Hi!

 

I'm attempting to activate FS-Cache on a HC2 with a 512GB SSD. I want to cache reads from other servers with NFS shares using mechanical HDDs over GbE. I run PLEX on the HC2 with SSD and the media is stored on other HC2s running OMV, with big mechanical HDDs. I figure that I can use a good chunk of the SSD to reduce the network traffic and the HDD use. I successfully use FS-Cache on a Ubuntu 18.04 laptop, together with autofs.

 

But when I attempt to start FS-Cache on my HC2 with Bionic Armbian I get:

 

Oct 17 23:25:34 ctrl systemd[1]: Starting LSB: CacheFiles daemon...
Oct 17 23:25:34 ctrl cachefilesd[11217]:  * Starting FilesCache daemon  cachefilesd
Oct 17 23:25:34 ctrl cachefilesd[11217]: modprobe: FATAL: Module cachefiles not found in directory /lib/modules/4.14.69-odroidxu4
Oct 17 23:25:34 ctrl cachefilesd[11217]: Failed to load fscache module,
Oct 17 23:25:34 ctrl cachefilesd[11217]:    ...fail!

 

I've seen elsewhere that cachefiles was enabled in another kernel for ODROID C2. Is it possible to do the same here in the future?
