If your storage racks are subject to direct sunlight or strong wind movement you might get reduced defects from too rapid drying by draping some thick old sheets or covers over some of the logs, (not plastic it needs to breathe) basically cocooning them in a micro climate where the surrounding air is the same humidity. Indoors drying smaller pieces in thick multi layer paper potato sacks is often advantageous.
In large old-school sheltered stores it's not uncommon to place the better specimens of timber in the bottom and back of the stacks to slow the drying rate down in a more even atmosphere.
 
Can you adjust the height of those shelves ...as that tree looked thirsty
Are you planing on making a roof ?

How thick are the pieces you wish to obtain, and what for ?

Do you plan on radially cutting this ?
I'm surprised that split so well , It looks like you could cleave it from the shot of it split...
I wouldn't have thought that tree would as theirs tons of crotch


Yes there will be a roof and yes you can higher and lower the shelves also what ever logs i can get to mill down my self
