There is no point in this since adding the old parity drive to the array will cause it to be 'Cleared' which wipes out any format you have just done.
agreed, it makes no sense as I understood it. Lesson learned. Ultimately it's not going back in the array anyway but you'e right, formatting it first would've saved me a lot of headaches.

Preserve all, the emulated disk will disappear, you can then reassign disk12 as disk11 if you want.
thanks a lot. it's re-synching the parity (without disk 12). I'll add the 16TB to disk 11 once it's finished. Appreciate your help very much.

If you want to remove disk12 you need to do a new config and re-sync parity without it.
this is the part that didn't understand, is the idea to remove disk 12, and then run the new config on the array without a disk in 12? Basically dont preserve any of the array or the pool? Thanks a lot

When you add a new drive to an existing Unraid array it is expected for it to show as unmountable with no file system. At that point Unraid will be offering to format unmountable drives to create an empty file system on it. Sounds like all you did wrong the first time was omit the format step?
I basically did several things that were precisely what I shouldn't of done . What was weird is I read is that I shouldn't first format a drive that was previously used for parity. I probably misunderstood.

thanks a lot for jumping in. I'll do this and report back. I looked at this option previously but was nervous about doing more damage. I'll get it done and report back, thanks a lot.

So I definitely screwed up on quite a few levels. I upgraded my parity drive from 8TB to 16TB which was fine. So I thought I could add the old parity to the array like you would for any other disk. I've since learned obviously it has no data system so it's not going to work and building into the array now means unraid expects the drive to nee there. My next mistaken was buying a new drive to replace the bay where I stupidly added the old parity drive. Obviously a mistake, unraid is looking for the old parity that was built without a data system.
To make matters worse, I added another virtual bay (there are 12 total in the machine, I added a 13th) and added the new 16TB drive there. It rebuilt the drive fine but it's clearly not being added to the array volume.
Here's a screenshot of the array in macitence mode ( I can't get into maintenance mode with the old parity drive in bay 11). I'm trying to figure out how to clear bay 11 from the parity disk it's expecting and adding the 16tb drive currently in bay 12 to bay 11 (again bay 11 is the last bay in the machine as there's 12 total bays).
I've researched "Unmountable drives" quite a bit but it always seems to be about replacing a dying disk that's unmountable.
I've attached the logs in case it gives any insight (unfortunately I've rebooted several times).
Any guidance or suggestions would be very appreciated. I'm at a total loss as to where to go from here. Thanks a lot.

Hi- I noticed you posted this fairly recently so figured I'd ask - did you ever figure out what was causing the lack of memory error? I'm getting the same thing and have been digging the diagnostic logs trying to figure out what's causing it.

Curious if you found a solution? I have a 4412 and the third cage has been experiencing the same issue. The first two cages work without issue but the last 4 bays, some work, some don’t and it’s totally inconsistent. I bought new cage, swapped cables etc to no avail. Thanks

You probably hit the maximum size that can be handled by the clipboard.
Many people are using with success MyJDownloader with the browser's plugin.
I've used JD2 for some time and actively run it on several different machines. This is the first I've run into this. To be clear I'm speaking of 6 maybe 7 links. I've seen link grabber grab as many as 20 on the desktop version of J2. Maybe the docker version is limited in the number of links you can submit simultaneously? Not a huge deal, just wanted to ask.

Any chance i could get the info as well? i tried radarr among others.
happy to help if I can. I'll send you a message

For some reason I can't submit more than a couple links for download. the clipboard will just sit there and the only option is to cancel it out. Has anyone run into this/found a resolution? Any suggestions are welcomed. Thanks a lot.

Just wanted to thank you this. This has been outstanding. Plex, Emby and on a couple IPTV clients. Great work!

I just replied with some info. Let me know how it goes

Really old post but figured I'd respond since no one did and in the off chance it might help.
There's a couple problems that will prevent any of the PVR's from grabbing certain sporting events on schedule. The first one you mentioned, most of them use the TVDB, who refuse to list some sporting events. But even the pvr's using an online database that does list those events (like sickrage using the now defunct TVrage who did list MMA events); is the naming convention. Sporting events like MMA can't really fit into a standard series format -season 2, episode 12 etc which is exactly how TV databases are built. So their solution instead is to break the seasons down by year. For example UFC 172 would be listed as Season: 2014, Episode 8 and UFC 172 would be used as the title of the episode. The problem with that of course is the material is never posted like that, it's posted as a stand alone event (as it should be)- UFC 172. So PVR's (at least the one's I've seen) don't recognize them from the indexer, hence they don't get filled.
As you mentioned, TMDB does list the events and MMA in particular would fit better in a movie database as a stand alone event. But unlike a movie, the name is never the same so it doesn't really work (plus the TMDB info is usually filled in after the fact).
Old post so you may of found a solution by now. If you haven't, free to DM me.

added old parity drive to array mistakenly thinking it was the same process as adding any new disk

Update- you were right of course. It would've been hard for me to screw that up any more than I did. Unbelievable. Anyway after 4 days, new config rebuilt the parity (without the the unmountable disk/extra drive slot) and then formatted the old parity and added plus the new disk it to the array as intended. Thanks for jumping into help.
