[6.9.2] SMART settings wiped occasionally

  • Minor

Hi there. Happy user of unRAID for an eternity. Well, ish, but it's usually hardware's fault, not unRAID's fault.

 

Usually.

 

I recently had to upgrade my motherboard, and in the process, the ordering of my disk controllers got shuffled. No big deal, I had to change the SMART Settings, 3ware-related values per-disk. I wrote a handy script to identify disks for me under the terminal, just have to retype each one...

 

I entered each value, clicked Done, moved to the Identity section, verified it was the disk it was meant to be, then clicked the right arrow for the next disk. I eventually looped back to the start, as one does. When I scanned through them to verify the changes once more, they were mostly erased and back to default. Literally two disks did not reset themselves, for some reason. So, as I was changing them, it was (seemingly) occasionally eating the config file. I changed a few more, then went back, and they were gone again.

 

I assured myself I would gather logs and submit them, and then ..life happened, and I don't have logs of the event in question. I'll gladly recreate it if required.

 

At the mean time, I wrote a simple Bash one-liner, in order to;

 - scan three connected 3ware controllers, 12 disks per controller (my configuration)

 - output the disk serial number in the format used by unRAID to identify my disks

 - set up their tags in proper format to write into smart-one.cfg

 

It is:

 - Stupid

 - Lowest-effort

 - Functional

It is not:

 - Designed to be copy-pasted blindly by those not understanding exactly every word does adaptive in any way

 - Adaptive in any way

 - Likely to help many

 

Sharing it in case anyone needs it. I would imagine not many do, but this might be adapted to work on other controllers, or just more intelligently in general -- honestly this is a "my own tool, works where I need it" sort of thing.

 

for ctl in $(seq 0 2); do for dev in $(seq 0 11); do SER=`smartctl -a /dev/twa$ctl -d 3ware,$dev | grep Serial | awk  '{print substr($0,length-7,10)}'`; if [ $SER ]; then echo "[1AMCC_${SER}000000000000]"; echo smType=\"-d 3ware\"; echo smPort1=\"$dev\"; echo smDevice=\"twa$ctl\"; fi; done; done > /boot/config/smart-one.cfg

 

 

I can't attach a relevant diagnostics.zip file right now because the error in question was actually kind of a long time ago and I forgot to keep it. If required, I will go about recreating it and attach a new diagnostics zip, or more appropriate logs if required/requested.

 

 

EDIT: Is this also related to this flood of repeated messages? I get this SO MUCH, it literally 100% filled the log partition, it makes checking kernel logs absolutely useless, etc etc...
