Thank you I will do that

I just deleted all the partitions on this drive and want to format it in ext4 but it is not showing as available to use. Is there a way to do this in unraid or is it just not available anymore.

I recently setup a ubuntu vm and added a share in the vm config in the unraid share line pic below, and am wondering what I have to do to add another share so I can mount a second shared drive in ubuntu. Also third , forth and fifth as needed. Also what how would I add it to the unraid tab line as well?

@JorgeB. Just wanted to let you know I tested to see if it would resume where it left off with a restart. It does not. Started back over at 100% left. No biggie I just had to restart to get into the bios to get a vm up. Now we both know.

@JorgeB my drive has gotten past 30% in the BTRFS is running operation in unraid. If I was to restart the Unraid server right now would it start that process from scratch with a new operation starting on the latest drive I added in? The reason I'm asking is under the processor info in the unraid dashboard I'm seeing a few of the processors at 100%. just 1 at a time the rest are all in the grey area and total load is not going crazy. Thought maybe this has to do with the data moving around from the BTRFS operation. I am syncing up the wallet in machinaris at the moment as well which I believe adds so stress to the system and I'm writing about 130 plots a day to my first array, not the pool that I added the drive to.

@JorgeB That makes sense. I wasn't sure how many pools I could use. Just to make sure I understand you correctly I would use pools of 3 or 4 drives and they would all be listed on the plots line as shown here. How would I separate them? /mnt/user/ATMTWO/, /mnt/user/ATMTHREE/, /mnt/user/ATMFOUR/, /mnt/user/ATMFIVE/, and so on separated with a comma? For the Share you said I could make one share and each pool can use the same share name so I would fill out the above share and select All the pool under select cache pool, Will it let me select all the pools under this one share when they are all set up? And can I add pools to the share as I get more and more HD's to add in? Thanks again for all of your time. I am taking notes and researching as you teach so your time is being spent well. Lastly I have an array of 28 drives and a pool of 25 drives with drive 25 at 81% complete of the BTRFS running operation. Its getting there. lol Can I split these drives up now or do I need to make new pools and move the data over before splitting them up or am I just stuck with them being bigger pools and leave them along until something happens (hopefully never) and then split them up?

Yep almost. lol So what I've learned is its better to add all the drives you want into a pool right away instead of adding one after I started filling the pool with data. Is there anyway to stop this process and take the drive out or would that mess everything up since its already started? I am collecting up drives to start another 20 drive pool anyway. I've been having trouble with my machinaris wallet not updating since I've added this drive to the pool.

Or did I just find it????????

where do I click. Atmtwo is the pool with the new drive. I can't find the balance section anywhere looked in settings and tools too. I'm missing something obvious here I believe or Im in the wrong screen

When you say a long time what do you mean? Days, Weeks, It is a pool of 25 drives 14TB each with about 223TB's of data on them.

Also where are you seeing that I have a share using that pool? Just like to know where this stuff can be found>

mouse over shows UDMA CRC error count: 1 It lets me acknowledge them and goes back to healthy. I didn't know this before. Thank you I will wait it out for awhile. In the future I have 3 more disks to add into this pool can you share the correct way to do it so I get it right the next time please.

I'm using this to put CHIA plots on. A friend of mine said I should just use all the drives to get as many plots as I can on there so that's why no parity. He said if anything messed up I could just replot. Hope that's not the case. Very new to this world but learning fast. I hope this doesn't result in my losing what plots I had on there. Everything seems to be working as far as everything that's connecting to the data on both of my shares. I have a 28 disk array and now this 25 disk share that has the errors after adding disk 25. Here is the diagnostic zip file. Thanks for any help or knowledge you can send my way. dccrypto-diagnostics-20210817-2001.zip

Hey everybody I just stopped my array and added a drive to a share that I had setup for 28 drives but only had 24 in it so far. When I started up the array under array operation it now has the stop button greyed out and next to it it says Disabled--BTRFS operation is running. The new drive shows up as drive 25 and healthy but wont show up in the total TB %. I did a reboot to see if this would help but it doesn't seem to have. Now I have a bunch of errors on other drives. I added my syslog if this helps at all. Don't know what to do or if this is normal. syslog.txt

Hello, I am having a hard time finding why my wallet is taking a long time to sync up. I am using the regular chia app at the moment to farm on another machined and it is working well. Node and wallet both synced up but in Machinaris the node is synced but the wallet seems to have stalled on me. I have port forwarding set up to port 8444 and the machinaris server. Can someone help me get this fixed up please. I was wondering if running the chia app on the network was stopping the wallet in Machinaris from syncing up?
