Permissions¶
Plex runs as user plex (uid 999, gid 996). Media files on ZFS are owned by root:root with 755 permissions, which gives Plex read access.
Previous NAS mount (disabled)¶
The systemd mount unit at /etc/systemd/system/mnt-plex.mount previously mounted the NAS via CIFS. It is stopped and disabled but the unit file still exists on disk:
