TITLE :SmartMon Incorrectly Reports Cache Status with DBLSPACE
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft MS-DOS operating system version 6.0
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary:
The SMARTDrive Monitor (SMARTMON.EXE) provides an interface to the
performance of SMARTDrive 4.0, the disk cache included with MS-DOS 6.
If you attempt to turn on caching for a DBLSPACE drive by typing the
SMARTDRV.EXE command at the command prompt, you receive an error
message indicating that you must specify the host drive rather than
the compressed drive.
However, if you are using the SMARTDrive Monitor and you select the
compressed drive and then select the Cache Reads And Writes button,
this action is ignored and you do not receive an error message. When
SmartMon is reloaded, it defaults back to no read or write cache on
the DBLSPACE drive.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SmartMon version 3.1.
We are researching this problem and will post new information here in
the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
