Pulled an idle drive with array started, is there an alternative to rebuilt to clear error?

[nicholasserra]

Hey everyone thanks for looking. On version 6.9.2.

Did a stupid thing and pulled a drive from hot swap while array was started. No read or writes happening. Immediately placed back in, but drive went red X. Smart OK everything passing.

I know standard procedure seems to be "Rebuilding a drive onto itself" for this situation. But wondering if any process exists that basically says "trust the drive and the parity and just accept it's OK".

Figured i'd ask before I go rebuild a 14TB that i'm 99.99% sure is just fine.

Thanks!

We usually recommend rebuilding, as long the emulated disk is mounting and contents look correct, other option is doing a new config but you'll need to do a parity check, and that will take as long as the rebuild.

No point in attempting hot swap with array or pool devices since Unraid won't do anything with a disk until it is assigned, and you can't change assignments with the array started.
