Hello,
Thank you all for supporting these fantastic forums. I am a long time lurker, first time poster. I am in a bit of a bind and would appreciate any suggestions!
When I updated to version 6.4 of UNRAID, my server no longer would boot and would be stuck with a prompt that stated "no configuration file found." Upon further inspection, it appears my USB drive was corrupted. I attempted to back up the USB drive contents, but due to the corruption, it would not let me copy over several config files. I ran a chkdsk fix, which then let me apparently copy the files off the USB drive to my local hard drive.
I attempted to reboot my UNRAID server using the chkdisk fixed USB drive, and I got the same "no configuration file found" error.
I then decided to place a fresh install on the USB drive. After the fresh install using the USB creator tool from UNRAID's website, I copied my old config files onto the USB drive hoping that I could reboot with my old configurations.
I am now able to start my server and reach the UNRAID GUI from my browser, but none of my hard drives are assigned. Further, when I attempt to assign hard drives, they all state that it is a "new hard drive" (i.e., the used and free columns to the right are blank). At this point, I stopped and just powered downed the system out of fear that I will lose nearly 16 TB of data if UNRAID proceeded with formatting the apparently "new hard drives."
Any suggestions on how I can remount the drives while avoiding any data loss would be very much appreciated! Thank you in advance for your assistance.
