DrivePool Addin marked as Suspect

Freefaller

Hello,

I've recently migrated from WHSv1 to 2011, and installed DrivePool. The shares are all intact and the data is useable, but the add-in will not load in Dashboard, and indeed I'm forced to load Dashboard in safemode once this error has appeared, so obviously I am no longer able to 'adminster' DrivePool.

Is it simply a case of me being able to reinstall DrivePool? Or is there something else going on here that needs addressing?

In follow up to this, even when I force Dashboard to load Drivepool, I can't use it (clicking the Drivepool icon crashes DB), and it doesn't appear in the Installed Add-ins list.

Drivepool won't even reinstall, very odd. I get a "Service cannot be contacted" error when trying to run the add-in installer.

Ok rebooting the server and reinstalling DrivePool has fixed the issue.

However, this does not fill me full of confidence going forward, and whilst I always have WHSv1 to fall back on, I'd rather dig out what happened here and ensure it doesn't happen again.

Does DrivePool created (detailed) logging information?
