Installing Sage docker to cache drive

[wayner]

How do you install SageTV docker to a cache drive? Do you do a regular install and then copy the files over? Should I put the entire appdata partition on the cache drive? Do do I do that?

All you should need to do is check your Shares tab and make sure that the appdata share has "Use cache disk" set to Prefer (that's the setting I *cough* prefer anyway and I believe is the default if you installed your cache disk first when setting up unRAID--I didn't have to manually change anything anyway). You may also set it to Only, but that's a little less flexible in my view. Click on the Help button on the top right of the screen to get a description of the options. Anyway, you probably want the unRAID mover to move things around between cache and pool instead of manually doing things.

Oh, do the same thing for the system share.

(For me this was all automatically configured by unRAID defaults--smart little bugger.)

What is on the system share? I see that on my test system that the docker.img is 21.5GB - does this grow as I install other docker apps?

System share is where unRAID will keep some System related files (docker.img, for example). 21GB should be OK for the image... it will not grow, and if you run out of space on there, it tends to corrupt things. I have mine set to 50G... but I'm using 10G.
