Cache drives unassigned

Featured Replies

Hi,

 

I have been troubleshooting shares that disappeared until rebooted. It turned out that one of the 2 cache drives was read only. While troubleshooting this I unassigned the drives while switching them. I did not format them, but followed information to remove and start array for unraid to forget then assign them. I am at a lost of how to restore them after several hours of reading forums. I have very little experience with unraid only setting up and forgetting until I updated from version 6.9.2 to current. Think that is what caused my drive to go out. Been chasing my tail ever since. Any help appreciated

I opened up the console and entered that and there was nothing coming up. It's like pressing enter. It did think for a moment before

That suggests the devices were wiped, and the output of:


 

fdisk -l /dev/nvme0n1

fdisk -l /dev/nvme1n1

Well, you burn and learn. Seems that info is gone. Thanks for your help. I have ordered new SSDs and will build the shares and dockers back up. Most of my info is on the array so shouldnt take me long. It taught me to make sure to review documentation and always do backups. What  backup option covers shares including appdata? I thought I read flash in one place, perhaps an old thread.

Welcome to fdisk (util-linux 2.38.1).
Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them.
Be careful before using the write command.

There are no partitions, suggesting the devices were wiped, it may still be possible to recover them if you wan to try, but if there wasn't any important data it may be easier to start over.

Thank you for your help. I will start over using what I've learned from you.
