Using SMB share to save photos and DB

Hi guys, I'm trying to have my Immich instance to upload the photos and DB to SMB share. I'm using Proxmox and then running Immich on Debian VM. I'm also running TrueNAS Scale in another VM.

So I made a dataset and made a SMB share out of it. You can see the ACL in the uploaded screenshot.
Then I went and mounted the share using this command:

sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.2.15/immich /mnt/immich -o username=immich,password=mypassword

sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.2.15/immich /mnt/immich -o username=immich,password=mypassword

sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.2.15/immich /mnt/immich -o username=immich,password=mypassword

sudo mount -t cifs //192.168.2.15/immich /mnt/immich -o username=immich,password=mypassword

After that I edited the .env file
