SOLVED import disk

[kichawa_2]

Hi,

I'm newbie. I create stripe with 2 disk (like below).

then i choose 'import disk' with 3rd sata disk.

How can i unmount this?

When you use Import Disk, it mounts the disk, copies everything from it to the specified destination, and then unmounts it. There's nothing else for you to do.

yes, but i cant unmount the disk :<

What do you mean? The disk isn't mounted.

Let me see if I can clear it up...

/mnt/backup_2x250 is the destination that your files were copied to and I suspect you think that the drive you mounted is that destination. When you mount a drive the way you did, as previously stated, all the files on that device will be automatically copied to the destination location and once done that device will be automatically unmounted. This feature is only good for copying data from an external device on to your pool. Have you read the User Guide on the use of Import Disk?

What was the goal that you wished to achieve? Was it to add the drive to your striped pool, copy data over, create a new pool? Adding a drive to your pool is a different operation.

BTW, a striped pool isn't the safest way to go for a FreeNAS setup, one drive failure means all data is gone, but you are learning so please read the forums and you will see where people make a lot of mistakes and many things bite them in the rear because they do not listen to sound advice. If you are just playing around and learning, now is the time before you lock in a system, make as many mistakes as you can, try every scenario you can because once you start putting your data on the device, you won't want to risk data loss.

Ok. I've got it. So all files and directories were copied to the pool. Thank you for your reply.
