Synology: DSM 7 Installation Archive -- Archived from main thread

if you now look, you have a PlexMediaServer shared folder.

Plex on DSM 7 was moved here (all the DSM 7-mandated changes)

The DSM 7 version of Plex is a complete rewrite of the supporting scripting and installation.

New fundamental rules:

  • The Plex shared folder is for you to use or delete as you wish

  • The Plex User ‘plex’ can be deleted.

  • The PlexMediaServer shared folder is not for your use except to get logs should PMS ever fail to start.

  • The DSM 7 installation menus now provide the key functionality for reclaiming your server

  • If you wish to move the shared folder to a new volume, use Control Panel - Shared Folder and change the location there. DSM 7 will handle everything.\

The Syno FAQ has been updated to reflect DSM 7.

There is a section in the Syno FAQ specific to DSM 7.

In there, you will find how to give PlexMediaServer (the new username) permission to read your media.

Command line interaction with DSM 7 is frowned upon unless you completely understand how DSM 7 works.
