Hi,

 

I have a question or two about the permit exclusive shares and if I should change my setup now I am on 6.12

 

I set changed my docker containers to cache only and then pointed the containers to /mnt/cache/appdata/ and also set the Docker directory to /mnt/cache/system/docker/docker/ to bypass FUSE and improve performance.

 

Would it be better with the permit exclusive shares if I tune it on and then point both folders back to /mnt/user/ location is is the other setup best practice?

 

Also how can you tell if a share is a exclusive share and bypassing FUSE?

The end result would be the same.

Open the shares page and look for the highlighted symbol, it means the share is exclusive:

 

Thanks 👍

I turned on permit exclusive shares but don't see this symbol on my shares tab. Any tips on how to correct this? Thanks 

You need to meet two requirements for the icon / exclusive share. Have Primary storage that is not the array and have no secondary storage.

 

I believe the reason for this is because the Array uses the fuse file system to work.

 

In the screenshot below you can see the only share with the icon is my Cache only share.

 

Thank you! You were absolutely right, I didn't have secondary storage set to none. I've done this now and the symbol came up. Do you only do this for the appdata share or also for the domains and system shares?

Please to have helped.

 

I use it for appdata and domains. I am looking to add a small zfs pool that I may use it for files I need faster access to.

Ok thanks. I'll add domains as well
