Remove unused drive?

[phirephoto]

Hi All,

 

7.0.0.0 -2.

 

I had two non parity drives. Slot 1 - had no data on it. Slot 2 in an array / pool by itself. I removed the drive from slot 1 to replace it with a larger drive. 
Now I can't seem to change anything or get the array to start - Unraid seems to want the old drive. Old drive was a 4TB, new drive is 14TB.

Array device showing just the 2 4TB drives, which should be 2 14tb drives...

If I go to disk 1 it gives me no choices.

Disk 2 shows correctly the 8TB drive that's in slot 2.

 

Thanks!

You need to do a new config (Tools - New Config)

Will new config wipe any data on the drives? The wording "So that disks appear as new disks" has me a bit concerned..

Thanks!

Data disk slots are left untouched, parity slots are overwritten. Just don't assign anything to a parity slot and you'll be fine.

Awesome, thanks! 
Two last questions.. 
I'm now getting in my logs:

If I go to Shares, they look like they're there. I did a cleanup, that didn't seem to help. I never created these so I'm guessing they're 'stock'?

And last I hope for now
Booting up seems to take 30-40 minutes. My HDMI cable is flakey so I have a new one on the way. But it appears it hangs on "Verifying bzfirmware checksum." and sits for a good 20-30 minutes.
NAS is a QNAP TS-563
Thanks

Reboot and post the diagnostics.

tower-diagnostics-20240815-1204.zipThanks - here's the diags. The errors for /mnt seem to have gone away, but I timed it: Rebooted at 11:26 AM, came back online 12:03 PM.

[JorgeB]

After array start please

[phirephoto]

Ok - so I figured maybe the problem is one of the 4GB drives that came with the NAS was having in issue. I wasn't 'using' them so I removed them and rebooted. It now reboots in 3-4 minutes..

 

I now have the 3 drives from my older NAS - 8 TB, 14 & 12TB. Now the NAS comes online in about 3 minutes, but I have no arrays, no pools. I can't create a pool - won't let me choose any drives for the pool.  And the three drives (???) say one is not present and 2 are unmountable? (But there's only three drives...)

 

Here's the latest logs.

Because it's a 3 slot pool with only two devices assigned, was this an existing pool? If yes, which filesystem?

[phirephoto]

I don't believe I had the 4TB drive assigned to the pool so shouldn't be. I formatted all drives with the default - I want to say XFS? (it's whatever it defaulted to when you select format.) 

 

Thanks

[phirephoto]

Added back the 4tb drive - one of the 4 TB drives was a PITA to get out and I couldn't get it back in. Can't tell if the connector is bad or the caddy is bad but I don't want to force it in.

Pool devices show unmountable. 

 

If I try to add a share or modify a share, it only allows me to include disk 1

XFS cannot be used with a multi device pool, I'm still not sure what you are trying to do, do those disks have any data or do you just want to create a new pool?

My friend was able to remote in and square it away.. looks like perhaps 2 of the drives are actually bad Thanks for the help - wish I knew what he did, but apparently it was user error in how I set things up and the bad drive causing some wonkyness. All the data is still there, looks like I had a combination of data on the pool and the drive itself
