January 29, 20206 yr So, i'm several hours into a drive rebuild (old drive was showing errors, and i put in a replacement), and i just got a call from my power company that they need to cut power to my house in about 12 hours to replace a transformer. The rebuild has about 14 hours left. Any suggestions on what I should do here? I have the old drive still in the box, so i assume the safe answer is to swap back to that one and then shut down until power is restored, then start the rebuild all over again. I also see that there is a "pause" button in the parity sync/rebuild section, is there a way to pause it, shut down, and then resume it later? Any other general thoughts/suggestions?
January 29, 20206 yr Community Expert Cancel rebuild and shutdown Unraid, when the power comes back one power up and it will start rebuilding from the beginning.
January 29, 20206 yr Are you on a UPS? My meter was replaced recently, it took about 5 minutes. If you want a riskier option your UPS might last that long
January 29, 20206 yr Author Thanks for the advice. I do have a ups but it's runtime is around 45 minutes and they're replacing a transformer so it'll be much longer than that. They've done a few others in the area this week and they took from 8am to 6pm. I ended up just cancelling and shutting down.
