Great news

Hey there, you owe me one, I finally found where those "access is denied" errors come from.Ready, here is the whole story... I have setup my pool so that it can be shared over the network, with all of my media files well organized.Then I personalize…

Your problem seems very close to what I had in this:http://forum.covecube.com/discussion/1066/duplication-cannot-be-activated-on-some-folders

Thanks Drashna for the DISKPART thing.Regarding hiding the drive letters of drives member of the pool, I figured it out a little after (mount it in a folder instead of drive letter). Edit: Diskpart gives me two partitions for Drivepool, the currentl…

Hi Alex, thanks for the precisions.Regarding my problems, let me give you my setup:* Using Server 2012, all updates, all drivers fine* Logged in as Domain Administrator* I created a pool from scratch on two empty HDs, freshly formatted* I set the pe…

Apprently, the ADS DuplicationCount.Tag.CoveFs:$DATA was missing for parent folder. I copied the one of another nearby folder and it fixed the thing (see http://www.flexhex.com/docs/articles/alternate-streams.phtml for tools to manipulate ADS). Can …

Ok, seems that duplication is critically buggy... Tried to activate duplication on a subfolder of a non duplicated one through the Gui.Does not pop-up any error, but the folder stays with a x1 picture.Then I try to do it by hand, deleting the folder…
-
Yes Shane, I had the same idea.I even tried reforcing the access rights but nothing worked...For now it seems ok, I hope it will not happen again with the drive filled
-
Strange, retesting that now, once I have removed all the duplicates, fails.So apparently it is the same as you Henrik (but in the meantime I have reinstalled my whole server and do not have the same accounts as before so the file permissions may pla…
-
Finally I got rid of it...Renamed H:\Media to H:\Media_oldThen recreated H:\Media from scratch, with all the structure and setting appropriate duplications.Finally copied the files from the old location, and deleted it.That worked this time, but thi…

By the time, I do not know if this might be useful but here is a dir of my folders displaying alternate data streams.Here is as well the data streams contents for the folders that are of interest: H:\Media\Music>more < H:\Media:DuplicationCoun…

Hi Drashna, thanks for the feedback.I am using server 2012, and to be honest not very familiar with it.In the link you give, there is something to do in Windows Home Server 2011 Dashboard.I do not know how to translate that to Server 2012.When I go …

@Henrik I did the test by copying the de-duplicated files again, so I am assuming that the copy would fail with an error if the file was unreadable.To force deduplication I set the "older than" parameter to 0, and scheduled a dedup operation 1 minut…
-
@Henrik Just performed my own test. I have one pool with one feeder disk (without data dedup) and one archive disk (with dedup activated). I have copied one MP3 folder onto my pool, containing 16 files for 74.5MB. The copied 3 more times the same f…
-
Hi Drashna, yes I can use the share directly without mounting it on a drive (it is just more convenient to me).I cannot make the share available offline, we are talking about 4TB of data here.I have designed my infrastructure so that the server is a…

Hi Drashna, I have nothing in C:\ProgramData\StableBit DrivePool\Service\ErrorReports
-
@Henrik : So in your tests de-duplicating files onto the archive disks (not the pool directly) make them disappear from the pool drive? @Drashna : Snoop-de-dupe does not serve the same purpose. I do not want to remove duplicates on a single HDD, I w…
-
Very strange, setting duplication to 2 for folder F:\Media\Music fails as well.When doing so for folder F:\Media it works!
-
I have added F:\Media\Music to my indexed locations... Could it come from that? Edit: Just tried to remove the folder from the indexed locations, does not change anything.By the way, I have duplicated with success this folder: F:\Media\iconsThis one…
-
For those who are interested, I am currently testing that.Created a pool composed of two drives (D: E:). is used as landing zone with the archive optimizer plugin.E: used as Archive disk.Activated deduplication and bitlocker on E: only.Will keep you…
-
Thank you very much for the fast answer.This is great that it is supported, makes Drivepool a very good challenger to Greyhole under Windows.I will test that asap in my VM. That with the feeder plugin, that seem to act as the landing zone of Greyhol…

Thanks for the feedback.NTFS it will be then
-
Hello, Alex, you seem to indicate that the duplication count can be greater than 2.E.g. if my pool contain 4 disks, can I setup duplication to 4 so that a folder is fully available on my 4 disks? I do not find any option to do that in the drivepool …
-
Ok, just installed drivepool in a VM.Apparently ReFS disks are not listed in the tool, so not supported...?Can someone confirm that and indicate if some support is planned in the future?
