VM/cache scheme - double check me

[nraygun]

I recently upgraded to 6.9.1 and it went great. Thanks unRaid Dev Team!

When I upgraded, my VMs moved to the array from the SSD cache. I'm moving things around, but I thought I'd try this scheme going forward.\

 

Setup 3 shares:

vmarray - cache = no, VMs stored and run from the array

vmcache - cache = prefer, VMs stored and run from SSD cache

vmdata - cache = no, data for VMs separated by VM, stores data in array (homedir, steam, etc.)

 

Then when I create a VM, I would use a combo of vmarray+vmdata or vmcache+vmdata to hold my VMs and associated data. Only gotcha is I'd have to manually backup the VMs.

 

Does this sound like a good plan?

One more thing, I saw some leftover stuff in the appdata share in the array. Looked like a bunch of symbolic links.

I moved them out the way and the Docker containers seem to still work.
