(Solved) Recover VMs After Unraid USB Died and Replaced?


Go to solution Solved by Inigma,

Hey all! So, me being a dummy and super complacent, I did not have  a back up of my config file from the Unraid USB when the USB died yesterday. The same USB was not readable on another system. It'd mount and unmount and show 0kb size.

 

I was able to replace the USB and transfer my license. I've identified my parity drive and let the parity check run with no issues. 

 

Now here's the question. I can see my folders with the names of my VMs in the domains share via the shares tab, but in the VMs tab, I have no VMs and likewise are no VMs under the VMs header on the dash board. Can I, and if so, how do I recover the VMs that I can see in the domains share?

I think I figured it out. It seems if I go through the process used to create them, naming and pointing them to the correct vdisk, but omitting selecting an install iso, They're added back to my VMs list and fire back up. 

 

Hope that helps someone else in the future.
