Hi Guys, 

 

I got a weird one for you, I'm hopping someone can help. I have attached a pic below showing the problem. 

 

When I moved all my drives from my old box to the new box, it seems like the old Sata controller added something to the disk S/N. As you can see the drive are the same just missing the WMY0 from the S/N. 

 

I'm hopping their is a config file somewhere I can edit to remove the WMY0 from the it so the system will see the same drive and spin back up. 

 

Any help would be great. Thanks in advance,

So I think I found a way, But dont know how to make it work. Looks like I Might need to edit the super.dat file. That files has all the array info in it. does anyone know how to edit it. it would seem what I just need to update the S/N to match the new controller. 

I have attached my Super.dat file if some one can help with the edits that needs to be made. 

 

Thanks in advance, 

super.dat

Simple way was use "new config", correctly assign the disk and mark parity "valid".

Thank you for the Info, I just have one questions, When I use the tool,  do i Preserve current assignments(array or pool) or not. i would think yes but wanted to get your thoughts on it. 

 

Thanks in advance, 

In this case, preserve or not not much different for array, because s/n incorrect and you need to reassign.

Thank you for all the help. The Array is back up and running. I was just a little scared for a few minutes with the process. I did not want to lose any of my data on the drives. Not to say i dont have backups, But recoving from 30Tb of data would take some time.
