May 6, 20251 yr Hi, I tried install SSD as cache and move Docker appdat to that cache. I am not sure how to check if it is working. Can some1 please look at this? nasunraid-diagnostics-20250507-0049.zip
May 7, 20251 yr Community Expert You need more than appdata moved off the array. system share should also be moved. You will have to go to Settings - Docker and disable before you can work with these files. Much more importantly, you have your default appdata path as /mnt/cache. Any folder at the top level of disks or pools is automatically a user share. So if you put things in /mnt/cache you are going to be creating a lot of separate user shares. You need to make it something like /mnt/cache/appdata.
May 7, 20251 yr Community Expert Sorry in your case, instead of system share, which you don't have, you have made your docker.img in a share named unraid_docker. So that is the share that needs to be on cache. You are really making things more complicated for yourself by not accepting the defaults for these paths. Many docker templates may assume you have the defaults, so you will have to constantly be sure to edit them to conform to your non-standard way of doing things. Why do you think you need 80G docker.img?
May 7, 20251 yr Author To be honest, I don't remember my line of thougts, so I probably don't need it. I did new config for docker. Is it better now? nasunraid-diagnostics-20250507-0544.zip
May 7, 20251 yr Community Expert Your appdata is still on disk1. Simply changing it to only use cache won't move anything. 15 hours ago, trurl said: You will have to go to Settings - Docker and disable before you can work with these files. Set appdata to Primary:cache; Secondary:array; Mover action:array->cache Then run mover, wait for it to complete, post new diagnostics.
May 8, 20251 yr Author I also change cashe ssd for bigger one. Now docker.img should have 20GB and live in cache and appdata should be also in cache. nasunraid-diagnostics-20250508-0508.zip
May 8, 20251 yr Community Expert Solution Your diagnostics show that 'appdata' still appears to have something on disk1. appdata shareUseCache="only" # Share exists on cache, disk1 With the 'only' setting any files on the array are left there. To get them moved you need Primary:cache, Secondary:array mover direction array->cache. Also because open files cannot be moved you should have the Docker service disabled while moving these appdata files. Only after that has completed can you remove the secondary entry to revert to the 'only' setting.
May 26, 20251 yr Author Hi, you were right I didnt stop docker that why some data left on array. Now it is lookig good. nasunraid-diagnostics-20250526-2234.zip
