October 24, 2025Oct 24 Good morning. A "strange" question on unraid 7.1.4 I just added a single ssd cache drive, and created a share on it. No redundancy, of course, and the share is called "test". As soon I started the array the only other custom share (called "tuttecose") raised an alert, "some or all files unprotected". But:Compute on the share tuttecose reports 0bytes on cache-ssd (the name of the pool) pool Primary storage (for new files and folders) of the tuttecose share is on array onlygrep -E "shareUseCache|shareCachePool" /boot/config/shares/tuttecose.cfg reportsshareUseCache="no"shareCachePool=""shareCachePool2=""so, as far as I understand, the main share "tuttecose" is not using the ssd-cache pool.So, why I have "some or all files unprotected" on the main "tuttecose" share ?Thanks in advance

October 24, 2025Oct 24 Author I understand but the main share seems to have nothing to do with the cache pool,and:grep -E "shareUseCache|shareCachePool" /boot/config/shares/tuttecose.cfg reportsshareUseCache="no"shareCachePool=""shareCachePool2=""what I am missing ?

October 24, 2025Oct 24 Community Expert Solution From the diags:# Share exists on disk1, disk2, disk3, cache-ssdNote that it just needs to exist on the pool to show the warning.You can go to Shares, and then click on Calculate for that share, it will show where it exists.
October 24, 2025Oct 24 Author Thanks everyone. I must have messed up my first attempt. I redid everything from scratch, and now the SSD cache is seen as the only unprotected share.
