So for some reason I logged back in to my box and I only have two out of three Screen sessions and I initiated them all via telnet so none on console. I ran the -t on the drive I don't see in my other existing sessions and it says precleared however I don't have a report. So what should I do next. Results below: Pre-Clear unRAID Disk /dev/sda ################################################################## 1.13 Device Model: ST3000DM001-9YN166 Serial Number: W1F0RSQZ Firmware Version: CC4B User Capacity: 3,000,592,982,016 bytes Disk /dev/sda: 3000.5 GB, 3000592982016 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 364801 cylinders, total 5860533168 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x00000000 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 1 4294967295 2147483647+ 0 Empty Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary. ######################################################################## ========================================================================1.13 == == DISK /dev/sda IS PRECLEARED with a GPT Protective MBR == ============================================================================ Thanks!

So when everything can go wrong it does! My "spare" unraid server hasn't had to reboot in forever and now I have three new 3TB drives at least 22 hours in to the preclear when I come back home and the UPS was out. My question is how if any way can I determine if the preclear was completed and completed satisfactorily if it did finish. Help with this would be appreciated and save me another day! Thanks, Neil

I just ran pre-clear on two of my drives on my secondary server. they both completed and the one stayed in that server and when I added it to unraid it said it needed to format. The other drive I pulled and moved to my main server and when I added it it said it needed to be cleared?! I am running 1.11 of the script on 4.7 version of unraid. I started the clear so I am sure I screwed something up but I was wondering what could have gone wrong? "Start will record the new disk information and bring the expanded array on-line. All new disks which have not been factory-erased will be cleared first; and, the array will be available after the clear completes. This process takes time, but the array remains protected at all times. Caution: any data on the new disk(s) will be erased! If you want to preserve the data on the new disk(s), reset the array configuration and rebuild parity instead."

When I run it the first time I Get the .7 seconds. cache_dirs -F -v -w -B -i "Movies" "Recordings" Executing find /mnt/disk1/Movies -noleaf Executing find /mnt/disk2/Movies -noleaf Executing find /mnt/disk3/Movies -noleaf Executing find /mnt/disk4/Movies -noleaf Executing find /mnt/disk5/Movies -noleaf Executing find /mnt/disk6/Movies -noleaf Executing find /mnt/disk7/Movies -noleaf Executing find /mnt/cache/Movies -noleaf Executed find in 0.073367 seconds, weighted avg=0.073367 seconds, now sleeping 5 seconds I have green drives (i.e. Not fast drives0 and they are all spun down so I think something is wrong here? Thanks, Neil

Thanks. This is what I see now: Executing find /mnt/disk1/Movies -noleaf Executing find /mnt/disk2/Movies -noleaf Executing find /mnt/disk3/Movies -noleaf Executing find /mnt/disk4/Movies -noleaf Executing find /mnt/disk5/Movies -noleaf Executing find /mnt/disk6/Movies -noleaf Executing find /mnt/disk7/Movies -noleaf Executing find /mnt/cache/Movies -noleaf Executed find in 0.073426 seconds, weighted avg=0.073422 seconds, now sleeping 3 seconds Is that normal and a good sign? Thanks, Neil

nope... looks to me like it stopped responding. does it respond to a smartctl report? It could be the disk, the cable, the power, the backplane/drive tray. We've seen them all. It has not been successfully pre-cleared. Trust me. try preclear_disk.sh -t /dev/sdi and see what it says. Only takes a few seconds to test if it has a pre-clear signature. Joe L. When I attempted to preclear the drive another time I would get disconnected! I ended up rebooting the machine again. I will check it out. The one drive just doesn't show up so that drive is definitely bad. I ran that command on these two WD drives but they were previously used on another installation. I ran the preclear and I don't know the results but when I ran that command I got the response: == == DISK /dev/sdi IS PRECLEARED with a starting sector of 64 == I guess how do I check to make sure the drives are good? Preclear again? Can I look at the contents of that drive? Thanks! Thanks, Neil

Again same problem. When I re-attached my screen session I see this: Elapsed Time: 14:09:49 ./preclear_disk.sh: line 1079: 0+()%(243201) : syntax error: operand expected (error token is ")%(243201) ") ========================================================================1.11 == ST32000542AS 5XW1CTY2 == Disk /dev/sdi has been successfully precleared == with a starting sector of 64 I can't imagine this is correct because 14 hours for 3 passes isn't possible on a 2TB drive. Any ideas? I am using the latest preclear scripts 1.11 I think. Thanks!
