Move will not move any files off the cache for a share that has a space in the name... anyone got suggestions?  I've tried creating a symbolic link, which has been my go to in the past, but apparently unnoticed by me, they no longer display or use symbolic links on the fuse file system.  Creating one won't visibly show in /mnt/user (even though it exists) and thus fuse won't see and mover won't run on it.

Is the pool in ZFS format?   Wondering if this is a ZFS oddity?

Where does that mvlogger come from?

 

Enable the regular mover logging, run the mover, post the diagnostics.

No, it's not a ZFS pool.  It's an XFS pool.  It used to work until one of the latest updates just fine. I've had this share since I created the pool years and years ago.

 

 

Do you have the Mover Tuning plugin installed (the log messages you posted do not look like standard Unraid)?   If so you try booting in Safe Mode to disable plugins and see if it then works.

I found the issue I was having with the "Mover Tuning" plugin on Unraid 7.0.0 by Andrew Zawadzki, hugenbdd, and Reynald. The problem was in handling spaces within share paths.

 

The file /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/ca.mover.tuning/age_mover needs a few code edits.

Line 592 (Replace)

FINDSTR="find $SHAREPATH ! -path \"/mnt/user*\" -type f -depth "

With 

FINDSTR="find \"$SHAREPATH\" -type f -depth -not -path \"/mnt/user*\""

 

 

Line 594 (Replace)

FINDSTR="find $SHAREPATH -type f -depth "

With

FINDSTR="find \"$SHAREPATH\" -type f -depth"

 

Line 677 (Replace)

FINDSTR+=" -printf '%T@|%s|%S|%n|%i|%p|\0' | awk -v RS='\0' -v FS='|' -v SPARSENESS=\$SPARSENESS -v PRIMARYSTORAGENAME=\$PRIMARYSTORAGENAME -v SECONDARYSTORAGENAME=\$SECONDARYSTORAGENAME -v SHARENAME=\$SHARENAME -v SHAREUSECACHE=\$SHAREUSECACHE -v PRIMARYSIZETHRESH=\$PRIMARYSIZETHRESH"

With these new lines:

FINDSTR="$FINDSTR -printf '%T@|%s|%S|%n|%i|%p|\0'"
FINDSTR="$FINDSTR | awk -v RS='\0' -v FS='|' \
    -v SPARSENESS='$SPARSENESS' \
    -v PRIMARYSTORAGENAME='$PRIMARYSTORAGENAME' \
    -v SECONDARYSTORAGENAME='$SECONDARYSTORAGENAME' \
    -v SHARENAME='$SHARENAME' \
    -v SHAREUSECACHE='$SHAREUSECACHE' \
    -v PRIMARYSIZETHRESH='$PRIMARYSIZETHRESH'"

 

 

This change properly handles paths with spaces, preventing errors during the mover operation.

Hope this helps others running into the same issue!

Adding -depth back in.

That worked a treat, thank you DToX_

i made pull request for plugin but not removed  -depth  :  

 

            FINDSTR="find \"$SHAREPATH\" ! -path \"\"/mnt/user*\"\" -type f -depth \"" # or maybe fix spaces FINDSTR="find \"$SHAREPATH\" -type f -not -path \"/mnt/user*\""            
        else
            FINDSTR="find \"$SHAREPATH\" -type f -depth " #or FINDSTR="find \"$SHAREPATH\" -type f"

 

Please fill free to update  ....

@Masterwishx A few things to note,

 

I removed "-depth" while I was testing, but it should be left in. I will update my comment to reflect that. 

Quote

In the find command, the -depth flag tells find to process a directory's contents before the directory itself.
This means it will traverse the directory tree in a depth-first manner: 
- Files and subdirectories within a directory are processed first.
- The directory is processed only after all its children have been processed.

 

This command is roughly the same, I broke it out because I was having issues with it being so nested. I prefer my version as it's much more readable.

FINDSTR="$FINDSTR -printf '%T@|%s|%S|%n|%i|%p|\0'"
FINDSTR="$FINDSTR | awk -v RS='\0' -v FS='|' \
    -v SPARSENESS='$SPARSENESS' \
    -v PRIMARYSTORAGENAME='$PRIMARYSTORAGENAME' \
    -v SECONDARYSTORAGENAME='$SECONDARYSTORAGENAME' \
    -v SHARENAME='$SHARENAME' \
    -v SHAREUSECACHE='$SHAREUSECACHE' \
    -v PRIMARYSIZETHRESH='$PRIMARYSIZETHRESH'"

 

Anyway, thanks for taking the time to push this code up.

The old line code not working ...

I am also impacted by this Mover Tuning Plugin bug.  Caused my cache to fill up and made a mess.
