Thanks! I appreciate your help.

@Frank1940 Thanks for your reply. That part is confusing but those arrows helped! Any thoughts on my other question - Am I able to pull the old drive out of the array without losing the data on it since I do not need it anymore? If so, are there specific steps to do so?

I am converting 2 drives from Reiserfs to XFS following these instructions; the drives being converted are one 4 TB and one 8 TB drive. If I have two 10 TB drives available, is it possible to just remove the old drives from the array after Step 14 without formatting them? I'm a bit paranoid and would like to keep the data on the drives just in case I find an issue later on. With two empty 10 TB drives available, I don't need to reuse the old drives at this point. Also, Step 15 is a little confusing to me. Wouldn't the new drive have the correct XFS filesystem at that point? Thanks.

Things seem to be working as expected!

@JorgeB Great! Thanks for your help again. @MAM59 Thanks for your help as well and for jumping into the conversation so quickly after I posted!

@JorgeB Thanks for your help. Of the two options you presented, which is the most fool-proof? Obviously, that is the one that I will need to use😁

Tasked completed and confirmed old cache is back.

cylon-diagnostics-20230327-0639.zip Let me know if this is not what you requested.

That is correct.

You are correct, I completely missed the part about not working on a single device pool. The system is back up but without the old appdata.

I completely missed that strikethrough part. Here are the diagnostics because I do still need help. Any help you can provide is appreciated. cylon-diagnostics-20230327-0639.zip

I guess my question is how to start again? Do I stop the array, unassign the NVMe and reassign the old cache? Would doing that erase the old cache? I ask about the deleting of data because of what the second step in this process says.

"Next time"? So I go through the process again? Will the data on the original cache get erased if I set it back to being the cache and start over?
