trurl Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 Is there some problem with your boot flash? Do you have a flash backup? Quote Link to comment
NeedAMulligan Posted October 28, 2021 Author Share Posted October 28, 2021 (edited) correct. the flash got destroyed... i am not confident that i have a backup of it either. this is the worst Edited October 28, 2021 by NeedAMulligan Quote Link to comment

Doesn't sound as if you are confident that you DON'T have a backup either. Do you or don't you? Even an old backup might be useful. Do you have a copy of your license .key file? It is possible to figure out which disks are parity, and get your disks assigned accordingly without losing data on those disks, but without a flash backup you will be starting from scratch with your configuration.

trurl Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 Do you have any saved diagnostics or syslogs, or status emails from your server? Those can be used to determine disk assignments. Quote Link to comment
NeedAMulligan Posted October 28, 2021 Author Share Posted October 28, 2021 (edited) i am currently looking to see if i have a copy of my flash drive as far as configuration i can redo all that. it's the data that i don't want to loose Edited October 28, 2021 by NeedAMulligan Quote Link to comment

Your appdata will be OK, but your dockers won't know how to use it unless you set them up exactly as before. Quote Link to comment
NeedAMulligan Posted November 1, 2021 Author Share Posted November 1, 2021 i followed the steps as outline using option 2 with a new setup to see which disks were parity disks. that worked out as i had 2 parity and 3 data drives the concern i have is that i am only seeing 106gb of data on the disk when i had several tb Quote Link to comment
JonathanM Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Do you have any ports forwarded through your router, or is your server in the DMZ? Quote Link to comment
