I took your advice and am running ddrescue on disk7 via an Ubuntu live disk. The rescue is moving at full speed and no errors yet. Everything's going smoothly so far, fingers crossed 🙏

Below is my current Unraid setup. As you can see, my Disk 7 is dead. That happened a few days ago. While researching which drive to buy and replace it with, I go to restart my server and my array is stuck on "Mounting disks...". Looking at the logs I can see the parity drive (sdd) is failing. As far as I know, the parity drive within Unraid does not have a file system, so I cannot attempt software repairs on it (fsck, xfs_repair, etc). I double-checked the cabling and plugged into a different slot, but still no beans. What options do I have besides restoring what I can from backup and accepting some data loss from the ~4TB I had on Disk7? Also, why does my main page say Disk1 is Mounting, but the logs show that the Parity drive is the one stuck. bug? Any help greatly appreciated. europe-syslog-20240417-2312.zip europe-diagnostics-20240417-1811.zip

I was flipping back and forth while troubleshooting, same issue with it off. No particular reason, theres no guidance in the docker settings page so I picked 10% of my cache pool which seemed reasonable I'll look into that thanks, assumed it was a simple drive failure. Based on the docs you provided it looks like I'm clear to continue with what I was planning. Thanks

Hey everyone, so my setup is currently 8 drives in Array, and 3 drives in Cache. 1 of the drives is failing and throwing a bunch of btrfs errors. Running a scrub gives hundreds of uncorrectable errors. I set all shares to Move Cache -> Array and started the mover. Unfortunately after running it, 3 files persisted, a plex file (unimportant), a sonarr file (uninmportant), and my docker.img file (100GB). As such my docker service will not start. I tried copying manually in Midnight Commander but it fails <10% through with error "Cannot read source file "path/file" Input/output error (5)", then when I skip it says "Incomplete file was retrieved". I read somewhere that btrfs blocks the transfer of corrupted files maybe that's what's going on idk. So anyway my plan is to: 1. Backup contents of cache pool to my desktop PC (done) 2. Use the mover to move all cache pool data to Array (done) 3. Manually delete any leftover files in cache pool 4. Replace drive physically 5. Start array with new config including new drive 6. Use the mover to move all intended data back to cache pool 7. Create a new docker image file 8. Recreate all my previous docker containers My concern is mainly with steps 3,7,8, will I lose all my docker configs/settings if I do this? Like, will I have to start my Plex server over and redo all my arr profiles? Haven't really had any problems with Unraid until now so just wanted someone to look over what I'm doing before I screw it up. Hope I gave enough info feel free to ask for more. If you're asking why I don't restore from backup: I'm switching cloud providers right now, very unlucky, THANKS IN ADVANCE europe-diagnostics-20240103-1926.zip

Also just noticed the appdata and France shares have a different amount of free space than the rest. Is that a clue? Inside the appdata folder:

Hello, I'm trying to upgrade my single cache drive to a bigger size. I'm tried to move all cache data onto array with the following settings - Docker - disabled, VMs - disabled, Wireguard VPN - disabled, All Shares - Cache:Yes. My shares are mounted on my desktop and laptop. Both are shut down completely. I'm trying this on my phone. I ran the mover and it got mostly everything except for my appdata folder and a movie on my share (idc about this ill just delete it). The appdata folder has some important (i think) files on there so I don't want to delete or move it willy nilly. Any help to get these files off would be appreciated. Thank you.
