Could not find specified mirror 'D' in diskpart output - Already changed DP_ vars in run.bat

[Anonymous]

Hi guys,

Thanks for this piece of software. I'm sure it works really well for what I've seen what other users have posted but unfortunatelly, it is not working on my system. I'm running a Win7 Pro x64 (language is European Portuguese: PT-pt) and it seems that no matter what I change the DP_HEALTHY and DP_MIRROR vars to, the output is always the same. Seems that somehow either it is not fetching what it should from diskpart.exe's output or diskpart.exe in this system, is not outputing what it was supposed to.

Could you guys help me out on this one?

I have a couple of questions that I think that are the main point of the problem, and having the answers to them, I might solve the problem.

1. When your program 'WinRaidMonitor.jar' calls diskpart.exe, what are the exact parameters diskpart.exe takes in? (i.e.: diskpart 'list volume')
2. When diskpart.exe outputs what WinRaidMonitor.jar asks, what is it expected for WinRaidMonitor.jar to 'see' or what is exactly WinRaidMonitor.jar looking for ?

Thanks in advance,
Regards
Pedro Sousa

Hello, WinRaidMonitor calls diskpart.exe with the "list volume" parameter, exactly. On an English system it would expect something like this as output:

  Volume ###  Ltr  Label        Fs     Type        Size     Status     Info    
  ----------  ---  -----------  -----  ----------  -------  ---------  --------
* Volume 0     M   RAID5        NTFS   RAID-5      5589 GB  Rebuild            
  Volume 1     E                       DVD-ROM         0 B  No Media           
  Volume 2         System Rese  NTFS   Partition    100 MB  Healthy    System  
  Volume 3     C                NTFS   Partition     74 GB  Healthy    Boot

The value in the column "Type" is expected in DP_MIRROR, and DP_HEALTHY defines what has to be in the "Status" column.

Hope that helps!

Hi Matthias,

Thank you so much for your quick reply.

This is what my diskpart.exe outputs:

  Volume 0     D   Backup       NTFS   Espelho      931 GB  Bom Estad          
  Volume 1     F   GRMCULFRER_  UDF    DVD-ROM     4420 MB  Bom Estad          
  Volume 2     H                       DVD-ROM         0 B  Sem supor          
  Volume 3         Sistema Res  NTFS   Parti‡Æo     100 MB  Bom Estad  Sistema 
  Volume 4     C                NTFS   Parti‡Æo     465 GB  Bom Estad  no arran
  Volume 5     I                       Amov¡vel        0 B  Sem supor

  Volume 8     L                       Amov¡vel        0 B  Sem supor          
  Volume 9     E   7SP1_AIO     NTFS   Amov¡vel      14 GB  Bom Estad

Volume 0 is the mirror array.
And these are my vars in run.bat file:

SET DP_HEALTHY=Bom Estad
SET DP_MIRROR=Espelho

By the way, the full healthy string is - "Bom Estado de Funcionamento", this is what is shown in diskmgmt.msc - (yes, portuguese can be a pain in the a$$ sometimes) although, diskpart only shows what you see and that's exactly what i've put in DP_HEALTHY var.

As DP_HEALTHY output contains a space I already took your advice to another user (the spanish one) and put double quotes around %DP_HEALTY% at the bottom of the file, like this "%DP_HEALTY%".
Although, everytime I run the batch file, it says that it cannot find the 'D' mirror. So, I'm a bit out of luck here.

Any ideas?

Thanks again for your time.
Kind regards,
Pedro Sousa

Hmm, hard to say, since I cannot reproduce that on my machine. I would need to investigate a bit. Unfortunately I am not at home this week, so I can not do that before the next weekend. I will keep you unformed when I have checked it out!

So, I think I have found the problem.
Could you please try the attached version?

Hello Matthias,

Thanks a lot for your reply. Your update was successfull. It is working now.

I know it has nothing to do with the change you made, but just to let you know, I also had to change the JVM path from "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7" to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_25" in run.bat.

Nonetheless, it is working great :)
Thank you once again for your time and effort.
Kind regards,
Pedro Sousa

Great, glad to hear it's working for you now.
Cheers!
