  • CACHE DRIVE SPACE UTILIZATION

      • Minor

    This was originally reported here and seemed to be fixed at some point meaning the cache drive could be fully utilized.

     

     

    However, when I upgraded to 6.10.x the issue/bug seems to be occurring again.

     

    I have my shares set to leave 500gb free on all my array drives, however this means that when my 1tb cache drive gets to 500gb utilization, any new copies start to write to the array, The old functionality used fill up the cache drive to 1tb and then start to write to the array.

     

    I cant see how this could have been implemented as a design feature by the fact that the functionality keeps changing and it also makes having large cache drives completely redundant if it only uses some of the available space.

    You are lucky it doesn't work as expected, you don't want to fill cache completely or you might corrupt it.

     

    If it were working as you want, then 0 would never overflow since it will always have more than Minimum when it chooses a disk for a new file.

    It will start writing to other device when one of the floors is hit, it doens't matter which one, it has always been like this.
