    SSD Trim - Critical Target Error & e-mail notification error

    in General Support

    Posted · Edited by cholzer

    This issue is definitely caused/related to the SSD Trim plugin as it happened again today right after the plugin was executed.

    Also the e-mail notification failed again as the plugin wants to notify 'root' ? Instead of sending an e-mail to the address that is in the notification configuration. I doubt that I could even add an e-mail address to the root user? At least I don't see such a field. :-/

    SSD Trim - Critical Target Error & e-mail notification error

    My concern isn't with the Mover entries, but the bad sector after the mover finished.

    I have just checked my Schedules and noticed that the Mover and SSD Trim are executed at the same time.
    I have now changed the SSD trim Schedule to a later point so that these 2 should not collide anymore (even though it seems that they were not executed at the same time).

     

    But when I read the log correctly then it seems to say that there is a bad sector on the cache SSD? :-/

    Not sure about the error itself (also always post the complete diagnostics), but your system share is still on the array and can't be moved while in use, since you have a cache device do this:

     

    -stop docker service

    -stop VM service

    -run the mover

    -when done restart docker and VM services.

     

    Guess I need to enable VT-x in the bios as I can't access the "VM Manager" in the settings to turn of the service. Only get a warning that VT-x is not enabled/present.

    Hey! I just found this error in the log today. 

    Nov 24 05:01:10 NAS kernel: blk_update_request: critical target error, dev sdc, sector 230727725

    I am not sure what it means, but seems related to the "Dynamix SSD TRIM" pkugin?
    All drives (data, parity, cache) have been pre-cleared before they were added to the array.

     

    I also don't know why sending the alert email failed because when I test the email notification then it works

    Full log attached.

    You can just copy your flash share, that's the flash drive, best to do it with the array stopped though.

     

    1. Stopped the array
    2. copied the contents of the /flash share
    3. created a zip and stored it on my backup drive & cloud

    So should my current USB flash drive die, then I would create a new one with the tool and then copy back the contents of my backup and overwrite all files on the new USB flash drive, right?

    I want to thank all of you for your help on my journey to get unRAID up and running! Your support was awesome! =)

     

    All my files are on the array, parity has been created, cache disk is up and running, mover is working, email notifications are working, UPS connected and working, ...... I think I am done! :D

     

    Only thing left to do is make a backup of my unRAID config. Guess best practice is to:

    1. shut the unRAID system down
    2. plug the USB flash drive into my PC
    3. and create an ISO of that USB flash drive? :)

    Typically when you create an array you choose a drive to be your parity drive, unRAID then creates parity on this drive and that can take hours.

    Thanks your your reply!

     

    I might be wrong (most likely), but I thought that when I preclear the drives then parity creation is much faster when I create the array. Or is that only when I add a new drive to an existing array?

    I am currently building my first unRAID system and I need a little help with what is the best practice to move my data to that new NAS system :)

     

    So right now I've got the following drives in the system which are getting pre cleared at the moment
    1x 120GB SSD

    3x Seagate Iron Wolf 6TB

     

    All drives are connected to my Dell Perc H310 (LSI 9240-8i crossflashed to 9211-8i IT-Mode) - should I connect the SSD to a SATA port of my mainboard instead since it's going to be my cache drive?

     

    Now, my plan is to setup the unRAID array and then move my data from the old NAS to unRAID.
    After I moved my data to unRAID I want to move my 2x 6TB drives from the old NAS to unRAID.

     

    So how should I do that? :)

     

    Here is what I though I should do (please correct me if I am wrong):

    1. wait for the preclear to finish
    2. create a new array in unRAID
    3. setup shares etc. in unRAID
    4. move files from my old NAS to unRAID
    5. install the old HDDs in my unRAID box and preclear them
    6. add the old HDDs to the unRAID array
    7. add the SSD as cache to the unRAID array (I am not sure if I should to that before I start moving data to the array or if I should do that last!?)
       

    Thanks in advance! :)
