Thanks! For some reason I didn’t even notice anything writing to the array. I stopped it was able to successfully complete the data rebuild.

Thanks for your reply! You are correct I didn’t do the swap procedure just replaced and rebuilt. I don’t have any Errors in the column.

Hello, I recently had a hard drive fail I removed it and replaced it with a drive that was larger than either of my parity drives. After swapping the larger drive to parity I used the old parity drive as a new data drive. I have started the data rebuild but it’s showing anywhere from 24 to 52 days until complete. Diagnostics attached. Any idea why such a long time? In the past these have been less than a full day for sure. Thanks! tower-diagnostics-20230911-2032.zip

Thanks again for all your help!

Replaced the cables. Everything seems to be back to normal. Logs attached. tower-syslog-20230128-1244.zip

So its been a while but the parity disks are both showing disabled again when I went to login. Here is the syslog and diagnostic log from today. Can anyone make sense of this for me? syslog tower-diagnostics-20230125-1146.zip

Thanks! Ill post them as soon as it crashes again. It seems to be a daily occurrence.

Also whatever is happening has again trashed most of my docker containers. I had to fix the plex database again (corrupted). NGINX container and SABnzbd containers also showing errors when trying to open. The other containers function fine it seems.

So I ran a non correcting parity check and at some point during it something again happened. I was not able to reach the GUI for unraid. Plex not running, IP was not pingable, and when I connected a monitor I didn't get anything. So again rebooted. Is there a way for me to get diagnostics when I cannot reach the GUI?

I am having an issue where my parity disks are showing up as disabled. I have unassigned and reassigned and now letting the parity sync go though but I would like to figure out why this happened. I have been having a few issues as of late it started with my Plex docker container not opening up the GUI. After doing a database repair it seems that the problem had been corrected but now I have having the same problem again. Any help with these issues would be much appreciated. Thanks! tower-diagnostics-20221227-1738.zip

Thank You! The file system repair worked this time.

When this keeps happening it only seems to affect one folder which is the "Movies" folder for plex. I have other media I've added over the last few weeks and its all still there.

So, I have had some additional issues here. I took @Squid suggestion and tried easeus to recover some of my missing files. While this didn't work exactly how I pictured it allowed me to see what files where there and I redownloaded them. Everything has been fine for a few days then yesterday I had a power outage after the power was restored I restarted the server to find all of my files since this original issue are again gone! It seems for some reason disk names (SDX) have all changed or at least been reordered in the list and I am now getting an Unmountable error on one. Any help again would be appreciated.

Yeah that's another reason I would think it was unlikely to have been formatted since there would be a warning message. Is there anyway I can tell if maybe another docker container or something moved the files for some reason. I am relatively new to Unraid so besides just looking through everything with MC I'm not sure how to find them if they are there.

Also I have found this older diagnostic file. I did have access to the movies yesterday so I know this is something that has had to have happened overnight so I'm not sure how much help this file will be. tower-diagnostics-20220101-0840.zip

Unlikely but not impossible that they became unmoutable and someone formatted them as another human also has access to server. If they have been formatted is there a disk recovery tool or app that can be used inside of Unraid?

@JonathanMI don't think any of that applies to me. @trurlMy apologies I didn't realize it wasn't started. I have posted a new diagnostic file. Thanks! tower-diagnostics-20220106-1205.zip

I woke up this morning to and went to open plex shortly realizing that most of my movies where missing. After digging around for a bit I have noticed that 2 of my 6 data disks do not have any directories listed (where I am assuming the "Media" directory should be located like on the rest of my disks). The 2 disks in question do show being almost full as far as space but even when looking in the disks with MC I am not showing any files/folders. Reboot has not corrected the issue. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Diagnostics ran and attached. tower-diagnostics-20220106-0958.zip
