I don't think New Config is your problem.

 

Looks like your drives are already assigned, but they are all unmountable.

 

Can you give us more detail about how you got to this state? Any hardware changes?

Still not sure what you have done.

 

If you try to add a drive to an array that already has parity, it will clear the drive so parity will remain valid.

 

Did you attempt to add drives after doing New Config?

[reza59]

yes

Your diagnostics are dated Aug 9. Are you sure these are the current diagnostics? If so, why is your server date wrong?

 

When you booted "Jul 26" all drives mounted, then later "Aug 9" nothing mounted.

 

Why did you do New Config anyway? You can replace parity with a larger disk without doing New Config.
