Can you detail that a bit more please? Why do you think Squid cannot
write to aufs directories? Does Squid try and fail? Or those directories
are just not getting any traffic?

Do those aufs dirs show up on cache manager mgr:storedir page?

What makes you think that? Please make sure that you start Squid without -N.

Thank you,

Alex.
P.S. BTW, with a little bit of extra work (which I will not discuss here
to stay on topic), you could shorten the above config snippet to
something close to these three lines:

  workers 4
  cache_dir rock /var/cache2/squid/rock 50000 min-size=1 max-size=...
  cache_dir aufs /var/cache${process_number}/squid/aufs 850000 ...
