After moving all my disks and unRAID USB from a Dell R720 to a freshly made PC I an now unable to start the array. Here is what I've done:
Built new PC, with 2 x H310 in IT mode
Testing with a "trial" unRAID USB OS, all worked, get boot screen, detects spare drives I was testing with
Moved over existing disks
Swapped for "live" unRAID USB
No output to screen on boot, eventually managed to login via web interface though
No all disk aren't recognised, see screenshot below
I haven't tried to fix this yet, I'm assuming the issue is because the drive serial numbers are different in the new server. This is what I think I might need to do to fix it, but was looking for someone to confirm before I go and trash everything by think that I know what I'm doing 😉 The one thing I have learnt in IT, is that I don't know everything, so don't be afraid to ask.
Go to TOOLS-> New Config
Preserve Current Assignments "All" (You can see from the screenshot that I've reassigned the drives, but not 100% sure "all" is correct)
check "I want to do this"
then APPLY
Alternatively, I was going to do this:
Go to TOOLS-> New Config
Preserve Current Assignments "None"
check "I want to do this"
then APPLY
following that
re-assign disks based on the screenshot
Start the array and check parity is already valid
Do parity check
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
