Ninjas! Removed Drive Shows pools as N/A

[help!]

had 3 disks in my array, in the raid 1 equivalent, they were all mirrored, I used to unplug the drive and swap to another system when needed. .


my offsite location pacfked up so i needed to mirror and put the mirror in the new system .

i used to just pull the disks, but i decided to do this

I clicked remove, button to remove a disk pool

plugged this into this into another Nas, (same SCALE-23.10.0.1) and there was no pool in the visual form of
Represented with N/A (photo just above)

The pool is gone , I then plugged this back int the original nas,

and the pool i not there and it shows up as N/A

they have just been resilvered and now I only have the one remaining disk left, one wrong move I loose everything ,,

Variables,

This didnt happen in the OS before cobia,

but This button I pressed is this wiping the pool on the disk?

as I just manually pulled out the second of three disks and plugged it into the other nas and again that corrupted

so 1 disk isnt seeing pools with TNS

now another one has gone the same way

How do I proceed?

zpool list -v

That disk shows no pool but it was cloned overnight the pol showed all 3 disks.

Thank you



Import pool button empty too

sudo zpool import
no pools available to import

If you software-remove a drive, you remove it from the pool; if you want to keep it in the pool you need to export the entire pool.

When you export it asks you whether you want to wipe the drive or keep the data.

so you are saying that if i clicked the button that i did

reove button , that that button wipes the drive? is this correct >

I don't see an option that says export or gives any insinuation that 'remove' is the incorrect selection that would disable the disk from being in use entirley


im a little confused here

 

[help!]

So can i recover that data or do i have to wait 24 hours for it all to clone again

And thank you for your wisdom. im here to learn

If you removed a drive from a VDEV you should wait for the resilvering to complete in order to reestablish the parity.

For how to export a pool please read the following documentation:
