Unnexpect "Drive Full" problem

GiuseppeChillemi · January 28, 2015

Hi,

despite having set the balancers to 98% or 36GB free I have encountered a DiskFull problem.

I have set to start the balances "no more often than 12 hours"

The first balancer is "Ordered File Placement".

I have unchecked this option to immediately trigger balancing.

Drive Pool should not be allowed to reach a "Drive Full" status...

Regards,

Giuseppe Chillemi

Have you messed with the balancer settings (I mean like the settings for Ordered File Placement and the like) at all?

If so, how have you set that up?

Hi, here are my settings:

Prior: limit to 12 hour was selected

Prior: Volume O was duplicated by mistake

Error has occurred on Drive M:

Ah, okay.

If you don't have enough space on the pooled drives, it can cause the "not enough free space" error.

Additionally, moving the sliders around in the "Prevent Drive Overfill" acan cause the disks to get fuller, and more likely to cause this issue.
