denywinarto Posted December 28, 2024 Posted December 28, 2024 So As we all know drivepool created a separate large disk in disk manager, in my case it's N, which seems to maxed out at 2047,97 GB Now I got this diskless program called ccboot which can boot the drive in disk manager to clients as long as it's below 64 TB. https://www.ccboot.com/64t.htm And since my pool is over 300TB it's no longer possible to do that.. My question is simple, is it safe to shrink drivepool disk in disk manager, and then maybe creating a smaller partition so that my ccboot clients can diskless boot from that drivepool partition?

0 Shane Posted December 29, 2024 Posted December 29, 2024 Hi denywinarto, it's not possible to shrink the DrivePool disk/volume. You can only reduce the reported capacity (but not the reported 2TB "physical" size) only by removing disks from the pool. Quote
0 denywinarto Posted December 29, 2024 Author Posted December 29, 2024 Ok thanks, shame it would've been really cool if I could diskless boot it. Quote
