#Unraid setup cache drive how to#
My guess is its because the owner of the files is a user name I dont know that plex have created and has now dissapeared as I deleted docker and plex with it.Ĭan you login as root to telnet or console? That is the way I would have recommended but wasn't sure if you knew how to work at the command line.You can absolutely use an SSD, and yes it does have a "shorter" life span, but if you're using a newer SSD (like the Samsung 850/950 etc) then it shouldn't be an issue for the non-enterprise users.
#Unraid setup cache drive mac#
I want Plex and Crashplan to run very soon, just need to solve this first.īut you might be right that its easiest to deal with the issues one at the time.Ī problem is though that I can not delete the appdata folder, the files in there that plex have made gives me an error on my mac every time i try to delete them. Many of the templates assume you have already created a cache-only appdata share. The reason it got created is likely because you just accepted the defaults from a docker template, not necessarily bad but you should have some idea if it is appropriate for your usage. Since you're not really using it yet it might be simpler to just delete the data in appdata, then delete the share, then explicitly recreate the share as cache-only. I have deleted plex and its docker container, will get that to work after I am finished with the cache issues. That folder is also a share and is now located on one of my data drives. I tried to get Plex to work and was not in much luck, but Plex made a folder called Appdata. Only top level folders not configured as cache-only shares will get moved. Also, mover will ignore any files at the top level of cache. Many people have had their applications quit working because they overlooked this. This will prevent mover from moving that data off the cache drive. In those cases, you would make a share (appdata, for example) and set it to Use cache: Only. People typically also use their cache for dockers, VMs, plugin data, etc. You may want to pay some attention to the other things I said about the Use cache settings for shares I mentioned before. In 6b15, Mover schedule is in Scheduler Settings. I have set all my user shares to use the cache, as it is 128GB there should be enough space untill the mover script runs every night.ĭo I need to set the mover script or is there a good enough default setting I dont need to tinker with? The many stupid small shares went away when I formated the cache, so maybe they were remains from the Linux install.
#Unraid setup cache drive license#
I have been running unRAID for quite some time now but only the other day I got serious and finally bought a license and now want to learn the real magic behind this system. There are 3 settings for Use cache disk: Yes, No, Only.Īhh. Most people only put cache-only shares on the cache drive, and let unRAID take care of the normal user share that are set to be cached. Considering this, most likely you don't really need a bunch of top level folders on cache and should decide how to reorganize. In particular, any folders at the top level of cache are a user share and will be moved to the array if you don't make the share cache-only. If you don't configure a share it has default configuration. Any folder at the top level of cache or an array drive is automatically a user share.
