May 1, 20251 yr Community Expert With the array running type: btrfs balance start -f -dconvert=single,soft -mconvert=dup,soft /mnt/cache When that's done, and with the array still running, type: btrfs device remove missing /mnt/cache Then you just need to reimport the pool with remaining device, stop the array first. On main click on the first device for that pool and then "remove pool" back on main, create a new pool with the same name and 1 slot assign the pool device(s), leave the filesystem set to auto start the array to import the pool

I then went to the next step and stopped the array and follwed the info. I received the same error and still have the same issue. As a newbie could you please explain where i am going wrong, shoould there be some indiaction does the script just work in the background or have installed the script wrongly? Thanks for your help .

May 5, 20251 yr Community Expert Solution Now, and with the array still running, type: btrfs device remove missing /mnt/cache Then you just need to reimport the pool with remaining device, stop the array first. On main click on the first device for that pool and then "remove pool" back on main, create a new pool with the same name and 1 slot assign the pool device(s), leave the filesystem set to auto start the array to import the pool
