RAID 1 recovery on ZimaOS - how to do it?

[hlnk]

Hi,

I have a ZimaBoard with ZimaOS installed. I initially made a setup based on RAID 1 with two 750GB disks. One of them failed, so it entered recovery mode.

I bought another 750GB HDD to do RAID recovery and connected it to the machine, it is correctly detected as a separate drive, but ZimaOS won’t give me an option to start recovery and add it to the existing RAID.

MAIN_STORAGE is the RAID disk and HDD-storage is the newly added drive.
I have already formatted the new disk, and I see a recovery start option on other threads related to this issue but I don’t see any of that here.

My ZimaOS version is 1.4.1

Thank you
