Snapraid + Aufs: How to add a new harddrive?

  • I decided to add another HDD to my Snapraid + aufs setup. Before I make a mess of everything, I would like to review the procedure for this with you.


    1) Install the drive (and labelled it :) ) [done]
    2) Creat phyisical and logical volumes [done]
    3) Create a filesystem on the drive and mount it [done]
    4) Under Snapraid -> Drives add the drive as a data drive and include the content file
    5) Under pooling(aufs) -> Pools edit the existing pool and add a new branche (plus sign) with the new drive.


    Is that about it? Am I missing anything? I haven't done 4 and 5 yet.


    Best,
    TiredHornet
