I am having a little issue with DrivePool. I have used it for a few years with no problems but have a funny one now. I have a hard drive that has the system partition and the rest of it is part of my drive pool. Originally my system partition was 60 GB and the rest of the drive was part of the pool. I decided to re-partition the system drive and increase it to 120 GB. I used gparted to take away 60 GB from the D drive (which is part of the pool). I than used gparted to move the D drive partition behind the un-allocated portion, than I used gparted to increase the C drive (which is the system drive).
Everything went fine and after finishing with gparted my server booted up as normal. The pool systems to be working fine. However, when I click on the pool tab under the Server Folder and Hard Drives, it says under the Not in pool section that the D drive can be added to the pool. However when I click to add it to the pool it says "Error adding drive to the pool. Cannot add the same disk to the pool twice"
When I look at the total capacity of the pool it shows correctly, as in it shows the correct amount with the D drive included.
Anyone know of a way to correct this is so it doesn't say the D drive can be added?
