December 4, 20241 yr I currently have 1 Unraid server hosting my array, cache pool, dockers, VM's and apps. I'm currently maxed out on array drives for my Supermicro SC846 chassis at 24 x 18TB drives and storage is becoming very slim. I need to spin up a new Unraid server with a second SC846 with an identical hardware setup and need help with figuring out how it all is going to work with my Plex, the arrs, and download clients. I understand that I can spin up a second Unraid server and mount it to the first one so that my Plex docker can see the files on the second array. I do not understand how the arrs and download clients interact with the second server. Does anyone have experience with this sort of situation and can lend your thoughts on the matter? There are a few thoughts of my own that seem like possible solutions but I would like some more input. Moving bulk of the files to the second server and letting the first server fill up again with the usual docker flow (mount second server to first server so arrs continue to work) Leave all files on first server and migrating all arrs and download client dockers to second server (mount first server to second server so arrs continue to work) ?? My servers would all be on 10G switches if that matters any. Edited December 4, 20241 yr by FlyAg Additional Info
