Disk Space Equalizer

Version: 1.0.0.1

Download: DrivePool.DiskSpaceEqualizerPlugin.Setup_1.0.0.1.wssx

This plug-in is a simple disk space equalizer. It will equalize the used space across all your pooled disks.

It can work in 2 modes:

• Equalize by free space remaining - It will try to make the free space on all your pooled disks the same.
• Equalize by percent used space. - It will try to make the percent of disk space used the same across all the disks.

Notes

• This is an aggressive balancing plug-in, in the sense that it will always want your disk space to be equalized. It has no thresholds. You can tweak the automatic balancing triggers to set up appropriate triggering conditions in order to tell DrivePool how often you would like to balance.
• This plug-in will override any balancing requests from all the plug-ins below it.
• It does not take real-time file placement limits into account.
