KyleS Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Unraid doesn't seem to have any real thought put into it. Mover continues to move to full disks and ignores quota assignments. Disk splitting continues to just fill full disks (500G is reserved, which I find to be ridiculous that this is ignored and disks fill to 64KB). Does anyone actually use this seriously? Besides shfs everything else seems to be completely worthless. What am I missing? Quote Link to comment

Mover respects allocation method, but note that split level overrides allocation method, so likely shares are not correctly configured. Quote Link to comment

Simply not correct. The disks aren't even included in the share and mover fills those disks anyway. Quote Link to comment
whipdancer Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 It works fine for me. Quote Link to comment

If folder(s) that correspond to the set split level exist on those disks data will still go there, like mentioned split level overrides allocation method. 1 Quote Link to comment
primeval_god Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 You would likely need to provide diagnostics for someone on the forum to provide help for your specific share layout. While I have no idea if it effects your layout or not one thing to keep in mind that trips up some people unfamiliar with unRAID is that cache drives are only for new files. Files that are already on the array will be modified in place and are never moved from disk to disk automatically. Applications that modify files in place can fill a disk beyond limits placed at the share level. Quote Link to comment

Besides shfs everything else seems to be completely worthless. What am I missing? Some of us have been using unraid since 2009 or earlier. Trust me it works. It might be just a slight misunderstanding of how things work or how they are to be setup. Looking at your Split Level you have it set to first level only. That means only the main folder will be split. 1 Quote Link to comment
Solution KyleS Posted December 16, 2022 Author Solution Share Posted December 16, 2022 Yeah - none of this reasonable. Here's a real solution. What a complete piss-off. Quote Link to comment
Kilrah Posted December 16, 2022 Share Posted December 16, 2022 Mover doesn't ignore your placement rules, it... follows them and does exactly what you've told it to do with your split level. Quote Link to comment

Your Split Level setting is probably prohibiting Unraid from picking a different disk. Would need examples of filenames (including full path) to confirm this. Quote Link to comment
