I have a working Drivepool (I can save/open some files on Drivepool), but I have a question: How can I add 'other files' to the pool and enable duplication (more/better)?
My - possible related - problems are:
1) When I click Manage Pool -> File Protection -> Pool File Duplication I get the message "Task failed: invalid/incorrect folder/directory name" (in Dutch).
2) "Invalid folder" is also mentioned when I click on the ◷-sign on the left. However, I have no idea what could be the wrong folder.
3) There are a lot of 'Other' Files (from 1TBe, 8TB, 2TB in the screenshot), but all files are in the Poolpart folder (so I'd expect only a few gigs maybe outside the pool, not 1,7 TB). How can I readd the files on that disk to the pool?
4) When I hover my mouse over Pool Organization, I see: Duplication Inconsistent. Clicking on the ▲ arrow next to the Pool Organisation and clicking Rebalance / re-check does nothing.
5) All calculating is done and the pacman-like ᗧ symbol on the left is still indicating 'Statistics are incomplete'. x2 is shown, but 'only' 964GB is duplicated and I'd like that other files/folders are duplicated too. I understand that this may not be possible always because of the different sizes of disks, but I'd say that it there would be a lot more duplicates possible than now.
These numbers above correspond with the numbers on the screenshot I added.
I tried:
- Troubleshoot -> reset all settings
- ▲ next to Pool organisation -> Rebalance / Re-check duplication
- Remove files/folders from the hidden Poolpart folder and adding them again
- Removing drives with 'other files' (when computer switched off), then removing them from pool and then add them to the pool again after I connected the drives again.
I hope someone knows what to do next and could give me some hints what to do next?
