I want to do a test run of snapraid's functionality. I have a pool of 5 drives - 4 data, 1 parity. I removed one of the drives, plugged in a blank, new one in its place, and now I want to restore the missing files in the new HDD. How do I do that?
What I've tried so far is to:
1. Run Snapraid's diff (correctly shows the missing files), then both fix and undelete. But undelete restores them in the wrong place - the old drive was mounted in a certain folder, and now that that folder was missing, snapraid recreated it under the root FS. So it ends up restoring under /srv/dev/<drive>, making the root partition run out of space.
2. Remove the drive from Snapraid's config, but that just makes it complain about the missing drive -
Disk 'xata2' with uuid 'E692307392304A77' not present in the configuration file!
If you have removed it from the configuration file, please restore it
I want to preferably recover the missing files from within the web interface, but I'm comfortable with SSH/console as well.
