As title suggests ... I was just cruising through the logs on my OMV 8 instance and I see that WriteCache stopped logging on January 6. It had been a prolific logger up to that point. I presume an update changed the way this works. Is this a symptom of a problem that should be addressed, or does WC no longer log anything by design?
WriteCache stopped logging in January - is this a problem?

writecache itself stopped logging or all logs on the system stopped? What are your settings? I assume you still have system memory enabled?
-
Everything else is logging fine. My WriteCache settings are as follows:
- Enabled is checked
- "Use system memory" is unchecked
- Workspace folder is pointed to a shared folder on an NVME drive
- Journal storage is auto
- Only these are checked:
- Flush on shutdown
- Rotate on shutdown
- Flush daily (set to 03:45)
- Rotate on daily flush

Turns out I was wrong. WriteCache is logging, however, the default presentation in the Diagnostics > System Logs view in the Dashboard is to be sorted by date ascending. If I toggle the sort, the newest records are presented first.
What I don't understand is why every other log I could view in this page sorts descending except this one. Any idea where that can be changed?

it should just remember the last sorting method you select until you reset the web interface. But since I have changes in flight, I will set the date to default to descending. https://github.com/OpenMediaVa…c49271c966a34d65a2a2d275d

Thanks. I can confirm that it does not remember the sort. It just defaults to showing earliest first.

I wasn't speculating. I actually tested that. I can close my browser and it still is sorting time desc. I will push the update to avoid this crisis later. I just wanted to dogfood the other changes a little longer.
