(solved) cache device gets full and transfers stop

[Clint45]

I have setup a share with a cache pool and set it to yes, but it only fills upp my cache and then stops the transfer. Shouldent it continue on to the array if there is no more space on the cache drive untill the mover i called for?

You've got the cache floor set on what I'm assuming are the shares you're talking about as 0.  So, if the system does not know the size of the file that is being transferred, it will fill up the cache drive until it errors out.  If it knows the size of the file, then it will first check to see if it'll fit and then decide where to move it.

 

Set the cache floor to be the size of the largest file you reasonably expect to ever be moved to it.
