JorgeB Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 Just now, superloopy1 said: and your link just goes to the end for me. Something wrong with your browser them links are correct, but here it is: How do I replace/upgrade my single cache device? (unRAID v6.2 and above only) This procedure assumes that there are at least some dockers and/or VMs related files on the cache disk, some of these steps are unnecessary if there aren't. Stop all running Dockers/VMs Settings -> VM Manager: disable VMs and click apply Settings -> Docker: disable Docker and click apply Click on Shares and change to "Yes" all cache shares with "Use cache disk:" set to "Only" or "Prefer" Check that there's enough free space on the array and invoke the mover by clicking "Move Now" on the Main page When the mover finishes check that your cache is empty (any files on the cache root will not be moved as they are not part of any share) Stop array, replace cache device, assign it, start array and format new cache device (if needed), check that it's using the filesystem you want Click on Shares and change to "Prefer" all shares that you want moved back to cache On the Main page click "Move Now" When the mover finishes re-enable Docker and VMs Quote Link to comment

superloopy1 Posted June 24, 2018 Author Share Posted June 24, 2018 Well ... that all went reasonably well and all i have left on the cache drive is a docker image and, what appears to be a ghost share entry. Can i just delete the docker image and recreate it when docker is restarted eithout any adverse effect? As for the ghost ...it references a share which, when looking at the collective share shows the files as being on disk1 only yet when looking at it from the cache iself shows on there also. So two differing views but will it stop me emptying the cache disk completely. Or should i just pull the cache drive, replace it and see whats left?

superloopy1 Posted June 24, 2018 Author Share Posted June 24, 2018 Update ... mover ran last night and has now cleaned up the ghost entry so i'm only asking about that docker image ... Sent from my LG-D855 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment

Was the docker service disabled when the mover ran? If you have a docker tab available in the GUI, it won't move the docker image, and if you reenable docker after the move and the vdisk location references /mnt/cache or the system share is cache prefer the image will be recreated on the cache.

superloopy1 Posted June 24, 2018 Author Share Posted June 24, 2018 Thanks ... i'm sorted now. Yes, i had moved all docker appdata stuff earlier. All that was left was the docker image which i deleted. Cache swapped and all mover'ed back on successfully. Docker reenabled and images repulled. All *looks* to be fine.

BBLV Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Digging this up from the graveyard. I'm trying to swap cache drives and disabled VM and then Docker per the instructions above. After doing that I'm not able to access the Unraid webui... Any reason why this would happen?? Quote Link to comment
