Another update - rebuild time is now up to 100 days I see the drive activity lights coming on across the board for a few seconds then going back to idle, over and over again. No errors reported on the dashboard. The appdata and domain shares have disappeared from the list. The dockers that I do have turned on seem to be ok except for MariaDB which refuses to start. The log shows I/O errors trying to read/write to /mnt/user/appdata. appdata and domains were both set to cache only. There doesn't appear to be any issue with the cache drives which are set to RAID10. I can access the files through /mnt/nucache no problem. Normally on a rebuild or parity check I'll get 60-90 MB/s and it takes 2-3 days. Now it's going around 2 MB/s. I grabbed the backup file from the database and set it up on a VM on another host, so I don't need to worry about that not working. Some shares are reporting 0 free space while others are showing the 84 TB free on the array. The shares reporting zero are not accessible from my proxmox server (array and isos) None of these shares use the cache except for one named uploads, which seems to be working fine. Array is where I was storing proxmox backups, isos is where I store boot disk images for proxmox (and unraids vms) so this is more of an inconvenience than a problem - except in how it could be a sign of bigger problems.

I put the 14 tb drive that I thought was DOA back in, and it seems to be working now, but there's something screwy going on. The rebuild of disks 10 and 22 is going but very slowly. The appdata share has disappeared from the shares list, but I can see it in the shell at /mnt/user/appdata. When I looked in /mnt disk22 is saying I/O error (screenshot) I've attached a new diag file. Thanks so much for looking at this, I'm going nuts trying to figure out what's going on. The 16TB drive is four months old, well under warranty but it looks like Toshiba's support is absolute crap - I have to send the drive back and then wait for a prepaid visa in the mail. unraid-diagnostics-20230319-1414.zip

So things are getting worse. The Toshiba drive failed and got kicked out again, and when I tried mounting it in unassigned devices to see if the data was still there, it threw some I/O errors. The 4TB drive that was the problem originally seems to mount fine in unassigned devices and I was able to run a diff to see the differences between the emulated drive and the disk. Maybe I'm grasping at straws here, but if I use unBalance to move everything off the failed drives, then do New Config with both those drives left out should that work?

Unraid 6.11.5 So one of my old drives died, I replaced it with a drive that ended up being DOA. When I removed the drive and went to recheck everything one of the other drives (the 16T toshiba) wasn't sitting right , causing it to be disabled. So now it's trying to rebuild that drive back, the other one is missing while I wait for a replacement to arrive, and it's going ridiculously slow. It will speed up for a second or two, maybe a minute, then it drops to 0.0 write on the drive. It's not throwing any errors, but I cant spend half a year waiting for it to finish at the current rate. I have the original 4TB drive, and it looks like the data is intact, maybe it was a problem, but because I tried to replace it with the 14tb DOA drive, I can't put it back in. Is there anything I can do? unraid-smart-20230318-1317.zip unraid-smart-20230318-1309.zip unraid-diagnostics-20230318-1307.zip

I believe it was caused by upgrading Unraid, there were a couple other instances where permissions were changed.

Nevermind I got it! The /mnt/user/appdata/mariadb-official/data and /config directories were set to root:root I chown them to nobody:users and it looks like it's back in business!

