I have a strange problem and don't have any clue as to where to start.
I'm running the latest version of drivepool (2.1.1.561) on Windows Server 2012 Essentials R2 with 4 WD Red drives and a SSD drive for the cache.
When working with folders with a number of subfolders and files (via a network share or directly on the box) the folders seem to get locked and I am not able to delete them. It's almost like the pool is very slow to catch up. Sometimes I may reboot and they may unlock and let me delete them but sometimes I have to actually go to each drive and delete it directly from the pool parts.
It only happens when I try to delete the top level folder. If I manually go through every sub directory and delete the files before deleting the folder they are in it works. But this is not practical.
To help eliminate other programs that may be interfereing I started up the server with nothing running on it just to ensure it is still happening and it is.
Any ideas as to where I can start troubleshooting this? Logs? Monitoring? Anything?
