Trying to learn possibilities of Rockstor

[Hooverdan (Dan W.)]

Welcome to the Rockstor community. Let’s hope, this will work to your satisfaction, and that the next stable release in the near future will further the stability of Rockstor. 5.0.5 is just one stop towards that, with some loose ends still need to be tied up.

For the replication, while I don’t have very much experience, there has been (among others) a recent thread, where @phillxnet pointed out that replication takes some time to settle once started up.

Question about Replication

@m1dori Hello again. Re: Pretty much yes. But more specifically it’s down to our replication taking 5 replication events (from memory) to settle down into it’s stable state. We keep the last 3 I think it is and so once the 5th event has taken place you should no longer see these strange .snapshot shares appearing. It’s a bit messy on our part but the replication subsystem is non trivial so does take time and attention which we are often short in. But in time these rougue shares should no long…

In that same convo there is also some further discussion around “resume” of replications, or the lack thereof. I don’t think anything has changed in that respect, at least I couldn’t find any more recent updates when browsing the btrfs wiki information.
