autoraid 12H: 'not enough drives'

Re: autoraid 12H: 'not enough drives'

Hello!

Problem solved (after one night of sleep ...)

After arrayfmt I checked the status again
today (arraydsp )
and saw the line
'Used by non-included disks <=100%>'.

All disks have been 'excluded' automatically
(by formatting?) and therefore it
reported 'not enough drives'.

Problem solved by simply including
all disks again.

Erik.

Re: autoraid 12H: 'not enough drives'

yea, as mentioned you need 4 drives minimum! I used to use this as a test question in autoraid certification courses I gave! Always a winner question!

Note about Auto Include, if you include a drive with luns configured and it gets auto included or if auto include is off and you manually include, then expect the autoraid to spend a lot of time balancing data across the extra drive. I'd recommend keeping Auto Include Off (like you have)!

Later,
Bill
It works for me (tm)
