There is not enough free space...

DanFerret

Hi

I keep getting "There is not enough free space on 'insert server folder here' " when trying to move files across the network.

I have well over 2TB free space in my Pool....

Have I set my pool up wrong?

How much data you trying to move? Is it one big file or multiple files?

DanFerret

I have had it happen in both scenarios.

Does it work with really small files?

DanFerret

Yes

Shane

Is the file you are trying to move larger than the largest free space remaining on any one of the drives in the pool?

E.g. say you had 2TB free in the pool, which was made up of four drives each with 500GB free, then the largest new file you could put in the pool could be no more than 500GB in size.

The smallest drive in the pool has 172GB capacity with 1.23GB free.

I upgraded to the newest Drivepool yesterday and haven't encountered the problem again.

Will keep testing though.
