OK yesterday we had some rolling thunderstorms and i lost power for a split second. When the power came back the network share where all of my movies are did not come up automatically like it is supposed to, the underlying OS did not mount the drive properly (no data loss though). But for some reason Jellyfin was displaying that there were no movies anywhere (although I was able to connect to the network share and see that the files were there). I made sure to shutdown JF and make sure that the network share was accessible before starting JF again. I left JF run for several hours and still nothing. Eventually I just went to my libraries definition and toll JF to scan them again, which did the trick, I had to fix some of the images and metadata, but no big deal.
My question is... How can I prevent this from happening in the future? I have shutdown the server where the movies are several times before (after upgrades/patches) and never had an issue. TIA for any ideas!
