So I had a problem disk in my pool that was giving issues and slowing down the entire server. I didn't have time to remove the disk officially as I needed the server up at full speed for a deadline, so I just took it out of the server physically and replaced with another drive. The removed drive was duplicated files only.
Drivepool gave me the missing disk error, and saw my new drive. I removed the missing disk and added the new drive and drivepool seems very happy actually. It's very snappy now and not giving me any errors.
It was pretty flawless actually.i still have the removed drive untouched sitting on my desk.
My question is:
Should I reconnect the old drive now I have time?
Drivepool has already re duplicated all the missing files it says over night.
Is there a way to verify this is as smooth as it seems and that there are no missing files? I have re measured and re balanced.
Should I just not worry about it and keep it how it is?
To me the duplicated files is taking up more space then it should then before, but maybe this will correct itself?
