Uploading Attachment...

Not cerian this is the right file. super.dat

Hello, I replaced a failing disk 1 (14tb) with the parity disk (14tb) and replace dthe parity disk with a new disk (18tb) Now the start array button is greyed out. I have downloaded the diagnostic zip, but do not no which file to upload. Thanks in advanced. Jeff

Link?

I apologize for such a vague post and I usually do not do things ths way, I was pretty busy. In the Synology I hadt 3x14TB and 1 x12TB, the data from the synology was transfered to various pc's in my network. There was also an HDD that was formatted at NTFS that contained roughtly 8TB of music files, this also was in a different pc/ After installing the discs from the Synology they were formatted and mounted as XFS in Unraid. The music hdd that had 8TB of music was installed in Unraid and the music files were transferred to the array using rscync After succesfully transferring the music, I used multiple tools for different audio tasks. FFmpeg to extract audio and convert to Flac, sacd extract.exe for ISO files. These files were moved to an archival folder for organization before the final bulk conversion was executed. To clean up the metadata and file names, Beets and Czkawka was used. The musi files were moved out of the nested MEDIA folder into their own dedicated top level share, this was done with a share in the MEDIA folder labeled MOVIES which was around 9TB. I am currently running a script that is looking at a custom monitoring loop (using grep, awk, and blockdev to track progress), xfs_repair is the engine doing the actual work on your 14TB drive (/dev/sdb1). via AI Gemini. To be transparent here, I know nothing about Unraid scripts and commands relying on AI. I knew that going into this project I would have issues with AI and setting up this unraid server. The data that I have backed up does not include the music or movies folders amd I am ok with that, it is just not a care for me. This has all been experimental before I outright purchase Unraid and will continue the experiment. It definitaly is a learning process at my age and I have invested a signifigant amount of time reading these forums and reddit on Unraid. In the end I will see what this script comes up with if anything, if it does not show anything that I will move on, it really is not a loss. I have been in the habit of tinkinering with things in Windows for the last 20 years, not knowing what I was doing. For me, it teaches me how and what I can and cannot do. Anyhow, I just wanted to see if anyone can tell me from the zip file exactly went wrong in the process, so that I can correct myself later. To be scertain, AI is naot fail safe in anyway, and thisnk the technology is really neat, and I do not solely rely on it. However it does make things a bit easier. Thank you in advance if any suggestions come from this. Jeff

Yes but the were formatted before adding to the array. Had about 9.5TB of Movies and 8Tb of music just vanish while setting up navidrome, feishin and syfonium.
