Hi,
it seems deduplication those not working properly on bitclocker drive on server 2016
On server 2016 I have a 2 tier mirrored storage space formatted as REFS with integrity streams enabled. When the integrity scanner runs or I use Repair-FileIntegrity on a file the system logs an error stating that it cannot read a copy of the file. This looks like a serious issue with the file system. How do I fix it?
I also wonder if this is not an issue with the file system similar to how the storage tier optimization task throws an error on this volume even though it is using real-time tiering.

Hi All,
Once in a week my file server becomes very slow and users are impacted with the work.
Data drive is 5TB and free space is 500GB left.
when I check the logs I can see Error Event ID:2012.
"While transmitting or receiving data, the server encountered a network error. Occassional errors are expected, but large amounts of these indicate a possible error in your network configuration. The error status code is contained within the returned data (formatted as Words) and may point you towards the problem".
Kindly let me what all parameters need to be checked(Like Resource monitor I/O , perfmon counters).

Hy,
we have an ScaleOutFileServer (Server 2016) with 2 NODES and 3 JBODS
in one storagepool we want to change a failed disk.
- We removed the failed disk from the jbod.
- then we inserted the new disk.
- in Server Manager we added the new physical disk to the stragepool. (this works fine)
- the 2 virtual disks (in this pool) worked also fine, but they in the state <Degraded, Incomplete>
- in Cluster Manager i see, that the failed disk has 794GB used space ant the new disk has only 1GB used space
now i tryed to repair the 2 virtual disks, before i remove the failed disk from the pool.
in powershell i started it for the first disk:
Repair-VirtualDisk -FriendlyName vDisk1SSD
this was 2 days before, the Job has not finished (but i see also 3 Jobs):
PS C:\Users\ns-admin> Get-StorageJob
Name IsBackgroundTask ElapsedTime JobState PercentComplete BytesProcessed BytesTotal
---- ---------------- ----------- -------- --------------- -------------- ----------

2952790016
Repair True 1.11:53:48 Suspended 0 0
1342177280
What do i wrong?
how can i stop the Jobs and what i have to do then?
i tried it with:
PS C:\Users\ns-admin> Stop-StorageJob -UniqueId "{a4a41d82-8eb1-445d-87d9-6409414db9a2}"

Hi,
I have a Storage Pool with 2 HDDs and 1 SSD. Is there any way to create a mirror with only the HDDs (I don't need SSD tier) with Write Back Cache? Or I would need 2 SSDs?

Hi,
I am running server 2012 R2 and we have servers located at different sites with DFS replication enabled. However one our site with Server 2012 R2 has this strange issue (started a week back) - Hard disk space keeps changing randomly and running out of disk space.
Total Storage on Hard drive is 1.7TB. When I select all the folder and files including Hidden files/folders its appears to be 1TB but the hard disk keeps running out of disk space. I have tried deleting some files to make some free storage but as soon I delete anything it keeps filling up. Also, the hard drive space keeps changing (sometimes it shows 23MB, 160MB, 715MB, and then again back to 50MB, 5MB and so on, it keeps changing to different numbers) and also goes out of storage (0MB) and disk stopped working, then I need to delete something to get going. It is only happening on one server.
Folder stats
I have tried running different tools as listed below:
1. Ran disk clean up utility (no luck - can't find anything)
2. WindirStat (Total Storage 1.7TB)
3. Ran the SFC/ scannow.
4. Rebooted server (few times).
4. Have done disk fragmentation.
5. Shadow copy is disabled.
I will be performing MalwareByte Antimalware scan on server overnight for any malwares.
Could you please assist with any other suggestion(s)?

Dear Sir,
I have a shared folder in win2008r2 AD,
I want to access this folder and one subfolder of it...other subfolder and file are hidden.
I have set this shared folder Apply to "this folder only" :
Traverse folder/execute file allow
List folder/read data allow
Read attribute allow
I have set this shared folder Apply to "Sub folder and file" :
full control Deny...
I have access this shared folder...I find that I can view all sub folder and files(I can not execute but I can view it)
All of them are not hidden, Any one help?
OK,
I find it from other forum....
1. Click start -> run, type mmc and hit Enter to open the Management Console window.
2. Click File menu -> Add/Remove Snap-in
3. Find Share and Storage Management and click add, then OK to open the Share and Storage Management Console.
4. Under the Shares tab, it lists all the shares on the current server. Right Click the shared folder that you would like to enable Access-Based Enumeration and select Properties.
5. Under the Sharing tab, click Advanced button.
6. Check the checkbox of Enable access-based enumeration.
Hi,
I'm working on a 2012 r2 server that runs a nightly backup to an external drive. The maximum shadow copies size has been set to 320mb, which allows the backup to fit on the drive. Over time this seems to default back to 300GB but we are unaware until the backup fails.
This setting appears to default on all 5 drives at the same time as I will need to update the settings on all 5 now.
I had previously been advised to check the MinDiffAreaFileSize registry entry. This is also set to 320.
Any ideas on what would trigger these settings to change?

