Hi again, I was helped to recreate the Docker image and added all the dockers with previous templates and everything looks fine. I would still like to remove the disk that caused errors before. Is it still best practise to: Stop array Remove Disk 2 Start array Stop array Tools->New Config Or should it figure that out by itself? Kind regards, Oaken

Hi Jorge, Thank you for trying to help me. I tried to move the data from Disk 2 to Disk 3, which was part of all the shares, using Unbalanced. Is there another method that is preferred? Because now after the move the Docker Service failed to start, and the log says the following: Mar 8 08:47:55 OakRaid emhttpd: shcmd (19865): /usr/local/sbin/mount_image '/mnt/user/system/docker/docker.img' /var/lib/docker 20 Mar 8 08:47:55 OakRaid kernel: BTRFS info (device loop2): using free space tree Mar 8 08:47:55 OakRaid kernel: BTRFS info (device loop2): has skinny extents Mar 8 08:47:55 OakRaid kernel: BTRFS error (device loop2): parent transid verify failed on 8946286592 wanted 8361418 found 8361441 Mar 8 08:47:55 OakRaid kernel: BTRFS error (device loop2): parent transid verify failed on 8946286592 wanted 8361418 found 8361453 Mar 8 08:47:55 OakRaid kernel: BTRFS warning (device loop2): couldn't read tree root Mar 8 08:47:55 OakRaid kernel: BTRFS error (device loop2): open_ctree failed Mar 8 08:47:55 OakRaid root: mount: /var/lib/docker: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/loop2, missing codepage or helper program, or other error.

I didn't get to the part where I created a new config, but I think it would be a bad idea since the disk isn't completely replaced. Right now the disk is mounted fully again and not emulated after trying to start the array without it and then with it. Any ideas of where to start looking? Or maybe you know how to make a proper file move? Just a mvdir *? Kind regards, Oaken

Hi Jorge, The end result sounds like the same that I want. Since I'm sort of a newbie here, is this what you're telling me is the best way to go?: Empty Disk 3 to Disk 6 Ensure Disk 3 is no longer related to a share and cleared Move data from the emulated Disk 2 to the emtpy Disk 3 Do a new config and resync without Disk 2 Remove Disk 2 If this is what sounds like the correct way I have a followup question: With "Do a new config" do you mean stop and start the array and start the parity check manually? Or is there something else that should be done? Thank you for your response. Kr, Oaken

Hi there unraiders, First time posting here and I usually find threads going through exactly what I need help with. However, this time I might have a somewhat new solution to an issue. These are my drives, and they are as follows: Storage = Disk 1, 3, 4, 6 Middleman storage + configs = Disk 2 ,5 However, now my Disk 2 pinged for some errors and didn't want to play ball anymore. I noticed some posts recommending to replace it ASAP, which I intend to. I recently installed 2 16TB disks to start replacing my 4TB disks. (Parity + Disk 6) With this I began moving data from Disk 3 to Disk 6, and now it's almost empty. What I want to do is this: Empty Disk 3 Remove it from the storage share Format if necessary Rebuild Disk 2 from parity onto Disk 3 My question is, how should one do this in the most proper way? Are there any best practices for this? What should I look out for? The reason for this solution is that the server is currently somewhat of a frankensteins monster and I prefer not to meddle with it too much until it's moved to a proper rack. Hoping for some good tips. Thank you in advance. Kind regards, Oaken
