Mover not moving some files

Featured Replies

There's a few forms I read through and tired what was recommended, mainly setting shares with cache as primary storage and the array as the secondary to make sure the mover knew to move the files over.

 

However, there are still some files that refuse to move to the array, a single movie in my movies share and some appdata.

 

I did shut down the Docker and VMs so the only thing I can think is that the files are duplicates. How can I tell whats a duplicate and how were these duplicates created in the first place? How can I best resolve this?

 

Attached is the diagnostics. I ran the mover a few times just before downloading this.

 

 

Thanks!

One thing I'm not sure of is where the mover logs are. Another thread I read said make sure the move logs are enabled but I don't see anywhere to turn that on and couldn't find anything in searching.

Enable the mover logging, run the mover, post new diags, as well as the share name(s) that have data you want moved.

For anyone else having trouble finding the mover logging. Mover settings are in the scheduler settings.

I set this to enable, disabled Docker, and ran the mover again a couple times at 06:34-06:35 local time. The shares that the files are called 'appdata' and 'Movies'.

Files already exist on destination, mover doesn't overwrite files, you'll need to check which ones are more recent and delete the other copy.

I know this is an old thread but just in case anyone is having a similar problem like I was and this post comes up in google.

 

In my case, this was happening with some movies and files. The Mover would move the folders and some files, but the movies would stay in the cache. I realized this happened with the movies that were still active in Transmission. Even if it wasn't being uploaded and I had already changed their name and folder from downloads to Movies. The second I went and hit "pause" on Transmission, the mover worked right away.

this is because you have new data being written and data being told to store on the primary... your transmion data should be set to a single primary location.
