by Guest /u/noobposter123- 0 replies
- 9 views
Hi, in the old days allegedly Windows allowed you to mirror disks containing the OS[1]. Is this supported for Windows Server 2022? When I right click on "Disk 0" the New MIrrored Volume is greyed out. And if I try Convert to Dynamic Disk, it fails with the following error: "There is not enough space available on the disk(s) to complete this operation". I get this error if I have a Disk 0 with all its space used, and also when there are is 11GB unallocated space. I have also tried creating a partition on the 11GB allocated space whether full or not and then converting to dynamic disk gives me a different error: The selected GPT formatted disk contains a partition which …

We have an RDS farm (4 hosts 1 broker) with about 40 users. Usually less concurrent. Authentication is via Windows Hello NDES certificate. they use roaming profiles (vhdx) Server 2022 Every day 1 or 2 users have a problem when they first login outlook just sticks on "Trying to connect".

If you re open outlook the problem is the same. If I end task the background process and re open outlook the problem is the sam…

SMB over QUIC performance issue
by Guest /u/smaxwell2- 0 replies
- 8 views
Hi All, Just as a test, today i spun up Windows Server 2025 and created a test file share. I created a certificate (Lets Encrypt) and setup SMB over QUIC. Mapped a network drive on a Windows 11 client. I have a 1GB connection, and the Server is located in a DC with 10GB. If i upload a file from the Windows 11 client to the SMB share. It maxes out the connection at around 950Mbps. But then if i try to download a file from the SMB share, it starts off very fast, but 15 seconds or later it goes to 0.1Mbps. I am sure i am missing something stupid here. I tried disabling SMB encryption (server side) and rebooted the Server. No difference. Any ideas or t…