Currently I'm testing the Advantages and Disadvantages of Storage Pools in my Home-Environment. The test server looks like this:
Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter ("Student-Edition")
2*400 GB HDD
4*1000 GB HDD
2*3000 GB HDD
First, I wanted to test a "replacement" Case: I created a storage Pool of 2*1 + 2*3 added some data to a (mirrored) virtual hard disk, and disconnected one 1 TB drive. The Pool gets reported as unhealty, and with a second Disk i was able to do the regular replacement (Attach new Physical Disk, Remove old & Rebuild)
Now I wanted to test the case, how I can rebuild full functionality, when no proper replacement-disk is available:
Therefore I created another Pool of some Harddisks, added some data (arround 200 GB), disconnected one drive and tried various ways to get back to health - nothing worked:
Using the UI it's impossible to do anything at all. After selecting "remove" on the disconnected drive, it simple keeps telling me, that there is no proper replacement disk found.
Then I followed some instructions i found elsewhere on technet:
1. mark the missing disks as "retired": Set-PhysicalDisk -FriendlyName <PhysicalDiskxxx> -Usage Retired 2. rebuild each of your virtual disks: Repair-VirtualDisk -FriendlyName <Virtual Diskxxx> 3. Once everything is finished, try to remove the disk from the pool again: Remove-PhysicalDisk -FriendlyName <PhysicalDiskxxx>
1+2 worked fine, and I noted the disconnected disks usage dropping from ~ 30GB to 256MB
All virtual Disks reporting a "health" state now.
However, it was not possible to remove the disk: The ui told me, that it's gonna rebuild after clicking "remove" - but simply nothing happened - not after several hours (virtual Drives are "thin", so not much data to move).
Using the Powershell it keeps telling me, that theres an Issue with the "FriendlyName" Property:
I noted, that the Disk was prior shown as "PhysicalDisk-14" - but that did not change anyting.
So I followed another approach, using the following command:
It looked promising, but finally failed with "Not enough available capacity" - which is ofc. not true. (Only assigned around 1000 GB to the virtual disks, of which I used around 200)
So, the question is: How do i remove a (disconnected, retired) disk from a storage pool that has enough capacity left WITHOUT replacing the Disk immediately?
Hi, Can any of you figure out what might be causing new hard drive (that's recognized by the system) to not appear in the primordial storage pool. Here's what I have and what I've tried:
1. Hard Drive appears in the drive section of Server Manager\File and Storage Services\Volumes\Disks
2. Hard drive is not part of the primordial storage pool
3. Hard drive appears in the Computer Manager > Disk Management as "unallocated"
Here's what I've tried including all variations (sequence of actions, offline/online, formatted, raw, partitioned, etc)
1. Clean disk via the command prompt, powershell and Server Manager GUI.
Crap, I thought I tried more things than this, but I guess going through the different permutations of sequence of actions and formatting following the clean procedure seemed like more. Yes, all I've done is clean the disk every way possible that I could think of without it ever showing up in the primordial pool.
Details: Windows Server 2016, Up-To-Date, file services and hyperv roles enabled, no domain, single enclosure, not clustered, all drives connected via a single HBA card, tried plugging drive into different points on card, drive tested in another system, drive accessible on computer directly after formatting and creating a volume via disk manager.
I'm at a loss - any advice will be VERY much welcomed.

Hello,
during a Fileserver Migration a whole tree of UserHome Shares was copied. After the initial copy a Quota Template is applied to [Drive]:\userhome for the subfolders. As there are different Quotas, I wanted to use the mechanism to run a command (dirquota)
when a limit is reached to apply the next higher Quota Template. I talk about home folders for 1000+ users and no list of the actual quotas applied in the source fileserver is available or could be created (please don't ask why ;-) ).
I experienced that this works fine for new subfolders (i. e. [Drive]:\userhome\NewFolder): when the threshold is reached the dirquota command runs and sets the defined higher Quota Template. BUT is does not work for existing folders (i. e. [Drive]:\userhome\ExistingFolder).
The question: Does anybody know how to resolve or why this does not work for existing folders?
To illustrate:
2 Quota Templates:
then subfolders, each 200 MB in size
Does anyone have an idea?
Thank you, David
Hi,
I'm trying to create an iSCSI virtual disk. First I tried with New-IscsiVirtualDisk: "Unable to create the virtual disk. The drive, volume, or file system is not supported" ... COMException:8007000f
After that with Import-IscsiVirtualDisk: "An unexpected error occurred"
Now my setup:
I have a Minnowboard Turbot with Windows Server 2016. I attached a USB3.0 2-bay HDD docking station with UASP support (TeckNet UD037). I use it with a 4TB WD Red and an 1TB Hitachi 2.5". I created an 1TB 2-way 1 column fixed mirrored storage space
called S: . I would like to create an iSCSI virtual disk on it but I can't. I can make and use vhd-s but iSCSI doesn't work.
