Cannot Delete Items

Drobo - End of Sale Drobo 5N
1

Hi folks.

I cannot delete some items on my Drobo 5N. I’ve tried in the Finder (Mac) and in the terminal as well. I’ve restarted the unit, and left it to get through its own processes, and it still is an issue.

Are there any maintenance procedures I should follow? This shouldn’t be happening. Any advice appreciated.

Cheers

Is there a file size limit on these files? I’ve started the SSH and Bash shell, and I can’t even rm the thing under sudo.

Do you get any errors when using sudo rm?

I’m currently in there on this process, which is taking minutes to complete. I’m waiting for it to end:

rm -R KILL2.photolibrary/

Will report back.[hr]
This process has been going for >10 minutes now.

Turns out it works, but it takes absolutely forever.
