I recently tried to remove a drive from the pool. When prompted I did not select Force Drive Removal and did not select Duplicate Files later. The drive still shows in the pool but now when I move the mouse over drive in the pool almost all the space have been allocated as "Other".
The drive was a 700GB and most of it was duplicated prior to me trying to remove the drive. When I look at the Pooled pie chart very few of the files are marked duplicated, which worries me.
When I selected the option to remove the drive the process itself happened fairly quick and I am wondering if the removal process even worked as expected.
The Pool Organization I snow yellow and the bar is near 20% mark. With a note stating File Distribution Not Optimal. I tried to force rebalance and the yellow bar started to move Balancing... but when completed it did not change anything.
Should the disk automatically be moved to Non-Pooled when the DrivePool is finished the process?
Do I need to reboot?
Why do I get Unable to Enumerate Folder Access Denied when trying to look at the Folder Duplication?
