Connection to Drobo 5N not working
« on: February 16, 2016, 02:07:50 AM »
Hi Support
I have a Drobo 5N connected 5 x 6TB = 30TB
2 volumes mounted
each volume shows 17TB  in finder
(see screenshot)

Finder can see all images on the volumes
see screenshot 2

PM can not see the folders in the volumes
see screenshot 3

I use an additional DroboPro with 8 x 2 TB and it works well
screenshot 4

is PM limited to 16TB and not beyond ?
please check this out

thank you in advance
kind regards
giancarlo cattaneo, switzerland

Giancarlo,

No.  PM does not care how large a volume is.

It would be worthwhile to see if there are any messages in your PM log file.  Go to the Help menu, choose 'Reveal Support Data...' and then post the resulting zipped PM log file here.  Use the 'Attachments and other options' link when you're composing your reply to this message and there you'll be able to upload your file.

Thanks,

-Kirk

to all users of Drobo 5N

we assigned a fixed IP address to the Drobo.
