lawrence1986 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 I install this patch, and I have my system share set to cache only, but in fixing the common problem, it tells me that the system share is set to cache-only, but files and folders exist on the array, but if I change it from cache only as my primary storage to cache and my secondary storage to array, and my Mover action to cache to array, the error goes away in fixing common problems.

Sounds as the mover should be set to array->cache if you want the files to end up on the cache. Quote Link to comment

itimpi Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Those settings are correct for Giles to end up on the cache. You need to disable the docker and VM services under settings and then run mover to transfer files to the cache. After doing that you can re-enable docker and VM services. If any files will not move it may mean you have duplicates on the cache and the array as mover will not overwrite existing files, and you need to take manual action to delete the unneeded duplicate. once you have the shares completely on the cache you can improve performance of them by removing the array as secondary storage, and then enabling Exclusive shares under Settings->Global Share settings.

Thank you so much, Itimpi, for solving my issue. I didn't even know that file was on the array; it was on disk 2. I must have missed it working buttery smooth with no more errors. But I'm still confused by the fact that it didn't pick it up sooner. I normally run fix common problems every 1 to 3 days just for maintenance. weird Quote Link to comment
