HP MSS Mac Backup Add-In
HP MSS Mac Backup Add-In
Can not get format to work. Keep getting a message to make more space on Server. I have 2TB on my server with 93% free space. How do I make more space on server to allow formating to complete? Direct link to HP download for EX 470/475.

- How big of a backup is it? As I understand it, the Mac backup is just one disk image. So you'd need one disk with sufficient free space to hold that file, since WHS does not break up a single file onto different drives.

- Anyone else having this problem? Have reinstalled both Mac and MSS software, clean install, with all updates. No add-ons. Still get the error message to make more space on the server...err
- Have you contacted HP for support? It's their add-in, and unfortunately I don't have any Macs that I could test with...
I'm not on the WHS team, I just post a lot. :) - Ken in right - I think you should really contact HP on this one. I have a MacBook Pro and havent had any problems at all backing it up to either the HP EX487 or the EX475 with the update.

- I have the same problem - my system is spread across two disks as well but an LX-195. Not resolved as yet.
- We've got some discussion on this topic, with some suggested solutions here: http://www.mediasmartserver.net/forums/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=4600
http://www.mediasmartserver.net - If you need to create a single file of 500 GB on your server, your server will need to be able to allocate that single file on a single drive. It's not possible for NTFS by itself to store pieces of a file on multiple file systems, and (because it uses NTFS and has one file system per disk, though those disks are mounted in C:\FS for server access) Windows Home Server is also unable to split a file across multiple drives in the storage pool. Also note that if you wanted to turn duplication on for a share containing such a large file, you would need a second disk with enough space available to hold the entire file.
Alex's link gives some workarounds...
