Restore split raid1
Posted: Mon Apr 03, 2017 6:41 pm
Hello.
Is there a way to use R-studio to restore a Raid1 array?
I dont se raid 1 mentioned i questions nor in documentation
I have files and folders on the disks and the disks are S.M.A.R.T-wise okay.
I have a QNAP TS-469L and a lack experience of Linux(submitted some easy commands with the cut&paste method but without knowing what I was doing in detail).
Originally I had 4 dIsks in 2 raid 1 Volumes 2 6TB disks in one and 2 3TB disks in another.
But somehow I made some mistake so the raid was split and then I had 4 volumes instead of 2 but the 2 6TB volumes had the same name(and should be in one Raid 1 Volume) and the same for the 2 3TB disks.
Data are still in place but instead of a MD0_DATA and MD1_Data I now have one MD1_DATA(one of the 6TB-disks) and three new 50014EE058C82098_DATA(one of the 3TB-disks) 50014EE0AE1DB796_DATA(the other 3TB-disk) 50014EE2631334E2_DATA (the other 6TB-disk).
So somewhere in some lost files my guess are that I have files which connects and configures the Raid1 arrays but I dont know the filenames and and I dont know in which order to do it.
So if there are a faster way to use R-studio to restore the array otherwise I could either use WinSCP and copy the files to a NTFS formatted disk or run R-studio to do the same and then initiate the other disk and put in the QNAP and recreate shared folders and copy.
But I feel a bit unsafe to copy the whole bunch over the network or by a USBbay-connection directly to the NAS and also unsafe to run R-studio and restore fils and then copy from USB-bay via desktop via network to NAS.
