Storage Pools - Removing Disk - Task completed but Task progress window wont go away

Question

I am playing around with Storage Pools and have added 5 disks to a pool. Next I removed a disk from the pool. The task completed but the Task Progress window will not go away and I cannot do anything further with the Volumes - Storage Pools.

Has anyone run into this? I am running Windows Server Essentials Technical Preview

Thanks

I ended up killing off server manager and that closed the task progress window. I have not tried to add and remove a disk from the pool again. The pool is healthy.

Hi gautam999,

Thanks for your post.

In my test, the task progress window shows few seconds, then the disk is removed. Could you please check the task manager to check if there's some tasks related to the process so that it hangs.

And if there's no task and even no error, I'm afraid you may need to the restart your server to have a check.

Best Regards,

Mary Dong
