Jobine Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Hi, In front of each of the names of my user shares, I have an orange triangle indicating that I'm not protected. What parameter should I adjust ? And another question, "Compute all" button is for what? Thank, Quote Link to comment
Energen Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Compute all simply calculates the total size of the data on each share. Unprotected means that there is data that is not protected by the parity array, meaning it hasn't been copied to the array for parity calculation. Quote Link to comment

JorgeB Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Run the mover, shares must be set to cache=yes Quote Link to comment
Jobine Posted March 4, 2021 Author Share Posted March 4, 2021 What is the Mover ? Before I used the cache, but some (especially large) files remained there. So I disabled it. Quote Link to comment

ChatNoir Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 It is possible that some shares are not correctly configured as for cache use. Can you attach your diagnostics in your next post ? (tools / diagnostics) Quote Link to comment

itimpi Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 There do seem to be some anomalous share settings: Share anonymised as T-----s has files on cache but Use Cache=No which means they never get moved off Share anonymised as S-----s has files on cache but Use Cache=No which means they never get moved off Share anonymised as M-----a has files on cache but Use Cache=No which means they never get moved off You might want to look at the help built into the GUI to see how the Use Cache setting affects whether files get moved between array and cache.

Jobine Posted March 4, 2021 Author Share Posted March 4, 2021 (edited) I just looked with Krusader, and the directories are there, but there are no files. I remember seeing this with "Fix common problems" Edited March 4, 2021 by Jobine Quote Link to comment
itimpi Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 If you are sure the directories are empty then you can simply delete them off the cache drive. Their presence is likely to make the shares be marked as unprotected. there is also a share anonymised as S——e that is on the cache - is this where you want it to be? Quote Link to comment

Compute... for a specific share does the same but just for that share. Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Also note that appdata, domains, and system shares are normally kept on cache permanently for better performance of dockers/VMs and so array disks can spin down since these shares will always have open files. But, your system share also has files on the array, perhaps because you enabled Docker before installing cache. On Main, click on the folder icon for Disk1 at the far right under the VIEW column, then on that page, click on system in the NAME column and post a screenshot of that page. Quote Link to comment

Jobine Posted March 4, 2021 Author Share Posted March 4, 2021 When deleting empty directories, most of the icons turned green. There remains Appdata, Share and System. Quote Link to comment
itimpi Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Any shares that have any folders or files on the cache will show as unprotected if you only have a single drive in the pool (or you have multiple drives and have switched the pool to the btrfs single profile). Quote Link to comment

Jobine Posted March 4, 2021 Author Share Posted March 4, 2021 (edited) and i know how get to the command line. (>_ top right ?) Is there a way to move docker.img to cache? and put everything back in the right place? Edited March 4, 2021 by Jobine Quote Link to comment
Jobine Posted March 4, 2021 Author Share Posted March 4, 2021 Appdata Files in /mnt/cache/appdata and /mnt/user/appData seem similar For my dockers, I replaced the path /mnt/user/appdata for /mnt/cache/appdata Share OK, just deleted, nothing important there. System How I can move docker.img from there ? Thank, Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 2 hours ago, Jobine said: Files in /mnt/cache/appdata and /mnt/user/appData seem similar They are not just similar, they are exactly the same files. The user shares are just the aggregated top level folders on cache and array. Different views of the same files. 2 hours ago, Jobine said: System How I can move docker.img from there ? Do you mean your docker.img is on disk1? Quote Link to comment

Jobine Posted March 5, 2021 Author Share Posted March 5, 2021 Can I stop the Docker. (Setting, docker, Enable docker OFF, Apply) Modify the - Docker vDisk location: /mnt/user/system/docker/docker.img --> /mnt/cache/system/docker/docker.img (don't exist on cache drive) - Default appdata storage location: /mnt/user/appdata/ --> /mnt/cache/appdata/ (exist on cache drive) Thank, Quote Link to comment
ChatNoir Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 My solution would be : Stop Docker through Settings Stop VMs through Settings (if applicable) Go to Shares Set appdata, system and domains to Prefer : Cache Run the Mover Once everything is moved, restart Dockers and VMs. Enjoy.
