grimpr Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 Currently i have Drivepool w/ Scanner on Windows 10, i was thinking moving to Server 2012 and run Hyper-V virtual machines for Drivepool and other stuff, like Linux with Plex etc. Does it work? Is there anything to consider? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Christopher (Drashna) Posted March 7, 2016 Share Posted March 7, 2016 Depends on the exact setup. If you're passing the disks for StableBit DrivePool to a VM, there should be absolutely no issues with doing so. However, StableBit Scanner won't be able to pick up the SMART data for the passed through disks (the HyperV drivers don't pass this info along). You can see more about that here: http://community.covecube.com/index.php?/topic/29-how-to-getting-smart-data-from-hyper-v/ Aside from that, you shouldn't have any issues. Though, deactivate the license prior to moving things around. Oh, and WIndows 10 Pro includes HyperV grimpr 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 grimpr Posted March 7, 2016 Author Share Posted March 7, 2016 Thanks, i'll think i just use Windows 10 and only run Drivepool /w Scanner on it, everything else will be run in virtual machines with the included Hyper-V, its the better way to do this for me, no need to mess up with complex solutions.
