Using unraid 6.1.7

 

Is there a way to prevent unraid from counting the free space of the cache disk to a cache disk enabled share?

 

Because the problem responding from this i that users are showed that there are for example 3TB free space left on the share, when thats not the truth.

Because there are ony 1TB left on the Array and 2TB on the Cache disk.

If then users write 2TB of data. 1TB will not be written into the array when the mover starts because after 1TB of data there is no more space left in the array. And the data in the cache drive remains unprotected from disk failure.

any ideas on this?

It can not be changed, it is the way emhttp calculates disk space.

 

Some time (years) ago a similar discussion was held in this forum, you might want to do a search and get more background information.

 

thanks for the info.

Changed topic title to it.
