Using Mover - can you tell it what disk to move files to?


Recommended Posts

I've always copied files to particular disks in my array.  Now that I installed a cache drive and utilize the mover utility - it picks the drive.  I'd like to continue filling up a particular drive but it 'tops off' drives I've stopped copying to because they are almost full (but not full enough for mover to continue using it). 

 

Is there a way to say 'move to disk 19'...  or don't move to disk 1?

No. Well maybe with a bit of work changing your share options around (Excludes, Includes, Split Levels, Fill Modes (Least Full, High-water...etc) you could force the logic system to pick what you want...  but without doing that or going in an modifying the mover script manually there isn't a way to exert manual control.

 

You could disable mover and do your moves manually since that's what you've always done.
