Thanks for the quick work on this. I've updated greyhole using the RPM provided.

I then did several tests with different folders within shares. I tried using both single wildcard and multiple wildcards in the sticky_files directives.
For Example:

Code: Select all

Movies/Sticky Folders/* Movies/Sticky Folders/*/*
From my tests (around 20 movies), the changes you made worked perfectly. The contents of the folders were kept together but the folders themselves were equally balanced between the two drives. To confirm that greyhole was still balancing correctly I ran the stats option:

Code: Select all

GreyHole Statistics =================== /var/hda/files/drives/sdc1/gh: 1375G - 126G = 1180G + 14G = 1193G /var/hda/files/drives/sdb1/gh: 1375G - 126G = 1180G + 14G = 1194G
So far all the tests were successfully. I will report any issues I discover as and when I get them :)
Great Job! I hope its of use to people!
