supergregg Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 Hi. Can somebody point me in the right direction on how to move all data off cache so that i can reconfigure it and then re-enable cache for the affected shares. I currently only have "Prefer : Cache" shares; appdata, system and VMs. What would be the correct way to move all data to spinning disks so that i can take the entire cache down/remove it, reconfigure it, and then bring cache online again and move everything back to cache? I'm running on 6.9.2. Thank you! Quote Link to comment

Stop Docker and VM services under Settings Change Use Cache setting to Yes Run mover from Main tab to get files moved to array When ready to move them back: Change Use Cache setting to Prefer. Run mover from Main tab to get files moves to pool (cache) (optional) set Use Cache setting to Only to stop option for them being created on array in the future. 1 Quote Link to comment

Looks easy enough, now to find a good time to power down the VMs, as it also kills my internet connection. Thank's again! Quote Link to comment
