March 23, 200917 yr Author The reason the Mover does not delete empty directories is because of a race condition encountered during testing. One of the mover tests involves moving files from cache to array while new files are being simultaneously created. A samba operation crashed when a file being created via samba in a directory occurred right when the directory got deleted by the mover. This problem has not been fully investigated, but the "workaround" is to just leave empty directories in place. This does not cause any issue whatsoever except for when you list the cache disk directly you see a bunch of empty directories (but they all correspond to real directories on the array). Next beta is posted which addresses the bugs in this thread.
