    Pooled Cloudrives

    in General

    Posted

    I have three OneDrive cloudrives...these are pooled in drivepool.

    If I want to remove a clouddrive from the pool, do I just use the remove drive option in drive pool?

    Basically treat the  cloud drive as I would a physical disk?

    Ideally what I want to do is delete the cloudrive pool and destroy the cloudrives...

    what is the process of doing this?

    Thanks

     

    EDIT: I deleted the data off the drives, removed them from the pool in drivepool,  then destroyed the drives in cloud drive.

    There are some inherent flaws with USB storage protocols that would preclude it from being used as a cache for CloudDrive. You can see some discussion on the issue here: 

    I don't believe they ever added the ability to use one. At least not yet. 

     

    Get you, I'll order another disk...I dont want my cache on my pool :)

    You can change the cache location by detaching and reattaching the drive to the system from the UI. It will prompt you for the cache location and type whenever it is attached. 

    Thanks, I did this but I couldn't choose my USB 3 Drive

    Is there no way I can use a USB 3 Drive for Cache?

     

    Thanks

    I have set up three Onedrive clouddrives in windows 10. I have pooled them into one.

    My question is how do I set the location of the cache?

    I have it set to expandable on all clouddrives and I have noticed that one of my Physical drives in the other pool is being used for the expandable cache..

    This is not really a problem. But I might get an SSD for this purpose instead. Not have the SSD part of the  pool and just use the SSD for the cloud drive cache.

    My question is...Can I do this, and if so how?

    I'm uploading 600GB to the cloud but the space on the cache drive cloud drive has decided to use is 437GB will this cause issues?

    Thanks!

    You'd just remount the drives. 

    The "mount folders" are a "reparse point" that just tell the system to "look at this volume".  So the data isn't actually on the C: drive. 

    Since formatting or repartitioning just wipes the C: volume, those pointers are removed.  The pooled drives are not touched, at all. Other than having the mount points removed. 

     

    Brilliant thanks...

    You can remove the drive letters and map to folder paths.  We actually have a guide on how to do this:
    https://wiki.covecube.com/StableBit_DrivePool_Q4822624

    It would be, but the only problem is that it would be too easy to break existing configurations.  Which is why we don't have the option to do so.   

     

    If I mount the drives in the pool to say C:\DrivePool\"  and in the future format my windows drive...How to I access the data on the drives?

     

    Apologies if this is  a noob question....I just dont want to break anything.  :)

    Couldn't you just remove the drive letters? DP does not need them.

    I would still like to access the data on the single drives...

    Is there an option in drive pool to hide drives from view if they are part of the pool?

    I would like to see just one Drive pool drive not loads of individual drives in windows explorer...

    Is this an option?

    Thanks

    Cloudrive Pool on USB Drive on server

    in General

    Posted

    Hi,

    I have just added an  8 TB USB 3 drive to my server for an extra backup. Not part of the main server pool.I'm thinking I might have a play with clouddrive.

    Is it possible to create a Cloudrive pool on this extrenal drive using Drive pool thats already installed on the server?

    Ideally I would like then to share this Clouddrive pool over the network

    Is this possible?

    also if I write a file to the cloudrive pool  where does the file get stored? Say I have 3 Onedrive accounts which one gets the file?

    Thanks

    Adding an External drive then shucking it?

    in General

    Posted

    I ran out of space on my backup server. So I added an external WD elements drive to the pool over USB.

    When the re-balancing is complete, and I remove one of the internal drives from the server slots to free it up, can I remove the WD drive from the enclosure and just fill the empty slot ?

    Will drive pool still see the drive without the USB mini board attached once shucked?

    At the moment my pool states the WD is external, once I remove it from the enclosure will it still be seen by the pool?

     

    I hope this makes sense :)

     

    Thanks

    My Backup server is running windows 8.1 and drive pool (yes I know I'm lazy)

    Can you advise me what I need to do before I install an SSD as boot and install windows 10...

     

    I forgot what I need to do with the license etc....

     

    Cheers

    I upgraded my HP Microserver running Drive pool and windows 8.1 to a Dell T20 running windows 10

     

    I enabled the administrator account

     

    I added my own account as a local admin and made sure I was in the admin group ( same username as before)

     

    I have the same account on all my PC's and the same password. 

     

    After installing windows 10 on the new machine I installed drive pool and scanner

     

    I then transferred the pool and Drive pool found and balanced all the drives.

     

    I can TS onto the server using said account on all my machines around the house.

     

    From My Gaming PC I browsed to \\server\X$ and get a "Enter Network Credentials pop up.

     

    I add my username and password but this just appears I try again and it just appears again

     

    m39dHLH.jpg

     

    When I log in as administrator as above.. I can connect to the share \\server\X$

     

    Why can't I connect when I user is in the administrators group? But the administrator account can?

     

    Anyway I took a look at the permissions of X and Both my user and administrator had full control and the owner was administrator

     

    I clicked "Replace all child object permissions with inheritable permissions from this object" and get this error for some of the folders in the share

    I want to be able to access the share from my user account from any PC in the house

    The Release version supports Windows 10 just fine. It has no issues running on either Windows 10 or Server 2016. 

     

    Great what I now want to do is get a Dell T20 mini server, install windows 10 on it on a 500GB SSD. Use this as music studio PC.... Then I want to create my \\media server virtual machine with windows 10... install drive pool on this VM and then add my pool disks currently that are in my old 8.1 windows micoserver.

     

    Is it a case of once I install Drivepool on the VM... the old  disks will just appear as the pool once attached as passthrough disks on the vm?

     

    This is major upgrade for me so want to be clear before I do the upgrade and dismantle the old server...

     

    The idea is to consilidate 2 micro servers and one Desktop PC into one box...

     

    Cheers

    How did it fail? Did it give an error code?

     

    And what version are you using?

     

     

    Worst case, the Microsoft installer fix-it program may fix the issue for you:

    It was still in my system tray so updated to latest version then tried another unistall...

     

    Tried stopping the service manually but its greyed out even though I'm a local admin user.
