"Error Removing Drive - There is not enough space on the disk"

[mct75]

Hello Friends,

I have a 24 TB pool with 14 TB free.  I tried to remove a drive and it hung at "checking for files in use" or something like that, so I let it run overnight.  This morning, I got the error below.  It doesn't make sense as I have plenty of free space.

Of note, I have the "IndexerVolumeGuid" duplication issue but I can't delete the folders because it says the files are in use.  Maybe that is part of the issue?

Thanks!

Could you install the RC and retry?

There are a bunch of changes, including to the drive removal code, that should make it more robust and less prone to issues.

 

If that version still has issues, then let me know.

This new version seems to be working a lot better!  The drive removal is at 15% already. 

Thanks so much!

Well, it failed again, but the greater verbosity of this version told me what was going on.  It was trying to move my ~1TB of files from that drive to my 500GB SSD (per the SSD optimizer plugin) and obviously 1TB won't fit on 500GB so that is where the "not enough space" was coming from.  I disabled the SSD optimizer and it seems to be removing normally now.

Well, glad to hear that it is doing better, and that the feedback was much more helpful! 

 

Hopefully, it will complete, now.

Hey Christopher,

Version 904 is not listed on http://stablebit.com/DrivePool/Download and also, the auto-update still only offers 903...

Regards,

903 should be fine then. 

904 is using a different cert for stuff, but isn't a significant change otherwise.

Ah, I didn't have the release notes, thanks for that :-)
