Can't add same disk to pool error?


thepregnantgod

Question

For some reason, my Disk 11 (4TB) was not in the pool.  I attempted to readd it after I added a drive letter and confirmed all the data was still there (and checking it for errors).

It got to 90% then said "can't add the same disk twice"

I was going to copy all the data over to the pool then format and add that way but it would take quite some time.

Here's my question - I did the following:

1. Went to the hidden folder "poolpart..." and cut all the folders within.

2. I pasted to the root of that individual drive

3. I took ownership of the poolpart folder - then deleted it

4. I then added the drive back to the pool.

Did I mess anything up - some internal database of duplication and such?
