I think that is GREAT feature and I will absolutely be using it. I can't stand when my cache fills and my dockers go nuts because the drive is out of space. However, that is not what i am referring to. That is a set of lateral cache pools. I am talking about vertical pools.
Ex: 500GB NVMe
|
V
2 TB SATA SSD
|
V
UnRAID Array
Is this a possibility with this new multi-pool feature?
As, xl3b4n0nx put it, this is what i am hoping for. I Imagine the tiered caching setup as follows:
array 1: JOBD SSD (Hot Pool)
redundancy unimportant
Data is moved when idle, on a timer (mover), or policy (last time accessed, ie hot data is never moved)
For:
Appdata
Dockers
Important VMs
array 2: r10/z2 BRTFS/ZFS HDD (Living Pool)
redundancy possible
Data is moved on a timer (mover), or policy (last time accessed, ie hot data is moved up)
For:
Downloads
Testing VMs
array 3: Unraid HDD (Cold Pool)
redundancy paramount
Data is moved by policy (last time accessed, ie hot data is moved up)
For:
Keeping a redundant copy of everything
In addition, proper SAS support would be a welcomed addition. I have never had Sata products last past a few years.
