Moving files between cache pools?


Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I wanted to ask just to be sure before doing something very stupid..

 

I've upgraded my server and with it comes a new nvme drive that I want to use for Dockers. I've created the new cache called cache_nvme, and set Shares "appdata" and "system" to prefer the new cache_nvme.

 

The files are however still left on the old cache, and I've tried to find the "correct" way to move it. Should I:

  1. Set the shares to Yes: Cache_nvme
  2. Invoke the mover
  3. Set the shares to Prefer: cache_nvme
  4. Invoke the mover

 

Or is there a better way? I guess I could disable Docker and move with terminal from /mnt/cache/appdata/ to /mnt/cache_nvme/appdata, but that kind of sounds more risky to me.

 

Thanks!
