I searched through the forum and couldn't find an answer to this.
I use Davinci Resolve a lot to edit videos with my pool. I have DrivePool place Davinci Resolve's tmp files to a fast NVME to optimize the workflow. The tmp directory gets way larger than the 1TB limit of the NVME and DrivePool moves files off of the driveat 90%. The tmp directory is not duplicated.
Is there a way to tell DrivePool to move a non-duplicated directory onto the NVME? I don't want it there permanently. Just while I'm using the application. I don't want to pull the NVME out of the pool since there are times when it needs to be larger than 1TB and I'll just take the penalty.
This would allow me to have an extremely large tmp directory and choose the files that are placed on the fast NVME before I start with a particular project.
I have a couple ideas of how to do this outside drivepool but honestly if drivepool can do this then it'll simplify my file system setup drastically.