I just upgraded Unraid to 6.10.3 and everything is fine EXCEPT for MariaDB 😞 Here's the error I'm getting: [code] 2022-06-19 12:17:21 0 [Note] mariadbd (server 10.8.3-MariaDB-1:10.8.3+maria~jammy) starting as process 1 ... 2022-06-19 12:17:21 0 [Warning] Can't create test file /var/lib/mysql/a42249648c38.lower-test 2022-06-19 12:17:21 0 [ERROR] mariadbd: Can't create/write to file './ddl_recovery.log' (Errcode: 13 "Permission denied") 2022-06-19 12:17:21 0 [ERROR] DDL_LOG: Failed to create ddl log file: ./ddl_recovery.log 2022-06-19 12:17:21 0 [ERROR] Aborting 2022-06-19 12:17:33 0 [Note] mariadbd (server 10.8.3-MariaDB-1:10.8.3+maria~jammy) starting as process 1 ... 2022-06-19 12:17:33 0 [Warning] Can't create test file /var/lib/mysql/a42249648c38.lower-test 2022-06-19 12:17:33 0 [ERROR] mariadbd: Can't create/write to file './ddl_recovery.log' (Errcode: 13 "Permission denied") 2022-06-19 12:17:33 0 [ERROR] DDL_LOG: Failed to create ddl log file: ./ddl_recovery.log 2022-06-19 12:17:33 0 [ERROR] Aborting 2022-06-19 12:17:19-07:00 [Note] [Entrypoint]: Entrypoint script for MariaDB Server 1:10.8.3+maria~jammy started. 2022-06-19 12:17:21-07:00 [Note] [Entrypoint]: MariaDB upgrade information missing, assuming required 2022-06-19 12:17:21-07:00 [Note] [Entrypoint]: MariaDB upgrade (mariadb-upgrade) required, but skipped due to $MARIADB_AUTO_UPGRADE setting 2022-06-19 12:17:33-07:00 [Note] [Entrypoint]: Entrypoint script for MariaDB Server 1:10.8.3+maria~jammy started. 2022-06-19 12:17:33-07:00 [Note] [Entrypoint]: MariaDB upgrade information missing, assuming required 2022-06-19 12:17:33-07:00 [Note] [Entrypoint]: MariaDB upgrade (mariadb-upgrade) required, but skipped due to $MARIADB_AUTO_UPGRADE setting [/code] So it looks like a permission error, but how do I get to it to reset the perms?

I've attached a new diagnostics. I ended up migrating my web app vm to my pve cluster, which I probably should have done anyways. The other VM seems to be ok, it is only a quorum device for the pve cluster, and it is reporting as a vote once again. Almost everything seems to be back to normal, system load is back to being 30-50% instead of 80-100%. It's still in the middle of a full parity-check but it seems to be going at normal speeds. My containers all seem to be working again, although I do see flood reporting that every 10 minutes or so transfers just stop for like 5 seconds, then it takes 3-5 seconds to get back to full speed. unraid-diagnostics-20220124-0145.zip

for no reason I can tell, things look like they are coming back to normal. Restarting docker containers is only taking seconds instead of minutes again, the vm's are booting and getting to a login prompt in reasonable time, etc. Everything still seems slower than it used to be though and I am still clueless about what the cause could be.

Hello all, This morning my son was watching a movie when it started buffering. When I looked at my unraid dashboard all the cores were pegged at 100%. I tried rebooting and even turned off some VMs and dockers, to no avail. The reboot came up unclean so it has started a parity check, which normally only causes some slowness with disk transfer but the containers and VMs usually work fine. This time the VMs are not completing boot, they delay at the bios splash screen for around a minute or so, and then eventually time out waiting for the vdisk. From the console of one VM: [ TIME ] Timed out waiting for device dev-disk-by\x2duuid-3657111a\x2d1f89\x2d4906\x2dabf7\x2daba104ab1ca1.device [DEPEND] Dependency failed for /boot [DEPEND] Dependency failed for Unattended Upgrades Shutdown [DEPEND] Dependency failed for /boot/efi [DEPEND] Dependency failed for Local File Systems [DEPEND] Dependency failed for File System Check on /dev/disk/by-uuid/3657111a-1f89-4906-abf7-aba104ab1ca1. You are in emergency mode. After logging in, type "journalctl -xb" to view system logs, "systemctl reboot" to reboot, "systemctl default" or "exit" to boot into default mode. Give root password for maintenance The other VM gets to the login prompt, but trying to reach the web app I built on it times out. I tried logging in but it hangs without asking for the password. Both VMs are Ubuntu 20.04 As for my docker containers, I figured the problem would be with flood, but I have stopped it and the system is still hanging all over. Flood never gets to loading the UI, Sonarr and Radarr UI's also wont come up, with what looks like timeout errors in the log. I haven't added anything new to unraid in weeks, the only change was replacing a SAS breakout cable and re-adding a 4TB drive that was having issues (because of the old cable). Oddly enough, after the reboot, Plex (hosted on a different computer, but reading the movie files from the array over NFS) seems to have no problem, movies are streaming ok despite the system load. If anyone can suggest where to look I'd really appreciate it! unraid-diagnostics-20220123-1641.zip

