September 30, 20241 yr Maybe not properly related to this group, but will start here. Just moved my stuff from old rig. New rig was set upp with disk 5-12 mapped during trials. Old rig had 1-12 or so. On transfer of license, I set up new rig with 1-8 mapped (still no parity active). When restoring dockers from Appdata Backup I didn't think long enough, and just left the previous mapping of my Deluge container /downloads > /mnt/disk9/noshare/deluge/ and started the container. Everything runs fine, downloads being done and copying finished to /mnt/disk9/noshare/deluge/done, as expected. I can see from CLI /mnt/Disk9... etc, and copy out files from there. But since I haven't yet assigned a Disk9, it is not listed in the Main array list. Now I am just curious and worried of what is actually backing these files. Are they saved inside the container, or on the flash? Maybe the cache drive with appdata folder? I checked with lsblk, but no sign of it there (not even / mount point listed) Any ideas, or suggestions where to check? I'll see if current DLs can finish, and stop to reconfigure after that. Keeping an eye on the disk utilisations of flash, docker image and cache until then. I can provide screens or CLI output, if someone would find it helpful. Lars Olof
September 30, 20241 yr Author Running on root file system in RAM? rootfs on /mnt type rootfs (rw,size=98752492k,nr_inodes=24688123,inode64) That would be the next step up in mounted FS in the system, wouldn't it? Haven't ever had a reason to consider what a rootfs is. Guess I'll know soon... Lars Olof
October 1, 20241 yr Community Expert Solution Any invalid path will write to RAM, it will fill up rootfs, and lost after a reboot.
October 1, 20241 yr Author Thanks, JorgeB, that confirms my research. Out of curiosity, is there a limit to the rootfs when mounted, or will it just use up all available memory? I have managed to stop the Deluge docker, and moved away the files from that path. Will have to reboot from command line now, since the webgui didn't like to be lacking RAM.
