I ran a xfs repair on disk 3. Updated to latest version on unraid (I heard about some issues with the Fan plugin, which i had working good so that is why i hesitated to upgrade this one. But where do i go from here? Do i need to replace the hard drives? Both Parity 1 and Disk 3 failed. Not sure what to do next. I have 1 spare 14tb will wait for more instructions

I can't believe it but it seems like 2 14tb's failed at the same time. I been running smooth without any issues for a long period since the other issue back in July but at 11:43am today both drives (disk 3 and 1 of the parity drives) failed. I have not done anything yet but here is the diagnostics.zip file seeking some help again. Not sure if there is another issue going on because both drives stopped at same time with 'disk in error state (disk dsbl)' both have same message and when i click on the drives they both say 'a mandatory smart command failed' - I have been using Urbackup and have many large disk images on the server and i don't want to lose them. tower-diagnostics-20221122-1743.zip

What causes this error. using Fan Control Pluggin, but getting this strange error with permission denied. Not sure what this is. Unraid 6.11.2 (but it has not worked on this PC) which is an x570 s MSI motherboard. I don't know where the denied is coming from This is what occurs when it tryies the detect from autofan. Any help would be appreciated. <br /><b>Warning</b>: file_get_contents(/sys/devices/platform/nct6687.2592/hwmon/hwmon3/pwm2_enable): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in <b>/usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix.system.autofan/include/SystemFan.php</b> on line <b>40</b><br /><br /><b>Warning</b>: file_put_contents(/sys/devices/platform/nct6687.2592/hwmon/hwmon3/pwm2_enable): failed to open stream: Permission denied in <b>/usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix.system.autofan/include/SystemFan.php</b> on line <b>42</b><br /><br /><b>Warning</b>: file_put_contents(/sys/devices/platform/nct6687.2592/hwmon/hwmon3/pwm2_enable): failed to open stream: Permission denied in <b>/usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix.system.autofan/include/SystemFan.php</b> on line <b>50</b><br />/sys/devices/platform/nct6687.2592/hwmon/hwmon3/fan1_input

Upgraded from 6.11.1 to 6.11.2 - A little nervous after reading some of the issues but went without a hitch. Checked my VM's and Docker and SMB's and no issues so far. I still have another server on 6.9.2 but i'm afraid to update that yet. That can't go down if there are any issues.

Did all of the items you mentioned. After making the Cache Prefer, the size got larger (39g) but then today it dropped to (15g) With exception of VM Backup. Did not seem to work correctly (or at all). Took a look at it and snapshot ability but after trying it, it did not work so I gave up. I always thought the cache was to temp hold the information and each time mover runs, to move to the array so you are only in danger of losing something until mover runs.

Here you go, if too small to read, i can post 2 screenshots. I just blurred some personal info

Everything has been running good for the last month but one thing that i can not figure out is why the cache will not get moved to the array anymore. it's at 37.1g and normally the mover would take care of it but it's stopped and not totally sure why. Here is my diagnostics. Maybe you will catch something that I am not aware of. tower-diagnostics-20220827-1314.zip

trurl, just wanted to thank you once again for all your help a few weeks ago. Going to resize the docker file tonight by stopping docker, make copy of docker file, and delete it and hopefully reinstalling the applications without any problems (fingers are crossed).

Trurl, I am back and i believe the system is much better shape now. tower-diagnostics-20220719-1729.zip I still need to make the docker file smaller but i will do it this coming weekend when i have time. Thanks

Nice calm less stressful day today. It's currently at 75% of the process. Did the clear on the drive stats so all the drives except for one I am writing to is about the same writes now. Had a terrible lightning storm this afternoon and lost power for a 5 minutes, but no issue with UPS. But got my heart racing with "what if the power doesn't come back" but it did. Once the array is back to full, i will spin down all the drives I removed. I forgot about that last night. Recovered all the missing data from the drives and back in business as far as that. Trurl, i really appreciate the help you gave me - I would have ended up probaly losing the data and just starting fresh not knowing any better. There are tons youtube videos but when your in panic, you don't think clearly I will keep you updated once the last step is done and post diagostics.zip

These are the changes, i removed all others from array. But i still wanted 8

trurl, NEVER MIND BELOW - I figured out new config. I kept the pool disks and its in process of rebuild but when it started i got the following message about parity disk 2. Here are the messages: (This is going take DAYS so i will leave you alone until it's done and post another diagnostics at that same. Sound good? Sorry I'm asking so many questions.. I removed some disks from array and went to new config and i would only choose to preserve the POOL slots, is this correct? Didnt do it yet. just not sure if i preserve array. just not sure. so waiting before starting.

