February 18, 201610 yr I asked in an old thread, but didn't get any response, so I trying here. Can someone point me to instructions for putting a clean install of unRAID on a new flash drive (I have a 2nd/backup license available) and specifically getting it set up to work with what is already on my drives? Will it automatically find my current unRAID setup (data/shares) because the drives are already formatted properly?Almost positive this is the case, just like a "New Config" would do. Can I enable dockers and add the same containers and recover what I have already? If so, how? Are there specific files I need/should to copy over from the old flash drive? Pointers to other threads/wiki are fine for answers (just looking for confirmation of the right process). Just want to ask before I do anything and risk corrupting my array!
February 18, 201610 yr Make a list, screen shot, or something that shows you your disk serial numbers (identifiers, etc) and the assignment you gave them in the array (Parity, Disk1, Cache...). Then make sure you have all your configuration options written down. It won't automatically find your current unRAID setup, but it will generate user shares using the normal rules (but with default settings) You can enable dockers and add the same containers and point the config options to the same locations or where your config info was stored before... now this might not be possible with some containers that kept that internal to the container.... No you shouldn't copy any files over from the old flash drive. The biggest risk to corrupting your array is getting your disk assignments wrong (mostly your parity).
