Best way to avoid path resets

Post by Sertis »

Hello,

I have had an issue with SABNZB resetting my folders and I'd like to know what would be the best workaround.
My server autostarts SABNZB running on an iSCSI lun (very limited disk space on c:), but at times, it's necessary to bring up the server if the lun is unavailable or in maintenance. However since SABNZB autostarts, it immediately moves all the folders to the user profile, pulls the RSS, and fills the queue (which locks the folder configuration). What's the best way to avoid this scenario? I don't want to lose the queue contents if possible.

Thanks.

Write a little script that checks presence of the volumes before starting SABnzbd.
