dashboard on latest drivepool v2

[AMCross]

hi there

 

 

I know it was discussed months ago but will there be a return of dashboard intergration on v2 of the software for whs 2011

[Christopher (Drashna)]

... With my dying breath, it will be in there one way or another.

Alex has said that he is considering it. But to be blunt, he's been very busy with fixing bugs, and trying to get v2 to a "stable" build, so this isn't a priority right now.  In the future possibly, but not at the moment.

 

 

But yes, I would absolutely love to see the dashboard integration back as well. And Alex knows how I feel about this.

+1 For this

+1 for dashboard support!

 

I've just migrated from WHSv1 to WHS2011 and DrivePool+Scanner has been a life saver. Not only did DrivePool let me continue to use my storage as I see fit, but Scanner ID'd 3 near death HDDs (Darn WD Greens). I would love to see continued support for my "new" 3 year old OS choice.

Hey guys, in case you haven't see it yet:

Guess what Alex added for us!

and Christopher for twisting his arm :-)

Just migrated both my WHS2011s to 2.0.0.387 beta and all is working well

 

Thanks for doing this, I feel much happier having my 4 drivepool installs all working on the same version of the software.

Well, I didn't so much as twist his arm, as continued to be insistent about the dashboard. Though, I think the inclusion of the "Essentials" code as a core Role in Server 2012 R2 had a part to play as well (yes, Essentials features are available to install on Standard and Datacenter version of 2012R2, IIRC).

 

Also, another thing to keep in mind, you get basically the same interface as the remote UI... which also works with DrivePool 2.x on WHS2011 and up. So we know have two methods of interacting with the Pool.
