# FlashCache
#
# disable writing dirty cache data at shutdown (do this only if you really trust FC)
# dev.flashcache.fast_remove = 1
#
# change the reclaim policy from FIFO to LRU" >>/etc/sysctl.conf
dev.flashcache.reclaim_policy = 1
#
# Writeback
# do not write "stale" data to disk until evicted due to lack of space
#dev.flashcache.fallow_delay = 0
#
EOF

</code>

 

Start module and install it asdefautl module

<code>

sudo modprobe flashcache

sudo echo "flashcache" >> /etc/modules

</code>

 

check:

<code>

~# dmesg | grep flashcache

#

lsmod |grep flashcach
flashcache             82952  0

</code>

 

# Step 4 - montage volume simple DATA/Home

# Find the UUID of the volume you want to cache:

<code>
ls -la /dev/disk/by-uuid/
</code>
#### mount DATA Drive


<code>

sudo umount /home/yoyo/eMule
sudo flashcache_create -v -p back filecache_data /dev/sda3 /dev/disk/by-uuid/45e71c47-a88f-4493-8b1a-e5bfcf7562b0

vi /etc/fstab
# Comment out the line with the device you want to cache
# Add a new line for the flashcache similar this:

# /home/yoyo/eMule was on /dev/sda5 during installation
#UUID=45e71c47-a88f-4493-8b1a-e5bfcf7562b0 /home/yoyo/eMule     reiserfs defaults        0       2
/dev/mapper/filecache_data /home/yoyo/eMule     reiserfs defaults,noatime,notail        0       2

</code>
