Cache Drive Space Issue


Recommended Posts

I had a question, not sure if best here, in the docker forum or the specific docker forum so wanted to start at the general level.

 

My cache drive is a 750GB SSD. It stores all my dockers and all my downloading/unpacking. unRAID reports it as 230GB used (including a 100GB zip set). With about 500GB free. NZBGet can not uncompress this file though do to space. The file is 100GB uncompressed, or very close too.

 

Would this issue be a cache drive issue? a docker issue? a NZBGet docker issue?

Have you tried running balance?

Not sure what balance is, unless you are referring to the unBALANCE plugin. That said, not sure how it would help since I am extracting the RAR files on the cache to the cache then moving the file. The space issue comes up on the extraction despite having enough space. I will retry and get diagnostics going, not sure if that will capture a dockers error though?

No not the unBALANCE plugin. 

 

On the Main tab click on "cache" and you'll see a button called "Balance" running this might help. 

 

Just be aware, your disk will get very warm for a few minutes.

A 100GB ZIP file? How big is it uncompressed?

 

Are you sure you're not actually running out of that 500GB of currently free space? If it's a movie, probably not, but if it's text files, you may have 80-90% compression and 100GB becomes 800-900GB when uncompressed. (Granted, that's a lot of text!!)
