Re: Pool Using More Space Than "Copies" Should Allow

I wish I would have waited to try your other suggestions :oops: As it is (and before you posted your last), I simply copied my data to my desktop, formatted the drives and began again. After copying the data back over, each drive is at ~60GB of data usage which falls in line with your's, mine and gr...

Re: Pool Using More Space Than "Copies" Should Allow

/etc/greyhole.conf does indeed show num_copies=2 for movies. I checked each drive and there doesn't seem to be any "extra"-extra copies. I'll add more and report back. Thanks for your suggestion. I don't quite follow your 5% math though. .05x916GB=45.8GB=~870GB (useable space) per drive. 1...

Re: Pool Using More Space Than "Copies" Should Allow

Nothing else (well, the last 5 drives anyway, disregard the 1st pictured as that's the OS which isn't included in the pool). Those drives are for the greyhole pool explicitly. I started copying my movies over and noticed it and stopped.

Re: Pool Using More Space Than "Copies" Should Allow

No extra copies means 1 instance of the file is stored (regardless of how many partitions used). 1 extra copy should mean (out of a pool of X partitions) that the file is stored on one partition and 1 extra copy is stored on a different partition.

Pool Using More Space Than "Copies" Should Allow

I have 5-1TB drives.

"Movies" is set to store 1 extra copy.

I have ~150GB worth of Movies

The Pool is showing each drive utilizing ~150GB space EACH.

What's going on here? I'm going to run out of space far too quickly.

Re: Can't add amahi package from repo?

Because the installer would crash upon adding the Amahi repo during setup (5 tries, same result each time). Indeed, I believed my best bet would to be get up and running which is why I installed sans adding the repo and tried to do it after the fact.
