Shares using cache when set to no


Recommended Posts

Hi all, 

 

So i have a "Media" share that is set to not use the cache, however it seems under some types of operation the share is using the cache drive. 

 

When downloading movies via Radarr, everything works perfectly - downloaded to "downloads" share which is on the cache then Radarr moves to the "media" share on the array. however is i just download a movie manually without radarr i need to manually move to the array once i cleaned up the movie title/ folder name etc etc. 

 

For this i used to use Krusader however i noticed that when i did movies would be copied to a Media folder on the cache drive. i then this weekend spotted a video from SpaceInvaderOne, or Gridrunner on these forums in which he setup a rootshare - so i thought i would give this ago and still no joy.

 

What did work is when i had each share mapped as a drive in windows and i copied from one to another however this has obvious drawbacks (speed being the main one)

 

i have tried setting the share to use cache then set it back to no.

 

Thanks for any advice guys.

Krusader will effectively bypass any include / exclude settings when moving from user share to user share because everything is under the same mountpoint (/UNRAID mapped to /mnt/)

 

You can however copy from disk share to disk share (copy from /UNRAID/cache/Movies/xxx to /UNRAID/disk2/Movies).  But you have to be very careful to not copy from disk shares to user shares and vice versa as you will corrupt the file)
