Synology NFS mount folder

[Morphy]

Hi guys.

Happy New Year.

Have some minor questions that I hope that you can help me with .

I have Synology NAS mounted to a Debian Plex server via NFS to my home directory /home/user/mnt .

Can I make a cache for that NFS mount via VFS cache?

What Im trying to archive is less harddrive activity on the Synology NAS for 4K streaming locally.

Or should I add a buffer somehow? A bit lost

hi, not really understanding that you need help with, none of the questions got answered?
what is the rclone mount command, rclone version, remote config, etc...

@Morphy

that rclone vfs file cache will use harddrive, which is what you are trying to avoid.

@Morphy

then do not use a cache.

@Morphy

I add a buffer

the way rclone uses its buffer, odds are it would not make a difference.
but add the flag and see what happens.

Hi

Sorry for not adding all the details .

It was prolly for off topic and not directly for the help and support Forum

I have a Debian server which is mounted to my Synology server via NFS .

I was just curious if there was a way to use rclone to add a buffer / cache folder on the Debian server so the Synology server wouldnt have all the read load.

[asdffdsa (jojothehumanmonkey)]

if you want to use the rclone vfs file cache, then need to run rclone mount

[Morphy]

But can i mount on the same folder which is mounted via NFS?

[asdffdsa (jojothehumanmonkey)]

currently, rclone does not support NFS but that is being added.

rclone supports SMB
