<div class=Section1>
<p class=MsoNormal>I’ve got 3 BE’s each with 2 storage drives. They
are all connected to a nice gigabit switch and use NFS and mount points so that
all the BE’s have access to all recording dirs. All the storage drives
are added to the default SG. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I would like myth to balance the recordings across all the
drives based on free space rather than ‘local’ vs. ‘remote’
storage, so I tried stopping mythBE, opening SQL as root, and executing the
following command:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>INSERT settings (value, data, hostname) VALUES ("SGweightLocalStarting
", 0, "");<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>This put the entry into settings, but it doesn’t seem
to produce the desired effect: that local and remote storage would be judged on
an equal footing. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I tested by manually scheduling 2 simultaneous recordings.
They should have gone into drives 5&6 based on free space, but they still
were placed in the local storage, drives 1&2 (which have the least free
space). <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Can anyone give me a hand with this?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
