I'm running the Volume edition and I have three volumes I'm trying to setup with caching. The
first two seem to work fine both but the third one keeps deactivating each time I reboot the
system. The working volumes are both basic windows volumes and the one that resets is a
dynamic disk running in raid 0 (striped).
When i enable it, it seems to be working fine and i can see everything in the performance
monitor. Then when I reboot it doesn't come up as active. I get no error or anything. I originally
thought it was the fact i was mounting the drive to a directory but I've since removed the
mount point and given it a drive letter and I'm still getting the same thing.
Has anyone worked with raid 0 and fancy cache.
Cache Keeps Deactivating on Start-up
Re: Cache Keeps Deactivating on Start-up
What's your Windows OS? I think the problem is related to the dynamic disks. Can you find the event log "FancyCcV" in the Windows Event Viewer?
Thanks.
Thanks.
Re: Cache Keeps Deactivating on Start-up
I'm running windows 7 pro.
In the even log I found a Event ID 3 "Failed to start FancyCache filter for the device."
right after that there seems to be a volmgr error with the same timestamp

Thank you for your information.
Re: Cache Keeps Deactivating on Start-up
I have this problem as well. I have striped volume using windows dynamic disks and it does not activate on boot up. I see the same Event ID:3 in my event log but I do not have similar event ID:46. Is there a way I could turn on Read-Only Cache for the device by delayed command line script? It would be easy work-around until this is fixed.
