Best app for checking cache disks

[MrMooreIOM]

Hey All,

 

recently noticed my cache disks are filling up and the mover doesn’t seem to clear anything up. So I’m thinking something’s been partially downloaded and got stuck on the cache disk. Do you know of any good apps to check what the largest dirs on the cache disks are. Or am I best going into terminal and checking that way

I dunno what the best app is and I'm fairly new to Unraid, but my first thought is to try the terminal.

 

If you cd into /mnt/cache, you can run the disk usage command like this:

root@Truesource:/mnt/cache# du -h --max-depth=1
5.4G    ./system
18G     ./appdata
129G    ./domains
1.5G    ./isos
143G    ./Saidar
296G    .

From there, you can cd into the subdirs and run it again to isolate the problem. Once found, use an rm -r on the problem child directory. Just make sure you actually have any data you're about to delete and want to keep saved elsewhere.

Changed the word "folder" to "directory." Sorry, I live in a Windows world most of the time!

Possibly you have some shares misconfigured. Post diagnostics.

That doesn't show your cache anywhere near full. And appdata and system shares are on cache where they belong, and no other shares are currently using any of cache. So there is nothing for mover to do.

 

What are you looking at the makes you think your cache is filling up?
