Turned off the array, turned it back on, and my new VM is showing, with the chase drive. Posting this for the benefit of future noobs.

I installed Dynamix File Manager plugin, I deleted the content of the cache drive. That old VM is still showing. Things are looking bleak.

The one on the cache drive is wrong - would it be best to format the cache disk or delete the file? (I don't even know how to go about deleting that image). I have an m.2 pool device that I had intended to be used for VMs - out of curiosity, in terms of performance, would this be a better place to store the image then the HDD array - or does it not matter too much? I don't really know what function that image serves.

Beer money has been sent in advance.

Thank you for your help so far Jorge, I have done as you asked, the list it produced on that commands looks to be a different (old) list of files... pixel-diagnostics-20240720-1306.zip

Hi JorgeB, attached. pixel-diagnostics-20240718-1948.zip

Hi, I am trying to add an unassigned device as a pool device (to function as cache for my existing array). I shut down my Windows VM, stop the array, and add the device as a pool device, then start the array, my Windows VM is no longer listed (and an old Linux VM appears). When I was initially trying to setup my VM I had issues with it crashing etc. so I made multiple attempts (potentially some past VMs used the same name)... I need the Windows VM running, so I shut the array down, unassigned the cache device, started the array back up and the old VM is no longer listed, and my Windows one shows up. I have tried searching for similar issues in past forums, but I still don't understand the issue (or the solution). Past threads talk about /mnt/disk1/system/libvirt/libvirt.img. Help will be appreciated!
