Can I temporarily exclude 3 disks so I can start the array?

Featured Replies

Hi,

 

I’m on holiday at the moment and I have a multi-disk hdd enclosure that for whatever reason has become disconnected from the server. I’ve tried rebooting the system but it doesn’t even detect the drives with f-disk, so I’m assuming I need to physically unplug and plug it back in.

 

Unfortunately that’s not possible from my hotel room so I was wondering if I can temporarily exclude the drives somehow just so I can start the array?

 

I don’t use parity drives and I have one cache drive (which is detected). Mostly I want to start my docker array (I don’t have any vms).

 

I’m guessing this is a long-shot as my rudimentary understanding of the unraid array suggests all the Appdata files will be fragmented throughout the missing disks and will fail to start. If I’m mistaken and one of you fuckers much smarter than me know how to do it, that would be awesome. :)

You can do a new config (Tools -> New config).

Will that make me lose all the files on the other 3 disks though? Or will I just be able to "New Config" again when I get home and reconnect them?

If you don't have parity you can just add them back to the array.

Or you can see how much of each disk is used by each user share by clicking Compute... on the User Shares page
