Migrating xfs encrypted data disks to new build without losing data

Featured Replies

Hi,

 

I hope everyone is doing well!

 

I have two data disks that are formatted with "xfs encrypted" and contains data. My previous motherboard isn't working anymore so I have to build a new one. For some reason, the USB stick I used with the previous build is not working with the new build so I have to create a new unraid USB disk. I copied my /config from the old USB stick into the new USB stick and booted successfully. Now when I tried to add the two encrypted data disks, I am being asked to enter new a new key. I have used a  passphrase key with the two data disks previously.

 

Now here are my problems:

  1. Why am I being asked to enter a new key?
  2. If I enter a new key, would I still be able to access the files within the two data disks or data would be lost?
  3. What's the best way to add existing encrypted data disks into new unraid server without losing data?

 

Thanks for the help!!!

Because of the new config.

Use the original key.
