trurl's post in GUI Mode black screen, although it worked once using another USB stick was marked as the answerYou need to use the same flash drive but configure it for legacy. You can do that from the webUI, Main - Boot Device - Flash - Syslinux Configuration, uncheck UEFI.
Or just rename EFI folder on flash to EFI-

Then you manually ran a correcting parity check which corrected the errors the non-correcting parity check found.

Do you know why you had unclean shutdown?

trurl's post in Redistribute data after changing Allocation settings? was marked as the answerIt doesn't redistribute the data, and you don't need it to. It will distribute the data as new data is written according to the settings for each share.
Highwater is the default allocation method, a good compromise between using all disks eventually, without constantly switching disks just because one disk temporarily has more free than another.
-
trurl's post in Best way to handle disk reporting smart errors after copy? was marked as the answerSince there is some doubt about your parity, rebuilding to a new disk might not produce a good result, but since you presumably don't need the data on the disk now, I guess that is as good a way of proceeding as any. Disk1 has to be rebuilt, or parity has to be rebuilt. Assuming no other problems during rebuild, either way would get the array back in sync, and you could just reformat disk1 after the rebuild since its data has been copied off.

trurl's post in Manual upgrade to 6.5.3 was marked as the answerUse the Download link at top of the forum, replace all bz* files in the top folder of flash with those from the download.

trurl's post in Time to biggify a drive in my array (again), and the CRC error I am faced with..what next? was marked as the answerCRC errors are just connection problems recorded by the drive firmware, they won't reset to zero but a few occasionally are OK. If they are increasing you need to figure out what the connection problem is. Looks like that warning is referring to an Unassigned Device not seen in your screenshot, presumably the new drive.
I usually don't bother with preclear but you can if you want. Rebuilding to that new disk will be a good test anyway, and as long as you have the original should be little risk.
To rebuild to another disk, just assign it to the slot you are replacing and start the array.
-
trurl's post in Newbie unable to assign disks on Main Page: just can't see how to do it was marked as the answerClick on the drop down for the parity slot and select the disk you want to assign as parity. Similar for others.
If that doesn't help post a screenshot of Main

trurl's post in Server out of memory error was marked as the answerNot sure what you mean by system file. I was talking about the system share, which is a folder on one or more disks. Ideally it would all be on fast storage (cache).
If appdata and system are on the array, dockers/VMs won't perform as well due to slower array, and array disks can't spindown since these files are always open.
Nothing can move open files. You have to disable Docker and VM Manager in Settings before these can be moved.

trurl's post in Moving Servers - Cache Issue/help Needed! was marked as the answerFlash it to IT mode. Best if you don't try to use RAID controllers with Unraid.

trurl's post in Cant enaable docker on unrid was marked as the answerUntil it is formatted, you have no storage to work with. Check the box to enable the Format button.

trurl's post in Recreating Array from Old Disk was marked as the answerYou could New Config the original back into the array and rebuild parity.

trurl's post in (SOLVED) 6.9.2 - Drive disabled, help with SMART report please was marked as the answerThat looks OK but a medium error on that disk was logged earlier in syslog.
Disabled disk5 has to be rebuilt. Unraid disables a disk when a write to it fails for any reason. It has to because the failed write makes it out-of-sync. After disabling, the disk isn't used again. Instead, all access to the disk is emulated from the parity calculation by reading parity and all other disks. That initial failed write, and any subsequent writes, are emulated by updating parity, and can be recovered by rebuilding.
Emulated disk5 is mounted and is over half full, so looks like that is all working well.
It's always safer to rebuild to a spare, and so keep the original just as it is in case there is any problem rebuilding. But it's probably OK to rebuild to the same disk if you don't have a spare.

trurl's post in Share used disk not in allowed list was marked as the answerThose user share settings only apply to new files. If that share already had files in other places you will have to move them yourself.

trurl's post in Where do I set minimum free space for Cache? was marked as the answerSince v6.9+ allows multiple pools, each pool has its own settings. Click on the first disk of the pool.

trurl's post in Need help with adding to my array was marked as the answerAnd parity resync would be a good test of your connections before attempting rebuild again.

trurl's post in system forced shutdown after 90 second wait was marked as the answersdf in those diagnostics was the first disk in a pool named torrent, formatted btrfs. sdg was the other disk in the pool, but it was listed in the smart folder as sdp so it must have disconnected.
And the errors in syslog are, in fact, for sdg

trurl's post in Why can't I log into Unraid GUI with another user account I've created? was marked as the answerThe answer in case anyone else is wondering, is that only root has access to the webUI and command line. The other user accounts are strictly for network file access.
