Description of Issue
Installed ROCK on NUC10i7FNH1 is not recognized by Roon Remote on ipad or android mssg “Waiting for remote Core…”
*** NUC10 core replaced NUC8 that failed after 8 months working flawlessly.
Exact same network and connectivity environment, no changes from 8 months ago.
*** As orig NUC8 Rock died and I am licensed for one Core, does Roon Labs need to release my original sign on on NUC8 so I can use NUC10?
Rock unit shows on Windows wired PC and on wifi laptop under Network. Copied Codecs file to Rock Core NUC10 using PC.
NUC10 IP address listed after Rock install does bring up Roon Core status page on PC.—All OK.
RoonOS 1.0 (build 227) stable; Hostname ROCK.
Roon Server SW: Version 1.8 (build 795) stable
Seems I needed to Unauthorize the original Core and Login to New replacement Core.
Great, but as original Core unit failed completely, how can I restore my original playlists that took me 8 months to build?
I use Tidal frequently and have this under Roon now, but don’t see my Roon Playlists.
Do you happen to have any backups saved to another location such as Dropbox or a USB flash drive? If so you can restore your database with all your settings, library, and playlist with those.
Additionally, good catch with deauthorizing the old core and authorizing your new NUC. That’s required anytime you migrate your Core.
I’m sorry to hear that the NUC8 was a complete loss and that you’re unable to access the unit entirely. Unfortunately, without knowledge of your previous backup destination and the ability to restore any of those backups it means that you’ll be starting with a new database.
It truly pains me to have to communicate this to you James as it sounds like you spent quite a bit of time curating and perfecting your previous database. If there’s any chance that you retained any of your previous backups somewhere other than on the NUC8 we could restore your previous settings, playlists, and favorites.
To prevent situations such as this we strongly encourage frequent backups to safeguard against database loss. This article from our help center provides some recommendations that may be helpful to you.
