Volumes Name Conflict (error code 1014020000)
Hiello,
I'm running 3 x RAID1 Volumes on a RN31600.
I needed to upgrade one of the Volume (DISK_1) to a bigger capacity but don't want to "Destroy" the volume in case something goes wrong in my backup and I need to reinstall the volume again.
I made a backup of "DISK_1" on an external USB, removed the 2 disks belonging to the RAID1 volume "DISK_1" , plugged in 2 new disk with a bigger capacity and format them.
In order to keep our worflow running smoothly I wish to re-use the name "DISK_1" for the new RAID1 volume. Unfortunatelly I got a error code 1014020000 " A Volume with the specified name already exist in the system" when trying to assign the name "DISK_1" to a new RAID1 Volume.
Is there anyway I can re-use a volume name without destroying the previous volume?

Hello komm_it,
I apologize but using the same volume name on 2 different volumes will not really work. They will conflict with each other if you do so that is why it won't work that way.
How about adding another character instead?

Hello JennC
Thanks but it seems that, if I want to re-use the same Volume name, I'll have to "destroy" the previous volume in order to "free" the name.
I gess that it's what I'm going to do. I just wanted to avoid detroying the previous array in case the copy i made on an external USB disk fail.
Well, I will have to make a backup of the copy and then destroy the array. I can't take the risk to have only one copy of the data even for a few hours.
Thanks again for you answer.
