So, on my test box AKA production personal server I've been using 2016 TP5
Hyper V has been managing a handful of VMs and I have been pretty happy with it.
A week ago it started rebooting and throwing an error saying to install a new build.
Not a problem, but I think I'll use a free hypervisor.
Its a pretty generic Supermicro system:
dual E5630 48GB RAM
Prior to installing TP5 it was an ESXI box using an LSI RAID card.
Right now It's using the onboard ICHxR
Simple Mirror for OS (2x2TB)
Using Storage Spaces I was testing 6x2TB Drives in Parity with one large virtual disk.
That is where the problem starts.
I don't recall if I had to mount the virtual disk with every reboot (it never gets shutdown) but I do recall going into server manager and doing it.
(Server Dashboard> File and storage services > volumes > Disks > Right click > Mount)
Now, When I goto the dashboard ans click on disks It says loading... loading..... loading........ and nothing ever happens
Under disks management AND device manager I only see the intel Boot Mirror (As far as I know it's normal with the storage spaces setup)
When I open Intel Rapid Storage it shows the 2 drives in a mirror, and the remaining 6 drives as good.
Thoughts?
