I've been copying lot of files with program called "Total Commander" under Vista to unRaid and keep getting Disk Full with 4.3. Might be problem with older version too but my disks have been filling up and i think i get "disk full" when High-water reaches limit where it should change disk to copy to. Even when i hit retry on copy dialog i still get same error and only way is to skip that one file and copy it later.

so you have configured user shares and defined which disks they use (either by setting them in "include disks" or making the folder name yourself) and they don't?

 

 

"included disks" is empty haven't made folders my self. I just let unraid to make those directories. And it works after i skip one file. Meaning i copy to user share i get "Disk Full" then skip current file and copy resumes. Then i have to copy that one file that wasn't copied because of disk full afterwards.

Oh..and i was copying directly to user share root directory with split level 1. Didn't copy any directories just files and like i said copying same file again later worked.

Is this gonna be fixed in next beta? It's getting to be petty annoying bug. If you copy lot of files some of them are bound to get "Disk Full" while copying.

I read from Total Commander softwares forums that this is actually issue with some servers and using non cached copying "Big file copy mode in total commander".

Tom describes how it is sometimes impossible to know how big a file will be when initially created in this thread: http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=1795.msg12582#msg12582

 

He described:

As for running out of space - it depends on how the file is created.  Some protocols will tell the target system that it is going to create a file of exactly N bytes, and then proceed to write the file.  Others will first create the target file with size 0, and then "append" to it as the copy proceeds, and hence the target system doesn't know the final size of the file until after it's been written.

But none one my harddrives are full. I mean all have least 100GB free. I have shares done this with split level 1 and 999. Althought i don't use any other split level settings.

Anyway something is wrong with beta6.

And it wasn't that copying without cache.

Odd thing that if i try to retry still get same disk full. Only way is to skip that file and try again later. It's probably bug in user shares. I didn't have this problem before in earlier betas.

What is really strange is that you are the only person with this problem.

Seems that if i put compatibility mode on in total commander then it uses CopyFileEx command to copy files and then it works with unRAID. Still testing but so far so good.

I think it might be unRAID + Vista + Total Commander combination.
