Hi - new to HA with a Yellow and CM4.
I bought a pulled 512gb m.2, did a shut down and popped it in.
However the unit never came back online after plugged back in. There was traffic showing on the ethernet port. I left it for about 5 minutes.
It came back up quickly once removed.
I didn’t see I had to wait for any formatting processes before the system would come up. I don’t have any hardware to test or format it with.
Did I miss something?

Hello,
Sincerely don’t know, I don’t own a Yellow to try.
I hope you can troubleshoot the issue.

Thanks - my drive was on the naughty list so I bought one that was on the nice list.
Just very rarely experience a situation where adding hardware to a working system causes it not to boot.

‘Nice list’ drive worked as easy as I expected HA code to run. Need to remember to read more FAQ’s before versus after.
