Terminal & Files

A real shell and a full file manager in the browser, with stricter rules than the rest of the dashboard.

Terminal

A shell as the Linux user who installed CloudZH. sudo asks for that user's Linux password.
Only administrators with a passkey or 2FA. Every new session asks for your password.
By default only from your home network or VPN.
Several sessions as tabs. They keep running when you change page and close 30 minutes after the last window.

zh terminal status
zh terminal off
zh terminal remote on    # also allow outside home and VPN
zh terminal close-all

Files

Place	Contains	Access
Data	`/srv/data`	Read and write
App data	Folders that belong to the app, never its compose file	Read and write
Home	Home of the Linux user	Same rules as the terminal
System	`/`	Read only

Upload in pieces (also folders, drag and drop), download single files or as ZIP, copy, move, rename, pack and unpack, edit text, change permissions. Deleted files go to a 30-day recycle bin. Repair permissions helps when Sonarr or Radarr report "Permission denied". Turn the file manager off with zh files off.

External drives

Files has three tabs: Internal, External (mounted USB disks) and Drives. A disk you plug in appears under Drives with its file system, size and model.

Mount, Unmount and Safely remove (writes everything, unmounts and powers the disk down).
Mount automatically when plugged in and after a restart (on by default), read only and a display name per disk.
Format a new disk as ext4 (best for this server) or exFAT (also readable on Windows and Mac). Asks for your password and the disk name; disks with data, app data or the system are never offered.
Copy or move between your data and an external disk with cut, copy and paste across tabs.

Supported: exFAT, FAT32, NTFS, ext4, ext3, ext2, XFS and Btrfs. Disks are mounted under /mnt/cloudzh/<name> without the right to run programs.
