March 18, 20224 yr Hey All, As you can see I am missing Disk 3 above and would like to shift everything up from Disk 4 up one. Can anyone tell me a method I can do this ? It is okay if I have to rebuild one of the parity drives but as long as I don't have to rebuild both. Thanks!
March 18, 20224 yr Community Expert Solution Changing the drives to different slots invalidates parity2, but parity1 is unaffected. You could do what you want by: use the New Config tool using the option to keep current assignments go to the Main tab and unassigned parity2 and put the data drives into the slots you want check the option to say parity is valid start the array to commit the revised assignments. Since you ticked the parity is valid checkbox the drives should all mount fine and parity1 is NOT rebuilt stop the array assign parity2 start the array to start the build of the parity2 contents.
