December 29, 20232 yr Community Expert Open a terminal window and execute 'zpool import' Share the results..

December 29, 20232 yr Community Expert Solution So pool only has 4 members, any special reason you assigned devices 1 2 4 5 and left 3 empty? Unassign all pool devices, start array, stop array, now reassign them to slots 1 2 3 4 in the same order as the zpool status, so: sdg sdh sdj sdi Start array and the pool should import.

I skipped slot 3 because I had 5 HDDs but one showed it was failing. So I removed it and it was in the 3rd slot on the HDD cage. Figured I'd leave that slot open if I replace it later. If that is the issue... then no big deal, I'll use 1-4. How do I go about unassigning the HDDs from the the datapool? Do I just go to the Main tab, click the drop down for each slot and select no device? If that is the case, I tried that, then once the datapool had no device selected for each, I could not start the array, it says missing cache disk. Even though the cache disk is separate from datapool. It is a nvme SSD. Thanks in advance for the help.
