November 29, 20241 yr Hello I should have watched: I did not, and I made a mistake. I thought I could mark all my shares "Array" from cache, run the mover and then change out my cache drives. So I marked all shares as "array". So now, all shares think they are on the Array, but there are folders, especially my "appdata" still on the cache. I made this change a couple of days ago. Again, thinking I could run mover after marking things Array, and good to go. I clearly see I should have marked the Array as secondary, then run the mover, then, when complete, changed my drive. All my docker apps seem to be running. However, I'm not sure if they are running from Array or still accessing cache, since data is on there. Is there a way to bring the data together, sync everything back into Array, and then for me to upgrade my nvme cache? I know this is all user error, but if there is a helpful path forward, I would appreciate it! Thanks!
November 29, 20241 yr Community Expert Any existing files will still be accessed on cache, any new ones would have been created on the array. So set the shares right and run the mover to move everything to array (with Docker/VM services stopped of course)
November 29, 20241 yr Author Wait, so mark them again as Cache, with Array as the secondary? Then run the mover
November 30, 20241 yr Author OK. I wasn't sure if I could still do that. I felt like I messed it up by marking it "all array" first for a couple of days. If it's as easy as going back and doing Cach -> Array, then mover, that's awesome. Thanks for the reassurance. Next time I'll do more home work before just clicking!
