I am running Squeezebox product on HP EX495 server. It works fantastically.
However, I recently encountered a problem with the system partition of the server filling up. As far as I can tel now, it seems that the biggest usage of space is Squeezebox for its cache. The server does not allocate a lot of space for the system partition because it uses the remainder of available space for backups and media collection files. The space is so tight that it will sometimes hangup and I have to delete some log files just to get enough to continue to run. Why does the cache use so much space - on my system it is currently 7.4GB out of the available total of 20GB. Is there a way to point the cache at a different drive on the server? ( I currently have 3TB of storage space in separate drives, with 2.4TB free.) Should the cache be regularly cleaned out? And if I do that, what am I losing? Also, that would seem a limiting factor in how much music could be maintained on the system. Since this is a server, it would be nice to be able to set it up and ignore it. If one has to do regular cleanups, it is not set and forget. At this point, can I run the cache cleanup and be assured that I do not have to reload anything or re-enter information? Will that back down the space used by the cache or will it rescan and go right back to where it was? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tspyder's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=41771 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=96355 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
