Hi,

This is my first set up with unraid so still learning.

 

I will try to explain best i can.

so i have a share setup on array "Movies."

on my NVME i have a "download folder".

when i want to keep a movie from my downloads i move manual to my nvme folder called "Mover."

 

Mover is set up and does move to the Movies folder but creates another folder called Mover with files inside what do i need to do to stop this it's annoying.

 

basically i want the movies to move to my movies folder but not inside another folder called Mover.

I am confused - why not simply have a Movies folder on the NVME drive?

 

When you create a folder called Mover then it would normally automatically create a share of that name with default settings.   If you want that to always stay on the cache make sure that the Secondary Storage is set to None.

I did the above but now i have two copies of a movie.

 

Share name: Movies set on nvme

primary storage nvme

secondary storage array

mover action nvme to array

 

moves a copy but leaves one on the nvme i dont want that to happen what am i doing wrong.

 

doing it the way i originally did my first post worked but the annoying folder was remade.

Are you sure that the one left on the nvme is in the same folder?    The whole idea of mover is that after moving it from nvme to arrsy is that the nvme copy gets removed.

No this is not solved just tried again with no changes, and is not removing from nvme so i have two copies only difference this time was i tried the scedule.

So far my little time with unraid is proving very frustrating, i moved from synology.