Yes, moved everything from disk2 and already got about 80% of the files, but still some data to go thru. In case it wasn't clear, disk 14 = Disk2 and it's got 11 more hours to finish the disk clean. Once that is added. I'm really not clear or sure of myself to not make a mistake with new config. So once the clear finishes, what do i do next when the drive is back online. As you are saying remove some of the 14tb's if i understand you (just take them out of the array)? Eventually I wanted to fill the other disks up with a large movie collection but like i said, these first 6 months was kind of a trial to see how it behaved and then slowly move data to this from the storage from QNAP's. Then back up this data to my other server a 5950x with simular configuration but only 4x14's with 1 parity rigjht now.

Here is the latest. Didn't do anything with docker size yet tower-diagnostics-20220716-1623.zip

I did do the unasssigned, see the previous message, but it wouldn't mount. I clicked mount, it said mounting, but went right back to mount.

I stopped array again, changed the disk assignment from disk 2 (still empty there) and put it in disk 14. It's a doing clean disk now. Is that what I should have done? I looked at the new config but i didnt want to cause a problem so i skipped that for now. Please advise what i should do. Been up for hours in the middle of night getting the files from lost+found so not thinking clearly at all.

When i try to mount the Disk2 from unassigned, it says mounting for a SECOND then back to mount. But i was able to copy all the lost+found and ID a good portion. Why I have so much space.. Great question but got a Fractal Meshify 2 XL and wanted to use all the drive bays, lol. I really just needed a big local storage/editing A LOT of 4k training videos and a very large sports collection/Concerts etc and before loading it up, i was giving it a running test for last 6 months to make sure the solution worked and became more trusting each month and got careless with some of the data as far as backups. I only used new config one time so i hope i dont mess up but going to try to get both drives back today. copied all the files off except some docker containers but have the whole appdata folder just in case.

I get it, but when the system froze, i was not able to get the drive array, the web page, nothing. Tried 2 different browsers. The console was frozen also. The dreaded rebuild of the array takes about 5-6 days but i really want to figure out what happened. I will get a little piece of mind. Going to do the unassign device and i will report back later

Trurl, why did have to be 5tb of data on that drive (lol) - still in process of copying the lost and found. 80% can be identified inside the folders but it's a huge pia. Any idea what could have happened that caused this or the file corruption? I figured when it froze up and i rebooted, i did the damage there but never had any issues before this and only thing crazy running was docker for Unmanic but that is something i've used many times previously. When i stop array and remove disk2, its going to rebuild array at this point. Then i should have both Parity drives back online? Then after that occurs, i add disk2 back in and let it rebuild again?

I don't have a spare right now. I did, but i used it for drives in the 2nd server. I am in process of going thru lost and moving things to the other server. Once I am done with copying the files. What would be the next thing to do?

Here are some screenshots of what it said. It seems like the repair was ok. I will do new diagnostics also. YES -- LOTS OF FILES / FOLDERS IN LOST+FOUND -- But can't I just rebuild from the Parity Disk 1 - (there are 4252 items) - I did what it said then ran it again and got the following at the end.. tower-diagnostics-20220715-0018.zip Here is the diag files. After the xfs fix... I REALLY APPRECIATE EVERYONES HELP WITH THIS..

I did everything in disk filesystem. stopped array. Ran in Maint mode, xfs_repair -v /dev/md2 (it ran and seems like it's ok) but disk2 is red X and 2nd parity is red X. I still don't see all the data from disk2. Do I spin it down (disk2) now??? All I have done is rebooted but disk2 is still not alive...... Not quite sure what to do.

Turl, How do i check file sys on disk2, the drive is not showing up. Never had any problems, this is all new for me to deal with. Not sure why i 250g for docker. I think someplace i read it was better to be too big then too small so i think that is the reason. My main fear right now is many files are missing from the drive so i assume this was on disk2. How do i get this back, i just want to copy it someplace safe (my other server). Initially, the server was froze up earlier today when i went to access it. Couldnt get to any shares or anything so I restarted the PC and that is where i saw the disk problems.

After checking the system as copying files, it seems all of the content that was on disk2 is not anyplace, but before i do a parity sync or anything. waiting for instructions or any assistance.

Here you go. Didn't even think of that in this stricken panic tower-diagnostics-20220714-1753.zip
