Unraid OS 7.1.2

I noticed recently that the Mover Tuning plugin wasn't respecting my split level configuration for my shares. After diving deeper into the issue, it seems to be that the user0 path for writing directly to the array doesn't respect split levels or excluded disks from my testing.

I created a share called Test, and made a directory and file on disk1 and set its split level to manual. When I create a new file via /mnt/user/Test/test.txt the file is put onto disk1, as expected. But when creating a file via /mnt/user0/Test/test.txt its put onto disk6, which is also an excluded disk.

I'm not sure if this is intended behavior, so I'm looking to see if anyone else has the same sort of experience or if this is known to be correct?

I believe that the allocation method is still expected to work with /mnt/user0, but let me try to see if I can find out anything more.

Strangely enough, after rebooting my server while testing some other stuff, it looks like it's now putting the files on the correct disks so far from my limited testing. I'll report back if I have further issues but seems to have fixed itself somehow for the moment.

Curious, I could duplicate the issue with allocation method before, but it's also working for me now, there could be other factors involved.
