GPT/ GUID. MBR doesn't do more than 2.3TB or so of space. homework helps: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GUID_Partition_Table http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/fdisk-unable-to-create-partition-greater-2tb.html FDisk doesn't seem to work with GPT. GDisk should. Your BIOS also needs to be capable and compat...

Ok, so here's my new server machine. When I built it I hadn't made up my mind whether to run WHS or alternatively Amahi with lots of VMs. ATM it's neither nor, but Amahi with very few (one) VM, so even the very small Core i3-530 is kind of overdimensioned. The Gigabyte board has only 4x Sata which ...

Thanks for bearing with me here..

So once I see that everything is where is want it, to remove the old copies from the greyhole storage area, I can 'cd' into '/var/hda/files/drives/[greyhole partitions]/gh' and use 'rm' to delete the folders and reclaim space, yes?

Is there a command to list all the directories that are supposed to be in the greyhole pool AND list the directories that should not be in the pool?? If I could read my own list of "should and should not pool" directories I could execute that to fix my storage fill-up problem on my two 1tb...

Nice! I keep a paintbrush with long, soft bristles handy and whenever I open a box, I clean all the dust with the vacuum cleaner and the brush! It accumulates quickly for me! I notice you have some dust in the heatsink. Clean it for smoother operation. Funny you mention it, cuz after doing my 4 fan...

Recently added a drive so I took some shots of the machine. Details are in my sig, but the drives are: 1x 320GB = OS drive ... might replace with a WD raptor 74GB 10k RPM. 2x 1TB = greyhole pool 1x 1.5TB = /files shares There's 5 fans including the CPU cooling fan. Uses an old XFX 750a motherboard, ...

Thank you sir!

Now how long should it take for a folder to move off the storage pool drives to the other non-greyhole drive when i remove it from the pool via the hda shares page?

Ideally, only some of my folders should be inside the greyhole pool. I previously changed that some exist only in the /files folder and not within the pool. and.. is this what the folder structure should look like? [root@srvr1011 ~]# greyhole -s Greyhole Statistics =================== Storage Pool T...

I just swapped the drive where my /var/hda/files is located and was forced to unmount and remount the 2 other drives where my greyhole looks to store data. sda1 = current OS partition sda2 = swap sda3 = OLD /var/hda/files sdb1 = greyhole a sdc1 = greyhole b sdd1 = NEW /var/hda/files I'm concerned as...

So I changed over my greyhole storage to use MySQL as per the recently posted instructions. In recent weeks I also changed over to the xfce environment, and have avoided logging into any of the usernames on my fedora12/amahi server, partly because it's been causing some issues before I changed to xf...
