Sequential balancing

[Baguette]

I work in a small team of developers and we wish to use DrivePool at some stage to distribute files across an array of drives.

 

We wish to distribute all files sequentially across the array of disks:

1. Copy folder into pool drive which contains:
   • file-001.bin
   • file-002.bin
   • file-003.bin
   • ...
   • etc
2. If we have an array of 5 drives labelled D:\, E:\, F:\, G:\, H:\, we want the files to be distributed like:
   • file-001.bin -> D:\
   • file-002.bin -> E:\
   • file-003.bin -> F:\
   • file-004.bin -> G:\
   • file-005.bin -> H:\
   • file-006.bin -> D:\
   • file-007.bin -> E:\
   • ...
   • etc

Is this possible? If not, could some sample code for a plugin be provided? The plugin documentation is incredibly minimal and we found that we were doing all the heavy lifting ourselves when it came to balancing and simply relying on DrivePool for drive virtualisation and nothing more, copying and balancing manually in the code.

Well, if the files are all about the same size, then it should do something about like that automatically. 

 

However, for inquiries like this, the best option would be to use the contact form, as the plugin related stuff goes to Alex (the Developer) directly.
