Hi I'm test driving DP and I'm trying to use the OFP balancer along with file placement rules. Basically I want 2 specific folders to only be placed on specific drives that are faster then the drives in the rest of my pool and I want those drives to be balanced so that they obey the OFP rules. It seems like the drives with file placement rules are ignoring the OFP balancer. Is this expected behavior? Also the green bar at the bottom says file distribution not optimal but when I try to select re-balance it says balancing but comes back to the same message after some time.
