Mover refuses to move files from Cache to Disks (SOLVED)

Featured Replies

I have tried everything but the mover button does not seem to move any files from my cache pool to my disks. Could someone please help me out?

Except for your cache-only shares, these are the only ones with files on cache:

p-----k                           shareUseCache="yes"     # Share exists on cache, disk1, disk2, disk3, disk4, disk5, disk7
c-----t                           shareUseCache="no"      # Share exists on cache
l-----y                           shareUseCache="no"      # Share exists on cache, disk1, disk2, disk3, disk4, disk5, disk6, disk7
p------s (1)                      shareUseCache="no"      # Share exists on cache, disk1, disk3

And p-----k is the only one of those configured to be moved.

Also, looks like you removed mover tuning plugin just before getting those diagnostics. You should definitely try without that plugin.

I recently added a file to test the mover for the share (p-----k) and the mover successfully moved that file. However, the files within the share l-----y were still not moved. Is my configuration wrong for this share?

I also removed the plugin and rebooted as you recommended.

I noticed that new shares work as expected with the mover.

That share has duplicate configurations, probably caused by specifying it with different upper/lower case. The share which has contents is not configured to be moved, but the configuration in your screenshot has no contents.

What do you get from command line with this?

ls -lah /boot/config/shares

When I run that command that share (l-----y) is capitalized even though in the unRAID gui it is lowercase.

  • Solution

Delete the .cfg file for that share, then configure it again from the webUI.

Linux is case sensitive, so make sure you don't have a docker or something else configured to reference it with the wrong case.

Thank you so much! Everything is working as expected.
