Yes that's true. My specific case was: set Include Disk 2 only on all shares & global share settings during Shrink process I unassigned Disk 1 & Disk 3 also set Disk 2 as Disk 1 have I kept the retained Disk as Disk 2, the problem wouldn't have appeared

ohhhh you're my hero!! Thank you!! I totally forgot I had this enabled from the "Shrink Array" guide. It was actually showing as "All" in the UI, but I selected the new Disk1, applied it, then deselected it again to include All, applied it. Started Array and now the shares are showing up! Seems like the UI has a bug here, or at least shows "All" even though an old & now unassigned Disk is still selected.

total 16 drwxrwxrwx 1 nobody users 0 Oct 28 09:30 ./ drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 140 Oct 28 20:23 ../ It's still a relatively new server. I can backup all files temporarily, reset the Unraid server and copy all files back if that's the safest approach to fix this?

tower1070-diagnostics-20221028-2026.zip Sadly the shares are still gone after reboot & array start. Attached are the diagnostics after array start. Thanks again for checking.

@JorgeB thank you for the tip! Attached is the ZIP tower1070-diagnostics-20221028-1119.zip I only edited /logs/syslog.1.txt, as it was showing sensitive directory paths and was essentially just 10k lines of the same error, just for different files.

Just tried via the UI and after ~15 minutes the browser crashed "out of memory". Will retry now using the terminal and `diagnostics` command. BTW, I see that "Log" on the Main page is showing 100%, so I assume my storage for logs is full.

Hi, I've been following the "Remove Drives Then Rebuild Parity" method from this guide: https://wiki.unraid.net/Shrink_array to remove 2 SSDs from the array and only keep the same HDD parity and one HDD disk. Before I started I set all shares to cache:yes and ran the mover (as suggested here), then I moved all files from the SSDs to the HDD that I wanted to keep in the array. All worked fine, I re-started the array and it started the Parity-Sync. I can confirm that all files are also perfectly fine on the remaining disk. The issue: no user shares are showing anymore (appdata, system etc and my custom shares) and only one disk share is showing where all the files are located now. I have not re-started the docker service yet. Should I just re-create the user shares manually? Will they pick-up the existing folders on my drive? I want the system shares to be cache:prefer again, but ofc they should pick-up the existing data. I'm unsure how to best proceed to get to that result. Thank you for any tips!
