Can't "recreate" new zfs pool

Featured Replies

so, I had 4 disks that I was just testing with unraid in a zfs raidz1 and all was fine - then I went and added 6 more disks (10 total).

 

I went and deleted the pool and have tried to create a new pool with all 10 disks - but for some reason it wont - it appears to create fine - but then when I start the array I get all of these weird messages around :"Unmountable disk present:" as well as "unmountable wrong or no file system" - I get that for basically every disk.

 

I have nothing on any of the disks to keep - just want to start from scratch with all 10 disks in a raidz2 with one 10disk vdev - why on earth its not letting me do this - no clue!

 

Attaching diagnostics. Any ideas? Thanks!

Ok - newbie problem - 

 

Had to click the "Yes, I need to do this" under the Format button and then click format - I wish the errors mentioned something about formatting - this wasnt obvious to me especially since the Format button is greyed out.

Make sure you really intend to format all of the listed disks. It is possible to have a disk listed as unmountable that you don't want to format but need to repair instead.
