Add-In: StableBit DrivePool Build 5805

Build 5805 of StableBit DrivePool is out which fixes the locking files issue when balancing/duplication was taking place amongst other things.

Here’s the full details:

• When removing drives from the pool, cleanly abort all duplication / re-balancing runs while the removal is in progress.
• After hashing files to verify consistency during duplication, if the files are identical, synchronize the last modification times to prevent hashing them again in a future duplication run. Having different file modification times on file parts from duplicated files would have lead to extremely long duplication times because the duplication process would hash each file part to verify consistency.
• When background duplication / de-duplication needs to hash files because of a file modification time mismatch, the hashing process should be abortable and completely transparent to other I/O.
• Do not crash the Dashboard if indexing services are disabled.
• Fixed null error on drive removal.
• Missing disk alert is now cleared if a pooled disk is disconnected, then system is shut down and the disk is reconnected before the next boot up. Previously, the alert would get stuck in the on state.
• Balance ratio is immediately re-calculated after a re-balance.
• [D] After manually deleting a pool part folder, the entire pool stopped working until the server rebooted.
• When re-balancing files or duplicating files in the background, if another application requests write access to the file we cleanly abort what we were doing and move on the the next file. The application that requested access is then given access without an error.

[D] = Driver was modified (reboot required after update)
