    Adding Disks to an Existing Raidz2 pool via Napp-it?

    Very strange, it has worked and I can see the second Raidz2 under >>menu >>pools, but the message I had in Napp-it was that there were no unused disks available?

    Adding Disks to an Existing Raidz2 pool via Napp-it?

    Oh, I am getting no unused disks available, this is probably due to the drives already contain data and are formatted in ReFS, in this case do I need to reformat the disks first in Napp-it?

    Another Windows 11 Permission question?

    I have changed some of the settings under the adaptor on the windows side but not on the OmniOS side since I have updated OmniOS to r151054. My adaptor settings on the OmniOS I recall were good, but not sure whether I loose these settings when updating the OS. I remember changing the setting...

    OmniOS and storage spaces update

    Hummm... not happy with windows 11 for workstations storage spaces pool limitation of 63tb and the network write performance, only getting 100mb trasfering large files. OpenZFS for windows is still beta, so I'll hold off on that one. Will running windows server 2025 on hyper-v or vmware give...
