I'm having serious issues with my pool since trying to move to Server 2016. I should have not bothered as I had working server but I guess hate myself. The worse that could happen though has occurred. Drive Pool does not work properly anymore. I'm now back on 2012 after an image restore but nothing has been fixed. There are some serious issues going on at the moment...
1) It looks like paths are not correct anymore across the drives.
a ) If I check the folder size at a parent folder, it will be reported incorrectly. If I go into the folder its fine
b ) Network shares are not displaying correctly. For example, a videos share should show 5 folders but it's only showing 1 folder. This folder itself should have many folders within but that also has one folder
2) I cannot move files from the pool
3) It's not clear to me what Drive Pool needs to do after an install - does it need to go through a process of rebuilding? It seems to be calculating at the moment but taking a long time. I don't care if it takes a day and it works but it's not clear to me what I should expect. If the expectation is that I can't do anything with the folders (that seems to be the case), that probably should be a warning in the app. Even better would be some sort of indication that it's actually going through some process - % count down etc.
I don't know what to do
UPDATE - I think it might be ok. This was likely due to just not understanding what actually happens when switching / upgrading the OS. The drives might have been just busy but would be great if someone can comment
