JorgeB Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 The problem is not the name, it's that the other device still belongs to tat filesystem: Feb 7 14:00:26 ASAS emhttpd: Total devices 3 FS bytes used 635.53GiB Feb 7 14:00:26 ASAS emhttpd: devid 1 size 953.87GiB used 654.06GiB path /dev/nvme1n1p1 Feb 7 14:00:26 ASAS emhttpd: devid 4 size 953.87GiB used 24.00GiB path /dev/nvme0n1p1 Feb 7 14:00:26 ASAS emhttpd: *** Some devices missing Feb 7 14:00:26 ASAS emhttpd: cache: invalid config: total_devices 3 num_misplaced 1 num_missing 1 You need to first remove the device for the pool or wipe it, if the pool does not need it, but the pool is still reporting another missing device, so that should be fixed first.

JorgeB Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 First lets try and fix the pool, don't wipe the other device for now in case it's needed, because the pool should not work with two missing devices, disconnect that device and post new diags after array start. Quote Link to comment

JorgeB Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Is the USB still the first boot device? You can also press the boot menu key and choose that. Quote Link to comment

JorgeB Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Not sure the problem is the additional NVMe, but try removing it. Quote Link to comment

JorgeB Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 You can see if it boots in a different PC, if the same it's likely flash drive issue. Quote Link to comment

JorgeB Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 If confirms the flash drive is not the problem, check the BIOS settings on the server or try resetting the CMOS. Quote Link to comment

mrpainnogain Posted February 8 Author Share Posted February 8 okay , finally it worked again now. all i had to do was updated the BIOS my mobo is z590 vision g and the version was F2 and now it became F8. i can boot again to unraid. it is weird though, i didn't do any softwares update. all i did was just added another NVME Quote Link to comment

JorgeB Posted February 8 Share Posted February 8 OK, just wanted to make sure the device is OK by itself, and it is, problem is that both NVMe devices were once part of the same pool, and if both are connected btrfs gets confused, you can reconnect the other device and wipe it, since you have UD installed suggest using it, less chance of making a mistake on which device to wipe, once it's wiped you can assign it to a new pool, start the array and format the new pool, but check that only the new pool has an unmountable device before formatting.

Solution JorgeB Posted February 8 Solution Share Posted February 8 As long as Destructive mode is enabled in the UD settings, you will see something like this after reconnecting the other device: Click the red X to wipe the partition. Quote Link to comment
