johnny2678 Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 (edited) Share 'use cache pool' setting: YES - expectation is "If there is insufficient space on the Cache disk/pool, then new files and directories are created on the array. When the mover is invoked, files and subdirectories are transferred off the Cache disk/pool and onto the array." - from the UI help tips. Cache is 2x256GB Samsung EVO 860s in Raid0. Some other posts recommended setting a minimum free space in Settings -> Global Share Settings but that settings seems to be missing from 6.9.x. If it was removed in lieu of the 'minimum free space' setting you can set per cache pool, I can't get that setting to stick. Stop array, update the value to something 2GB, and it returns back to 0 when I click apply (see animation below). Attaching diagnostics First timer with unraid. Understand that we should probably turn off cache for initial bulk data moves, but shouldn't this skip the cache and copy to the array if the cache is full? 15620-beast-diagnostics-20200830-0921.zip Edited August 31, 2020 by johnny2678 drive details Quote Link to comment

johnny2678 Posted August 31, 2020 Author Share Posted August 31, 2020 thx for linking that thread @trurl - good to know it's not just me Mover is running as we speak and I'll disable cache during bulk file operations until the next release. Quote Link to comment
