Ok so I've had folder duplication on for a while now with most being 2x some 3x and one share folder (Recorded TV) as 1x.
Everything was fine until this morning I happened to notice Drivepool (on WHS2011 but using version 2.1.1.561) was doing "Duplicating" way past it's normal time-frame.
Checked and all the "Server Shares" folders went from my individually set dupilcation amounts to being 3x at the root and rest being inherited.
So that means it was trying to do 3x on my 1x Recorded TV share!!! As you can imagine that is not good.
I don't have room for that.
What could have caused it to change on it's own? I don't have much installed at all on my WHS2011 (do not even have remote web access turned on ever). I have the "Order File placement Plugin" installed and the Drive Scanner installed. They all seem to be the current version.
This is my first reall bug/issue with your software (which I was signing praises of to my wife last night! Go figure.).
Anything I can do to make sure this doesn't happen again?
I had not gone into WHS2011 Dashboard or RDP into WHS2011 to load DrivePool software to where the settings could have been manually changed (via GUI) in the last few days!
Only thing that happened different last night than any other night is my wife and I were working (opening, editing, creating, saving) files on the same share and same folders at the same time last night working things. We normally are not having this occur. (see 2nd post for details on last night's usage)