After installing the new update, it is working again for me.

db-backup doesn't seem to be working anymore, the last backup it did was Jan 7. I looked at the logs and I am getting: 2022-01-17-14:12:56 [44m[WARN][49m ** [db-backup] MySQL/MariaDB Server '' is not accessible, retrying.. ( seconds so far) 2022-01-17-14:13:01 [44m[WARN][49m ** [db-backup] MySQL/MariaDB Server '' is not accessible, retrying.. ( seconds so far) 2022-01-17-14:13:06 [44m[WARN][49m ** [db-backup] MySQL/MariaDB Server '' is not accessible, retrying.. ( seconds so far) 2022-01-17-14:13:11 [44m[WARN][49m ** [db-backup] MySQL/MariaDB Server '' is not accessible, retrying.. ( seconds so far) over and over. I have not made any changes to the docker template, and the values appear to be right. the database is working fine with my application and phpmyadmin. Any idea how I can get this working again?

I was able to recover my appdata and domains folders using Diskinternals Raid Recovery, formatted the two 1TB SSDs and made them a RAID1 pool. I'll look to replace the 4TB that is throwing errors and when it's replaced make them a seperate pool.

I recently added a few SSDs to form a cache pool. It was running for about a day, then things started to get real slow and one of the cache drives reported a ton of CRC errors. When I rebooted the unraid server, it dropped the drive from the pool. I replaced the cables and swapped some drives around, and now it sees the drive again, but the cache pool won't mount and filesystem checks say "device 2 missing". Is there a way to recover the data, eject the disk from the pool, and get the others working again? unraid-diagnostics-20220117-1517.zip

Chrome, but did appear to be a cache issue. Thanks!

If I try to open a console to any docker container, I get a blank window. Same if I try to open Unraid's console. If I try to use NoVNC to connect to one of Unraid's VMs, It does not ever connect. These were all working fine before, and I can SSH into the VMs no problem, but I can't fix docker containers if I can't access the console.

Found it in the plugin tab on the bottom half of the screen, says it is enabled, I unloaded it and hopefully that will stop it from unzipping everything

How can I disable the unpack plugin? The box is unchecked in the options, but it is unzipping all the files and leaving them in the same directory. This is pretty nice for some things, but I downloaded a 2.5 TB torrent that has tons of zip files and it's given unraid a heart attack 😮

Think I found the problem - if the connection is lost while a folder is open this can happen. In my case I had a dos prompt open on the drive which was keeping it from recovering properly.

Hi all, I have a share called "download" on my unraid server, which is exported via NFS. My linux hosts don't seem to ever have a problem with it but frequently my Windows 10 hosts that have the share mapped as a local drive will see files instead of folders in the drive. E.G. there is a movie file that is 1.7 TB in size instead of a folder with multiple files. I can fix it pretty easily by disconnecting and re-mapping the share, but that is a real pain. I guess I could probably figure out a script to handle when this happens but I was hoping maybe someone out there had a better solution? I was surprised I could not find any other incidents of this in the forums but maybe it's a little tough to describe. Edit: Also when I go to disconnect the share, it says there are open files, is there a way to see what files are in use? I tried using fsmgmt.cpl but that is for outbound shares. Thanks!
