brand0ne Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 (edited) I am new to Unraid and been using for about 3 months now. If anyone can help point me in the right direction to a solution or just tell me that there isn't one so I can start the rebuilding process, it would be greatly appreciated. This is what I have: 1 - 4TB parity and 3 - 4TB drives for a total of 12TB's 3 - 500 GB drives that form a cache pool Everything was going well until my cache drive kept getting full to the point that it even when trying to move files, nothing would happen. I was using less than 10% storage on my Array so I could not figure out why my files were not moving from the cache to the array. After trying several times with no success, I came to the incorrect conclusion that they files must already be a part of the array and they are sitting on the cache drive as well for quick access. So my solution was to install another drive to increase the cache pool, a 2TB drive. I didn't have room to add the drive so I removed 1 of the 500 GB drives and installed the 2TB drive in place. When I started the array the 2TB drive and 1 other cache drive started formatting. When finished, I realized that I had made a big mistake and lost quite a few files. I put the 500 GB drive back in and took the 2TB out until I can figure things out. I have also noticed that this has also caused so docker apps not to run as well. Thanks in advance for anyone taking the time to read this and/or respond... Edited May 17, 2020 by brand0ne Quote Link to comment

JorgeB Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 Pool has 3 assigned devices but only 2 are actually part of the pool, but appears to still be working, though completely full, move all data to the array, then worry about fixing it. Quote Link to comment
brand0ne Posted May 18, 2020 Author Share Posted May 18, 2020 I have everything that was in the cache pool relocated to the array. Any suggestions on what I can do to try to recover data? New diagnostics attached. tower-diagnostics-20200518-1451.zip Quote Link to comment
