I'm trying to use mover to move my "data" share.  I am out of space on my "Large_SSD" pool device, which is 4TB.  When I invoke Mover, it immediately seems to complete and stops running (from what I can tell on the UI, as the Mover button is available to be pressed again after running a second before).

The primary storage for data is Large_SSD, the secondary storage is Array.  Mover action is set for Large_SSD->Array.  I'm not sure when this stopped working but it has worked before, I've had Unraid for years now and this was set up correctly before (meaning, the mover did what was expected).

I'm on Unraid 7.0.0 beta 2 now, but I am pretty sure this was an issue before I moved to the beta.  Not 100% sure, but like 99% sure.

Diagnostics included in the post.

Try removing the Mover Tuning plugin  and then try again.

 

itimpi, that seems to be spot on!!!!!!!!!  I removed it, hit mover, and now it's staying grayed out like it's actually working on it.  Is this some sort of known issue?  And thank you so much, that was very helpful!

It seems to be a common problem.

 

Not sure why though, and you may well find you can reinstall the plugin and mover will keep running as expected.

Thanks itimpi!

 

I was having a similar problem invoking mover. Once I removed mover tuning, I was able to run mover. 

 

I had followed spaceinvader's cache upgrade guide to remove a cache RAID-1 BTRFS pool and replace with a single drive ZFS. That went good. It was just when I was trying to move the files back from the array to the cache that I ran into problems.
