EDIT2: actually its not solved. So heres my case.

 

I have 4 disks (shown here):

 

My mover script is currently running but only seems to move between disks 1 and 3 (as you can see disk 4 still has a tremendous amount of space) so i don't understand why it isn't copying to disk 4. It accessed disk 4 for maybe 30 minutes, wrote a small amount of data and then switched back to disk 1. All my shares are set to high water with minimum of 40GB, i left the disk include/exclude blank, so i'm not really sure why its not writing much data to disk 4.

 

 

 

Infact just as i was writing this post i saw unraid spin up disk4 and watch the used% go up to 26% and then it spun up disk1 and started writing to it again.

 

I'm running unraid 4.7 my system specs are the same as the ones recommended in eskros 16 drive build.

And i would post my system log but it is literally just 4,000 lines of stuff like this:

Nov 29 12:20:01 Void logger: >f+++++++++ TV Shows/Blue Mountain State/Season 2/Blue Mountain State.S02E12.Trap Game.avi

Nov 29 12:20:16 Void logger: ./TV Shows/Blue Mountain State/Season 2/Blue Mountain State.S02E10.Hockey.avi

Nov 29 12:20:16 Void logger: .d..t...... TV Shows/Blue Mountain State/Season 2/

Nov 29 12:20:16 Void logger: >f+++++++++ TV Shows/Blue Mountain State/Season 2/Blue Mountain State.S02E10.Hockey.avi

Nov 29 12:20:29 Void logger: ./TV Shows/Blue Mountain State/Season 2

Nov 29 12:20:29 Void logger: .d..t...... TV Shows/Blue Mountain State/Season 2/

 

if that is somehow useful to you i can post it.

It's a split level setting. For example, the split level = 2 setting on the "TV Shows" share means each complete season goes to a single disk. So, once a season is started on a disk all new files added to that season go to that disk.

ah thanks that makes sense now that i think about it haha. thanks!
