatic cloud backups and manually create restore points if desired.

This would make disaster recovery and hardware migration much simpler, eliminate the need to manually export/import configuration files, and provide a smoother experience for users while keeping HexOS true to its goal of making NAS management easy.

Failed to check for alert SyslogNg: [Errno 24] Too many open files

 This is the error I keep getting sent to my email, never had an issue before during about a year of hex os use. Any ideas on how to fix it? I have recently made sure everything is up to date! Thanks! Loving the product so far! So worth the lifetime licence!

If you could provide direction or insight regarding HexOS's capabilities it would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

I want to create a second pool and I'd like to have different names. "HDDs" and "HDDs-1" aren't really good names....

I started the most recent update over he Deck on Saturday and because it took longer then expected to come beck up on the deck I looked at the TrueNAS Interfaces, as it was online and didn't show any running tasks i assumed the update went trough and restarted via the web interface. But even after that and after some additional waiting time Deck still couldn't find the server.

I already tryed the Network fix from Mobius of the "Deck will not connect to hexOS" thread and checked, within my capabilities, the ports mentioned in the https://docs.hexos.com/troubleshooting/ Guide. 

Is there any way i can check for Process on the host machine if HEXOS is even running?

I did have tailscale on at first, but I have turned that off and tried everything short of restarting hexOS.

The app is showing to have available updates in the TrueNAS app list.
Of course, this app doesn't show up the HexOS Deck interface. So I cannot update it from there.

My question is:
- What should I do with this app?
- Should I update it manually?
- Will HexOS update it automatically? When?
- Why does it show an update but didn't update automatically yet?

I understand, that the intention for HexOS is to never have to touch TrueNAS.
For my use cases I do very often and just wondered about this.

HexOS now appears in the Applications tab on TrueNAS but will periodically try to start and then crash after running for a second, and there appears to be an update available. 

Thanks in advance for you help!

I've tried manually plugging the IP into the Deck page, and it still doesn't find it. Machines are undoubtedly on the same network, as they are plugged into the same network switch via ethernet. Haven't had luck troubleshooting with any of the other posted content so far, looking for assistance.

Verified in both Chrome (147.0.7727.116) and Firefox (150.0). I've tried on both deck.hexos.com and prod.hexos.com

IDK just thinking out loud as I try learning how this stuff works.

• One or more of your storage pools is at or near capacity.

How can i disable this Message or set a new Limit.

7TiB of Free storage is not a reason for an Orange message in my Case.
