August 27, 20241 yr recently my cache drives filled up and maxed out and since then ive had some issues with my torrent docker. could also be my fault I manually moved some files to the array--there were a bunch of files sitting on the cache drive. not entirely sure what the culprit is... did some searching and found multiple answers so figured I'd reach out here. any help would be greatly appreciated. aristo-diagnostics-20240827-0725.zip
August 27, 20241 yr Community Expert You should set Minimum Free Space values for both of your pools to stop them filling up completely.
August 27, 20241 yr Author yes I will do that for sure and was thinking that's how it was set--not entirely sure how or when I set it to allow them to fill up completely
August 27, 20241 yr Author my cache drives are formatted btrfs and seems to have gone read-only. mover doesn't seem to do anything either. can I move things manually?
August 28, 20241 yr Move requires a write to delete the source file, so no, you can't move things from a read only volume. What you can do is COPY what you need, then deal with the issue. Files with corruption detected won't be able to be copied, so work in small batches. If the file copies without error, it should be intact.

One way is to use the dynamix file manager plugin, copy from the damaged pool to an array disk or another pool. Pick a destination that has plenty of free space.
