How to freshly re-install Unraid without losing parity & data on shares?


Recommended Posts

Hi All - I'd like to start fresh with my Unraid server without deleting the ~12tb of data I have on it. I have version 6.12.10 installed.

 

The end result I'm shooting for:

  • All docker + vm settings reset to factory default (ok if docker containers and vms get nuked)
  • All unraid settings reset to factory default
  • Cache drive erased and reset completely
  • All shares, and data that resides in them, preserved.


Essentially I want to get rid of everything BUT the data that's living on my shares so I can have the same SMB layout when I start fresh. I'm fine with rebuilding the parity drive if I have to, but if that's not necessary it would be cool.

 

Can anyone point me in the right direction? Can't find a clear guide online that clearly specifies how to do this and I'm hoping to avoid losing my data. Appreciate the help.
