Mover: How to explicitly ignore directories to avoid Mover move it from cache to array

[luzfcb]

Hello, I would like to know how I can configure Mover to ignore arbitrary directories in Cache and thus avoid moving these files to the Array.

 

Problem:
 

I have Nextcloud installed via Nextcloud AIO. Nextcloud AIO is a docker application that manages docker itself (it has access to the docker socket), that is, it is Nextcloud AIO that creates, updates, fixes and removes all the containers necessary for Nextcloud to work.

I would like to prevent the Nextcloud image and video preview directory from being moved from the Cache to the Array, however, I want almost all the other data to be in the array and not in the Cache.

 

The question is: Is there any way to inform one or more directories so that Mover ignores them at all?
 

In my case, I want Mover to ignore the directory /mnt/user0/nextcloud_arquivos/appdata_oc1ualjr5msd/preview and all its subdirectories.

I could solve this with some changes to the Nextcloud container's mount points if I managed this container directly, however since it is managed via Nextcloud AIO, this is not possible (other options are not maintainable).

 

Is there a way natively in Unraid or via a plugin to define one or more arbitrary directories and then have Move ignore them recursively?

See if the mover tuning plugin will do what you want.

Hello! Did you ever figure this out? This is exactly what I'm looking to do but I'm unsure of how to go about it properly. Thank you in advance!
