I have some Questions about using Drivepool with server 2012.
i'd like to duplicate a lot of files and some Hyper-V VHDs. The files are no Problem, but what can i suppose on VHDs?
Can i store vhds on my pool without worrying about the data, which is written in a vm? One vhd can get a size of 500Gb or more.
What happens when i enable the automatic balancing with the vhds? Do they get balanced without shutting down the vms? Can i exclude the vms/vhds from the balancing process?
What happens when i remove one disk from the pool?
What happens, when i create a vhd which is greater then the free space of the volume on which it is stored?
Can i use the integrated per-volume-deduplication feature of Server 2012 to reduce the data, which is stored on one Volume? Can Drivepool still read the deduplicated files?
