Upgraded from 5.0-rc5 to 5.0-rc11 but not sure if its right

Hi there.

 

I decided to upgrade to rc11 today, so i took a disk image of my flash drive, copied over the updated files and removed super.dat, as per the instructions. I then restarted, and re-assigned my drives. I'm too scared to start the array though as it states it's in a state of Initial Configuration. Is this normal? Attached are pics of my rc5 config and rc11.

 

Thanks for reading.

You didn't needed to remove super.dat to upgrade from rc5 to rc11 (maybe you looked at instructions to upgrade from beta5 and not from rc5?)... Anyway I think you should be able to start the array with "Parity is already valid" option enabled and then manually run a parity check and see if all ok (0 errors).

I probably did look at the wrong one

 

No problem I'll just restore that file and restart..
