Thanks

One problem I haven't been able to overcome is slow writes by radarr and sonarr to my unionfs mount - anyone else having this problem?

It is cool, isn't it? ? It makes you rethink how to use storage when unlimited cloud storage is so cheap via this method and pretty much indistinguishable from local storage. If and when any of my local drives die, it's going to be an interesting decision for me what to do. I've already removed one (small) HDD to free up space for an SSD, and I'm contemplating removing another to make way for another SSD I'm not using.

I've added a /scripts pointing to /boot/config/plugins/user.scripts/scripts/ in radarr and sonarr to run a couple of my scripts. Do I need to do anything funky like RO/Slave etc, or just leave it as Read/Write? Thanks

hmm I hadn't considered that - I'm searching the forum to see if anyone's ever added a script to a user script to a docker before and how

Brilliant - what kind of launch times are you getting? How does it compare to PD? I never really got PD working and whilst investigating the rclone bits, I realised I could reduce the number of moving parts I needed to figure out and the support on the rclone forum is as good as on this one, whereas with PD I couldn't see anywhere to go.

I install the rclone plugin via a script as I have a pfsense VM so I can't use the main plugin as it needs connectivity when unraid starts, whereas I don't have connectivity for a min or two until my pfsense VM kicks in. I have that install check there to make sure that I don't run the script twice - it creates a dummy file when the script starts that it checks isn't there before starting, and removes it when the script stops. Once things settle down a bit, I'm going to set the script to run say every 5 mins so if for some reason the mount drops, it will re-mount it. In radarr/sonarr you can run scripts in settings/connect and then add 'Custom Script'. I just created an extra docker mapping for /scripts --> /boot/config/plugins/user.scripts/scripts/ . I did it this way as I might have extra scripts in the future.

Sorry, I thought I'd removed bits that weren't relevant. I was previously using rclone's cache which is great at merging local files not uploaded yet with cloud files a la unionfs, with local files uploaded automatically. But, media launches were shocking so I moved to vfs in tandem with unionfs. My /mnt/dicks/rclone_cache_old mount is where I've mounted and decrypted the cache files that hadn't been uploaded yet, so that I can manually upload them. Here's my rclone config with irrelevant bits removed this time: [gdrive] type = drive client_id = xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.apps.googleusercontent.com client_secret = scope = drive root_folder_id = service_account_file = token = [gdrive_media_vfs] type = crypt remote = gdrive:crypt filename_encryption = standard directory_name_encryption = true password = password2 = [upload_gdrive_media] type = crypt remote = gdrive:crypt filename_encryption = standard directory_name_encryption = true password = password2 = [backup] type = crypt remote = gdrive:backup filename_encryption = standard directory_name_encryption = true password = password2 = Correct - just create a vfs mount with your uploadcrypt: remote and you're good to go. Mount it at the same location as gdrivecrypt: and you shouldn't have to update anything else.

Ignore anything you've seen me posting here or the rclone forums previously as most of it was when I really didn't know what I was doing or asking - now I'm at about 50% I use the user scripts plugin to do most of the work, so I'll just post my scripts.

I'm doing exactly that - loading the less vital content, stuff I don't really care about if it gets nuked at a later date by google or content I could replace if I was really bothered. I've still got my local array that can hold about 30TB for content I can't afford to lose (I'm also backing this up to gd), although if a drive fails in the future I will have to consider whether to replace it or just load the content online. Given some of the insane amounts of storage I've seen on the rclone forums that's being stored, including people using GD for seedboxes....., I don't think this is something google are currently bothered about. The bigger risk I think is that they will one day enforce the 5 user requirement for unlimited storage, rather than letting people like me through with one account for £6/pm.

I had the same launch problems, which went went away when I moved to the new rcone vfs feature which allows you to directly mount your encrypted remote without incurring any API hits i.e. you don't need plexdrive. My launches are only a second or two longer than local files i.e. I can't really tell. Assuming your encrypted remote is gdrive as in the guide, try: rclone mount --allow-other --dir-cache-time 24h --cache-dir=/tmp/rclone/vfs --vfs-read-chunk-size 64M --vfs-read-chunk-size-limit 1G --buffer-size 256M --log-level INFO gdrive: /mnt/disks/crypt I'm not sure that: --cache-dir=/tmp/rclone/vfs is needed as nothing seems to get written to a cache, but I've left this is in to ensure it goes to ram if it does. If you can be bothered to try and speed-up launch times, try playing with --vfs-read-chunk-size 64M This is the size of the first chunk rclone reads, which keeps doubling until the limit is reached - 1G in my case i.e. it reads 64,128,256,512,1024.....1G. A lower value could mean you have faster launches - didn't seem to work for me, and 64M seems to be the currently recommended number over on the rclone forums. The buffer is there just in case of any connectivity problems and in my scenario gets filled quickly between the second and third chunk being downloaded. If you're worried about API calls you could increase --dir-cache-time as rclone mounts now poll every min for updates, so you could have an insanely high time. I've kept mine lowish as I'm still uploading content, and I have had a few problems where if a new series is added, the polling hasn't picked this up. I don't think this is a real concern as I've uploaded 20TB of my content so far and I've done numerous plex library updates, restarts etc while I was removing duplicates and getting it all working. you can write direct to the mount, but it's not recommended as if it fails you lose the file. So, best to keep the scheduled upload job as in the guide and the unionfs mount so that plex can still see files that haven't uploaded yet.

