Do you want to split or convert PDFs to JPGs? To convert you can use ImageMagick and run
Code:
convert source.pdf dest.jpg
.
To wait for a file that drops into a dir you can use inotifywait. This brings you to a script like this (not tested):
Code:
inotifywait -m /your/upload/file/path -e create -e moved_to | while read dir action file do # run your script passing the directory, filename and action convert $dir/$file /your/target/file/path/$file.jpg done

Depends on your choice? Within the container, it is in /config. But the host path (normally the path on your NAS) it is your choice. You do this by mappping the path when creating the container. In the command line
-v /your/config/path/:/config \
in the compose file
volumes:
- '/your/config/path/:/config'
In the GUI Create Container -> Advanced Settings -> Storage

check the kernel logs
Code:
dmesg
.. never mind, just read you had checked them already ... but maybe QNAP support knows something else to check

It should but there is always a risk, make sure you have full backups of everything (a RAID is never a backup!)

Hi dolbyman, I agree — hard to tell what's going on without logs, but sadly there doesn't seem to be anything relevant in QuLog. dmesg only reports about the disconnection and reconnection, and /var/log is also quite unhelpful at least to my eyes (the messages file is zero bytes! back in my day it was the go-to place for this kind of thing). I'll open a ticket with Qnap, hopefully they can come up with something. Thanks!

Hard to say from afar and without logs.
Might be best to contact QNAP support via ticket, so they can have a look

An update: it just happened again, after another fresh reboot and without the external USB disk connected; I had also replaced the network cable with a brand new cat6 one. After it happened I connected it to a gigabit switch and it resumed working, so I'm at a loss here. The 2.5gbit switch is cheap, but every other device connected to it seems to work well. ifconfig does show errors and dropped frames, even connected to the gigabit switch. Is the NIC inside the NAS dying?

sorry for the language but I'm using google translate
Hi everyone, I'm in this situation:
-Qnap 264 with 2 10tb HDs in Raid 0;
-TL-D800C USB expansion with 16TB 7HD in Raid 5
I need to replace the 2 10TB HDs with 2 smaller ones so I will have to reinstall everything from scratch since it is not possible to downgrade the size of the HDs. My question is once I've done it all over again can I reconnect the external USB drive without the fear that the volume and data on it won't be recognized by the new system? I'm afraid that if I reconnect it it won't be recognised. Thank you

You mention nothing about how the disks are setup on the device. That is the bottleneck i would guess

Can you post some screenshots of the disk config etc..if the disk has already been configured as storage, it would not be available for the migration (it needs to be marked "free")
