Unraid saying wrong drive in slot in cache pool

Featured Replies

Rebooted my unraid server and when it came back up it's reporting the same drive should be in both slots of my cache pool. 

Tried to start array without pool but then unraid says too many drives are missing and can't start array. Any tips on fixing this?

I've got the cache pool going again. Steps I took for anyone running into this in the future:

 

  1. Step 1: Back up everything off the cache pool:
    1. SSH into unraid server, mount one of your cache drives, back everything up.
      1. cd /mnt
        
        mkdir tempmount
        
        #Find out what your cache drives device is using lsblk and then mount it read only.
        mount -o ro /dev/nvme0n1p1 /mnt/tempmount
        
        #I backed up the cache to my local machine
        #Open local terminal and execute rsync
        
        rsync -avh --progress "[email protected]:/mnt/tempmount/" ~/Desktop/cache_backup
        
      2. Go into unraid > Tools > New Config > Preserver Current Assignments > Array > Apply
      3. Go to Main > Add Cache Pool > Assign cache drives like they were before reboot > Check the Parity Valid box > Start array

All of my data seems to be intact on the cache pool, so no need to the backups we made!
