Just folders. I just cleaned them all out, will keep an eye on it and open an issue if it persist.
 

Both with filename or using no filename but just a wildcard to keep an entire directory ignored.

Please check help description, do not use wildcard!

also not being ignored correctly.

Yep, also. Please check help text description

Thanks! Somehow I completely missed that.

I will add also fix in next version to remove *, /, /* at the end of skipped path. 

Becouse in code it's added after skipped path /* also. (that's why you don't need to add it) 

It doesn't look like the per share overrides are happening with the mover.

That indicates it should move files. The filtered filelist gets populated with a number of files from that share.

 

But then nothing is moved:

Moving threshold: 0% (0B) ; Freeing threshold: 95% (443GiB)

This is cache prefer threshold setting. 

If you are using cache yes, you should reset global config. By override some share temporary or change in global config setting then apply. 

 

For cache yes move threshold should be greater than freeing threshold. 

Mover is not moving to the expected percentage. I set it to move files down to 60%, however after the mover ran, it only went down to 79%. It should have moved at least 500GiB+ but it only moved 255GiB.

If I delete the mover tuning plugin and moved all files that are can be moved, my cache pool would go down to around 20%.

 

When I first installed the mover tuning plugin a few versions ago, it was working correctly as I expected. Every move brought the cache pool down to around 60%. After the previous 1 or 2 update, this was no longer the case and it only moved less than the expected file.

Not sure if this is revelant but my cache pool is zfs mirrored (I saw the changelog for this latest version regarding zfs percent calculation). But the cache pool was btrfs when I first installed the plugin and it was working correctly.

If I delete the mover tuning plugin and moved all files that are can be moved, my cache pool would go down to around 20%.

 

if you still know where the difference where between

 

moved files (or at least wished moved files) and filelists from /tmp/ca.mover.tuning/...list you may could have nailed it more down where the differences are ...

 

may could help debugging what happens (or better speaking, what is skipped ...)

what I meant by that was that the combined usage of all my cache:only shares only total up to about 20% of the cache pool.

That is the appdata, vm, system, etc... shares. 
So the files in those shares did not make it into the filtered file list. 

It is this part that I am curious about. There are 1376 files being considered for the moved. It should have selected 400 to 500 files at least, yet only 246 files were selected.

Yes the new formula shows 79% which matched the dashboard. But I don't think this is the cause of my problem.

Please open issue in github with logs etc I will check it

I've been encountering this issue since the latest update. My exclusion list no longer excludes files or directories in the text file. Sometimes, it ignores the last directory listed, which is logged as an error. Before the update, directories were excluded correctly, but specific files were not.

 

Mar 12 20:00:21 move: Error calculating size for /mnt/cache/data/media/tv/Seinfeld (1989)#015

if that's the whole error, and its dropped out the rest of the filename after the #015 then it's not handling the # in the filename properly.

 

There is nothing technically stopping you from using a # in a filename (honeslty not sure about folders, likely the same), but scripts need to be carefully written to handle them properly.

 

Best to avoid them if at all possible.

94 pages is just too much to read... is this being addressed for Unraid 7.0.1? : 

 

Deprecated plugin ca.mover.tuning.plg

Read that last couple of pages since it's where the relevant info for what just happened will be. Uninstall, reinstall the new one.

Error calculating size for /mnt/cache/data/media/tv/Seinfeld (1989)#015

In last version was added fix for ignore folders with [ symbol. 

If any problem open issue in github

Hello, I backup my appdata daily using the Appdata Backup Plugin (ABP), then post-run, I run a script that does some stuff then runs the mover using this command:

os.system("/usr/local/sbin/mover start")

So basically I want my mover runs to be tied with the Appdata backup, instead of relying on a fixed schedule.

 

I run (ABP) daily, and thus in effect my mover runs daily, and so far it has been working perfectly fine.

 

But see now, because of the Schedule setting in the Mover Tuning settings, the mover still gets triggered once a week. I want to disable that schedule, but maintain/keep the filters of Mover Tuning settings.

 

Is that not possible? Why can't we just disable the schedule?

 

This setting sounds confusing to me:

It says disable run based on schedule, but then says "setting effectively disables this plugin" (WITH THE FILTERS), and once put to Yes it collapses everything else. So it should be called instead "Completely disable Mover Tuning plugin". Am I understanding this correctly or..?

If you disable shedule the mover can't run automatically, but as wrote in text description you still can run it manually.

checked no issues for this name dir in current version: 

 

 

 

in case this is folder instead dataset in zfs will be fixed in next version , you can download and check file :

I will add also fix in next version to remove *, /, /* at the end of skipped path. 

Becouse in code it's added after skipped path /* also. (that's why you don't need to add it) 

So I just had it move files again overnight which were on the ignore list. I think I've tried all I can now, and for some reason it always leaves a few files behind, but moves most of them back onto the array. As you can see in the filtered file list log, the one at the very top (desolation of smaug), is on my ignore list and isn't moved. But the remaining of the files are from the other directories listed. 

I set the mover to reduce the cache size down to 50%, so I wonder if it has anything to do with that because before this if I set it to 60%, it wouldn't move all these files and would leave them alone for awhile. As if it gets below a certain threshold and it completely ignores the fact there's an ignore list, as those files are counted as the oldest of their creation date.

But will the filters still be applied? Disabling the schedule makes it seem not to!

Heya how can I use this plugin to effectively turn off mover?
I've found I prefer doing it manually just moving a bunch of downloads.

 

Or is there any easy way to say ONLY move files from this 'folder'.

So keep data/media/music/ on cache but can move data/media/tv & data/media/film when drive is nearly full.
