I've also looked in /var/run/sr-mount/<local sr guid> and there are no files in

I am asking for help, because it seems to me very very difficult to use
intellicache. 
After enabling an ssd to use as cache do I really:

- need to make a snapshot of each vm, then a template, then recreate vm from the
template?
- use xe to set cacheable=true on vdi?

I also am not able to add intellicache counters to performance tab.

Thanks,
Mario
