I just completed building my server and transferring all of my data to the new server.
Some background on the server:
Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials
OS is on a RAID 1
I then have 4 3tb drives in a JBOD showing as both an F drive and G drive. F drive shows as Local Disk and G shows as DrivePool, they are exactly the same size, etc.
I installed DrivePool and had not turned on duplication until I had completed transferring over about 2.5TB of data. Now I am looking to begin Folder Duplication of Photos as a start. When I do this it fails with the below error:
Task Failed. Not enough physical drives in the pool to enable duplication status. Add another drive to the pool before trying to enable duplication.
I have tried this on several folders and they all fail. I clearly have 4 drives, they are set as a JBOD running off a RocketRAID card.
I am new to DrivePool after having a WHS v1 for 4 yrs or so. I would really like to get this setup and am not seeing what step I am missing.
I want to make certain this is working on a single folder before jumping into more data.
What am I missing? Could I have installed this incorrectly? Really appreciate any help.
