Cache Pool vs Array for shares

Featured Replies

Hi everyone,

 

Just want to make sure I'm following best practices here. My shares config:

My main concern is with appdata and system.

I have all Docker containers pointing to /mnt/cache, is it still a good idea to move these to the array for safety (cache -> array)? The cache pool is btrfs raid 1 and appdata is backed up daily to an external disk.

 

What about system? 

 

I'm trying to strike a balance between array being able to spin down and keeping my data safe. Open to suggestions.

 

Thanks!

If you move them from cache, then they won't be at /mnt/cache

 

appdata, domains, system should be on fast pool such as cache. You can backup these to some other share on the array, but that is nothing to do with the settings for these shares.

Does this remain true if I'm setting up containers like this?

Does mover remove the files after moving? I was hoping the files would be on both cache and appdata with appdata acting as a kind of automated backup.

Move means copy from source to destination then delete from source.

 

The user share system, and mover, do not make backups.
