This is a bit of an odd one, but I noticed recently whenever I accessed the web portal for UnRAID, one of my disks would spin up.

 

So I went looking for what was on that disk, and there is a system folder with docker.img in it... But the system share is set to cache prefer.

 

So I went to check the system share again, and it appears both the docker image and VM storage is on both a disk and the cache.

 

Here is the share images:

 

 

 

Now I do want to resolve this, but I want to make sure I don't break anything in the process. Those screenshots of the libvert.img and the docker.img appear to show the one file exists on both the cache and disk1/disk2.

 

Can anyone please help me out? I'm not sure when this would have happened, I did add a cache drive to the cache pool a week ago, but not sure how adding a drive would get those files moved to a disk.

Disable both VM and Docker services, run the mover, re-enable services.

Hi Jorge,

 

I've disabled those services, run the mover for just the system share, but these files are still spread across:

 

Mover run:

 

 

Still there on the drives:

Enable the mover logger, run the mover again and post diagnostics.

Done and attached.

 

The only other thing I was considering as a solution was to check which instance of the docker.img was most recent, and delete the other one, then run mover. Might be there is a conflict with there being two versions of the one file. Just checked now and the versions of these files on the disks are from 2022. the versions of the cache are from a few minutes ago (screenshots):

Correct, mover won't overwrite a file, delete the older one, docker.img can also be easily recreated if needed.
