The environment:
UNRAID 6.8.3
Data Drives: 12TB shucked WD EMAZs EDIT: All purchased from various stores 4 & 5 months ago.
Supermicro X10 board
m1015 LSI-flashed HBA card connecting data drives, parity/cache on mobo SATA
Array drives BTRFS encrypted
The issue:
Powered down to do some swapping around of gear above the Unraid machine in the rack. After booting the box, two drives simultaneously went missing (single parity drive ). Poked around dmesg and the drive logs and see the below:
Drives appear in UD wanting to be formatted.
Attempting to mount via command line while array isn't started (because it can't ), cryptsetup returns:
Fdisk -l return Input/Output error. Browsing /mnt/disk/by-id/ shows all the "working" drives and their partition e.g. sda, sda1, etc but just the drive and not partition for the two affected drives.
When looking at disk info in the GUI, the partition format shows "error" for the two drives, instead of GPT-4k.
I have tried placing the affected drives on different spots in the backplane and on the mobo SATA ports to the same results. All cables are secure. EDIT: No SMART errors shown.
So with allow the above, it sounds like my partition table is toast on both drives. I've got a couple of drives arriving today so I can dd the drives before attempting to fix, but I'm not sure where to start. Is there anyway I can recreate the partition data on the drives without blowing away the information? Is something else going on that I'm not seeing?
Greatly appreciate any help because I'm getting out of my depth quickly!
