So I am VERY happy with all of the Stablebit products. But there's one thing that seems to be shooting myself in the foot. (I think)
EDIT: So I began with my drives already filled to 60% before adding a cloud drive. This is to explain why my disks are so full already.
The balancer wants to throw everything into my cloud drive according to the blue arrows. I'm not sure why it would as that would be my entire data? Why does it think this is redundant? I have rules set to default and drives are healthy.
While the balancer does do this it chokes the disk that the cloud cache is sitting on until it has to throttle due to maxing out the cache drive.
I have a truck load of data that comes into the pool from a virtual machine but I have to sometimes set file placement rules (via plugin) to NOT place data on the cloud pool aka cloud cache drive. I typically have it go to Disk 1 as the balancer likes to empty that one.
I'm terrible at explaining things. Forgive me. If you need more details I will respond ASAP. Or, if you would like to advise on best practices what I should do.
