May 22, 201511 yr I'm running Unraid 6 Beta15 I'm quite new to unraid and after changing case My dashboard showed me that my main data disk was invalid. I wen to the command line and ran: xfs_repair -n /dev/sda Phase 1 - find and verify superblock... bad primary superblock - bad magic number !!! attempting to find secondary superblock... [and it goes forever] I'm just wondering if this is a fixable corruption ? My parity is still valid and my apps seems to work. (I suppose this is normal) How would I proceed to fix this corruption If It's not fixable can I reformat the drive and rebuild from the parity ? And How would I do it Bare with me i'm not an unraid or an xfs expert I uploaded a screenshot of the grey Icon Thanks for your help
May 22, 201511 yr You're doing it wrong. Filesystems are on partitions, not on the entire device, ie: /dev/sda1. Never use /dev/sd# directly IF you want parity to remain intact. You should be using the /dev/md# device instead.
May 22, 201511 yr Author Ok thanks I ran it on the md device in maintenance mode, but I still get the grey icon. What do you think I should do next ? Thanks a lot i'm quite lost at the moment. Because If I mount /dev/md1 I can access the data and everything, so my disk seems fine
