Hi,
I’m still trying to have a working setup for nix on MacOS with external drive store.
The main issue I have with the external store is that if at any point the drive is plugged off, the daemon won’t work again until reboot. I feel like it’s due to the socket being on the external drive and thus being absent when drive is unplugged.
So here are my questions:
- Is it possible to move the socket (and possibly anything needed by the daemon to stay alive) to the internal drive while still having the store on the external drive ?
- If not possible, how can I at least gracefully stop the daemon before unplugging the drive to be able to restart it when re-plugging it ? Currently I found no way of restarting the daemon and having it to work properly after re-plugging apart from rebooting the machine…
Thanks,
JM
