boot for pendrive

[Paulohnk]

Hi,

I am about to install Unraid in my storage of 72TB, I see that it is possible to boot the operating system through a pendrive, but the doubt would be in case this pendrive fails in what way could recover the system?

 

Thanks

That is Unraid's recommended method. This way your config and stuff is not in your array (and you have all that space for your actual data).

Backup your config! Main > Boot Device > Flash > Backup

This will make a .zip of your flash drive. If you need to move to a new flash drive, just unzip the contents to the new one, run the makebootable script and plug it into the server.
