I have two clustered nodes accessing a shared Intel JBOD. In the JBOD I have 4 SSD's (200GB Each) and 8 HDD's (300GB Each). I created two virtual disks (CSV1, Mirror, Fixed provisioning, 1.25 TB). I also have a small Quorum Virtual disk
(CSV1, Mirror, Fixed, 6GB). Everything works perfect and the cluster passed the validation. All hardware is on the supported list including the drives. If I physically remove a drive the storage pool will show as degraded and both virtual
disks will show as incomplete (as expected). Everything continues to function normally. My problem is that an automatic parallel rebuild never takes place. I have 381GB of free space on the pool which is larger than any of the physical drives.
I set the RetireMissingPhysicalDisks flag to Always which I understand should set the missing drive to retired and cause a rebuild of the space. If I slide the drive back in everything goes back to healthy. If there anything else that needs to
be set to get the space to rebuild on its own?
