Title: Server / Client: run auto import on server from client?
Post by: stevemac on June 10, 2017, 10:23:33 pm

Hi,

Have MC 22.0.106 running on a Debian VM.  It is headless and running as the server.  It serves to 4 PCs running MC + a few DLNA devices

When I copy new content to the storage used by the VM there is often a delay until is is available in the MC library on the server

Is there any method from a MC client to trigger the remote library to which it is connected to run its auto import process?  Would like to avoid accessing the server via VNC and triggering the auto-import

thanks,

Steve

I dont think there is an option in jremote to do that.
What length delay do you experience? Mine is only 5 mins or shorter.

Hi,

I haven't timed it, but it's more than 5 mins.  I suspect that file system changes are not being detected & notified to the jriver VM.

Storage for the media files is on a  CIFS / SMB share from a FreeNas server (FreeNAS-9.10.2-U4)
I think vfs full_audit needs to be enabled (in the CIFS config for the share) to track file system changes, however there are issues with this and copying files from Win 10 machines to the share.  I'll test this in the next few days
