I have a Raspberry Pi to which I have attached an SSD. As this
is where the majority of my data is stored, I would like to
share the attached drive with other machines on my network.
"Share" is greyed out so is there a "hidden" way of doing this?
Create an Obey file on your RPi containing a Share command. eg
*Share SCSI::SSDdisc RpiSSD
and run that
I'm afraid you are talking to a Dumbo here.
How do I create such a file and where do I put it?
The disc has the name "Iyo" as it was originally installed in my
Iyonix. I presume this is significant?
Using the RPi...
1. Click on the SSD disc icon to open a filer window
2. Open Apps and Start !Edit (or !StrongEd)
3. Open Edit menu => Create => click on Obey
4. Type in the edit window a single line:
Share <disc> <share>
where <disc> is the name you see in the SDD filer window title
eg SCSI::Iyo.$
and <share> is your chosen share display name eg RpiSSD or Iyo
5. Click F3 over the Edit window to open the Save As
6. Change ObeyFIle to a filename of your choice eg !ShareSSD
7. Drag the Obey icon to your SSD disc filer window to save it.
8. Check you have Access enabled in Configuration => Access
If not, enable it and re-boot if requested.
9. Double-click the !ShareSSD file in the filer window
10. Click on the Discs icon on the iconbar and your chosen name
should appear in the list of disks shared.
On any other networked machine with Access Enabled you should also be
able to see your shared SSD disc. Just double-click it to add to
iconbar for use as a normal disc.
If the RPi is restarted, just double-click the !ShareSSD file to
re-enable sharing.