I'm still trying to get my head around this. If radarr hardlinks a file, if I in the future delete it from deluge or from the media location that this is safe? I.e I have to delete it from both locations for it really to be deleted?

Thx - that's a good spec.

How much do you pay for your server and what's the spec? I might have to go this road in the future if I move to somewhere that doesn't have good upstream bandwidth - at the moment I can handle the download and then upload to remote locations as I have a good upstream, but in the future I might have to 'dedicate' my upstream to loading content onto the dedicated server and not remote streams. I was nervous about placing so much content in the cloud, particularly after the shitty move ACD made. But, seeing how much content some people have loaded onto google I'm hoping 'fingers crossed' that google won't do the same!

plexguide does look good - I had everything set up already except for rclone, so I went the DIY route. It's really changed 'overnight' the way I use my storage - I don't think I'll be adding any more HDDs to my system, other than to replace my 'working' drives when they die and even then I think I'll be focussing on bigger SSDs. In fact, I've already removed one of my HDDs and most of the others will become pretty redundant soon.

@WasehHave you had a chance to contact Squid? It'd be nice to not need to install the plugin at every boot, which would protect against the situation like last month when the rclone site went down.

Is anybody else using the new vfs mount? I finally got it working nicely this weekend with a google drive mount - I can't tell the difference 90% of the time in plex whether a file is being played locally or from gd. I tried the cache mount, but my plex starts were averaging around 30s (around 4s now - same as local files) and I was having problems uploading files. I'm using a rclone move job to upload files on a schedule to gd and unionfs to merge the gd files and files not yet uploaded, so that plex can always play something. 17TB uploaded so far and no problems.

I store a lot of my content on google drive so my flow was /mnt/user/downloads--->/mnt/user/import--->/mnt/disks/google_media for files I'm adding to gd via a rclone mount. I couldn't hardlink because docker has to copy between /mnt/user and /mnt/downloads for those files. I've just added the following to my array start script: mount --bind /mnt/user/downloads/ "/mnt/disks/downloads" mount --bind /mnt/user/import/ "/mnt/disks/import" so my flow is now: /mnt/disks/downloads/ --> /mnt/disks/import --> /mnt/disks/google_media i.e. I've used these for my docker mounts e.g. unraid_disks as my mapping for /mnt/disks on all relevant docker. Files are still actually stored in /mnt/user/downloads and /mnt/user/import. I believe this will let me hardlink as docker now knows the files are all on the same filesystem /unraid_disks. Before i do this, can anyone see any problems? Thanks Edit: I think I've come up with one problem. If I understand hardlinks properly, for my flow files that appear to be in /mnt/disks/google_media will stay in mnt/disks/import to avoid unnecessary IO - this is no good for me as I need the file to actually move to /mnt/disks/google_media i.e. off my server not a problem I think as my rclone move script moves files from the mount, so I think the actual file is moved.

Thanks I've set mine to 10 so it kicks in when 90% of memory used - I've got 64GB so this means it's there for insurance. Default is 60, which is too 'aggressive' for my use case.

I'm so glad I found this post as this has been driving me mad the last couple of weeks. When I had a slow internet connection I never saw the problem, but now I've got a fast one my disks have been getting 'backed up' with slow transfers. Re 'Use hardlinks instead of copy' when I've finished seeding a file do I delete it via Deluge, which will only delete it from the system and not from the filesystem for radarr/plex etc? Also, is the real file at that point moved from Deluge's completed folder /mnt/downloads/complete to my /mnt/movies folder, or was it already there when radarr did the hardlink? I'm trying to gauge if I need to assign more disks to /mnt/downloads/ if files could potentially be staying there for months before moving to /mnt/movies Thanks

thanks

That would still mess up my flow or lead to inefficiencies as I can't fully split my flows e.g. I download tv show via /mnt/user0/downloads ---> /mnt/user0/tv_shows, but then I want to manually import a file in sonarr from /mnt/user0/downloads - I want it to happen fast so I want to use the cache drive not /mnt/user0/tv_shows. Also, by pooling my writes (normally max two big writes per day max) means my array drives spin up fewer times so I get less noise, and the turbo write plugin kicks in nicely to make the array write go quickly in one big chunk, rather than drives spinning up and down all day. I'm happy with my flow, I've just been caught out a few times when doing a big download session

I understand what you are saying. That's exactly how I use my cache 90% of the time. The problem I have is if I suddenly have a lot of writes to my cache, because my download speed is fast it can fill up quickly. Normal usage is the mover won't run more than once a day, but if it does fill fast I have a problem at the moment. I just want a bit of insurance by being able to poll more often. It's also hard for me to seperate 'background writes' from 'foreground writes' i.e. yes I'm ok with movies getting downloaded and written to /movies_adults slowly, but when I'm manually ripping or moving a movie to the same directory I want it to happen quickly.

Is there a way to check manually via a script more frequently if the threshold has been passed e.g. every 30 or 15 minutes, and if so run mover? Every hour is too late for me as I have a fast connection . If I install the old script will they conflict? Thanks

Ok, I've been using this for a few days - can I use a few questions please. I've created a 32GB swapfile as I've added an extra unassigned SSD that has spare space. It's been live for around 1.5 days and it's using 8GB so far, but I've got free memory. When does it move data to the swap? I thought it only did it when the physical ram was getting low? What controls it? If the swap data is accessed, is it moved back to ram? Thanks
