Have done that already. Will try again though

Just an update on this error message. The server is working perfectly but the following messages appear every 5 minutes in the log: Dec 25 14:40:06 PCServer kernel: Buffer I/O error on dev sdb1, logical block 9959896, async page read Dec 25 14:45:06 PCServer ntfs-3g[10525]: ntfs_attr_pread_i: ntfs_pread failed: Input/output error Dec 25 14:45:06 PCServer ntfs-3g[10525]: Failed to read vcn 0x0 from inode 5: Input/output error (Exactly the same three lines of error that occurred on Christmas Day, as today). As per the advice from JorgeB, I checked the disks but I don't have a disk assigned as sdb in the array or as an unassigned disk. I have an external disk via a usb enclosure separate to the array which is used to hold security camera footage from Blue Iris which runs as a Windows VM. That is also working perfectly. If anything this is more of an irritation to know what it is! Any help is greatly appreciated.

Happy Christmas everyone. Just a quick post. My server seemed to stop Plex and various other dockers early on Christmas morning and I rebooted and it all seemed to work ok. Plex now works. However, looking at the logs I get the following errors: Dec 25 14:40:06 PCServer kernel: Buffer I/O error on dev sdb1, logical block 9959896, async page read Dec 25 14:45:06 PCServer ntfs-3g[10525]: ntfs_attr_pread_i: ntfs_pread failed: Input/output error Dec 25 14:45:06 PCServer ntfs-3g[10525]: Failed to read vcn 0x0 from inode 5: Input/output error which repeats every few minutes. I attach the logs file also to this post. PCServer is the name of the unRAID server. I have checked all disks, cache disks and m2 drives and nothing is showing any errors. I have replaced cache drives before this this error seems to be very different. I wondered if it was the USB stick but again that seems ok and the system boots fine. I am now wondering if it's maybe a Windows VM? Can anyone point me in the right direction? Many thanks for any help. pcserver-syslog-20221225-1444.zip

Sorted! I added the new drive again and now it works. As you said a bug. So for reference, once you add the larger drive, stop the array, unassign it from the pool, let the balance run and you have one drive in the pool. Stop the array, add new drive back in again and hey presto, it works. Thanks ever so much for your help.

Many thanks for your help. I will give it a go, The new disk is in the array as an unassigned device, so will see it what happens. Will report back the results and hopefully this thread will be closed. Only having 480Gb is not a problem. My VM's and downloads and transcode stuff are on two separate NVME drives in their own separate pools. Appreciate your time.

Thanks for your help. As you suggested I have removed the new SSD and it's now as an unassigned device. Cache pool has rebalanced and dockers are working fine. Just a single cache drive currently. New diagnostics attached. To replaced the old cache drive I : Stopped the docker se4rvice. Stopped the array Removed the 'defective' SSD from the cache pool Shut down server Removed old drive and put in the new 500gb drive. Restarted the server. Assigned the new SSD to the cache pool Start server Cache pool rebalanced and we end up with my initial problem as per the post. Thanks for any help you can give. pcserver-diagnostics-20210911-1159.zip

I have had a cache pool of two SSD in raid 1 running with no issues. In the last two weeks I have noticed many errors in the main log with one of the SSD's. I decided to buy a new SSD and replace it. The cache pool drives have been 500GB. Drive replaced with no problems, but..... The new drive was purchased as 500GB as per the original drive, the original 'good' drive still in the cache' reports 480GB (sdf). I have tried to put this in raid 1 but nothing happens. Is this because that unRAID thinks the two drives are not of the same capacity? I suspect it is, which is a nuisance as I purchased 500GB drives to match. Have seen log file with : Sep 11 10:53:02 PCServer ool www[7241]: /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix/scripts/btrfs_balance 'start' '/mnt/cache' '-dconvert=raid1,soft -mconvert=raid1,soft' Sep 11 10:53:02 PCServer kernel: BTRFS error (device sdf1): balance: invalid convert data profile raid1 Full diagnostics file attached. Is there a work around for this? pcserver-diagnostics-20210911-1053.zip

Have done an extended smart test and no errors found

I checked all the connections and made sure they were all ok. Rebooted server and can do a SMART test now. Diagnostics attached. Also screenshot of the disk status and I think this disk is failing. pcserver-diagnostics-20210907-1823.zip

I have a cache pool made up of two SSD 480gb SSD drives in a raid 1. Over the last few days I have noticed that my trim cron job has errored. Just looked at the server and the log file is nearly full. It is full of entries such as : Sep 6 21:01:19 PCServer kernel: sd 10:0:0:0: [sdi] tag#28 UNKNOWN(0x2003) Result: hostbyte=0x04 driverbyte=0x00 cmd_age=0s Sep 6 21:01:19 PCServer kernel: sd 10:0:0:0: [sdi] tag#28 CDB: opcode=0x2a 2a 00 11 52 0f 00 00 00 80 00 Sep 6 21:01:19 PCServer kernel: blk_update_request: I/O error, dev sdi, sector 290590464 op 0x1:(WRITE) flags 0x1800 phys_seg 16 prio class 0 Sep 6 21:01:19 PCServer kernel: BTRFS warning (device sdf1): lost page write due to IO error on /dev/sdi1 (-5) Sep 6 21:01:19 PCServer kernel: BTRFS warning (device sdf1): lost page write due to IO error on /dev/sdi1 (-5) Sep 6 21:01:19 PCServer kernel: BTRFS warning (device sdf1): lost page write due to IO error on /dev/sdi1 (-5) Sep 6 21:01:19 PCServer kernel: BTRFS error (device sdf1): error writing primary super block to device 2 Sep 6 21:01:24 PCServer kernel: scsi_io_completion_action: 53 callbacks suppressed Sep 6 21:01:24 PCServer kernel: sd 10:0:0:0: [sdi] tag#4 UNKNOWN(0x2003) Result: hostbyte=0x04 driverbyte=0x00 cmd_age=0s Sep 6 21:01:24 PCServer kernel: sd 10:0:0:0: [sdi] tag#4 CDB: opcode=0x2a 2a 00 00 12 9c 88 00 00 18 00 Sep 6 21:01:24 PCServer kernel: print_req_error: 54 callbacks suppressed Sep 6 21:01:24 PCServer kernel: blk_update_request: I/O error, dev sdi, sector 1219720 op 0x1:(WRITE) flags 0x0 phys_seg 3 prio class 0 I have a feeling that the second cache drive is failing? I can not also undertake a smart report. I would say the drive is failing or has failed? Unraid is not showing any errors in the 'Main tab'. The drive in question has a lot more reads and writes. As part of a cache pool, I should be able to stop the array. Unassign the drive, power down the server, install new SSD, assign it and it should rebuild? Any help or advice is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the post. The NVME was formatted with version 6.9 so maybe it will keep the data when I assign it to the drive pool? It will be the only one in the pool, so that should also not complicate anything. The new NVME will be in a separate pool and it will be brand new so no issues with losing data there.

I have just watched the latest @SpaceInvaderOne video on drive pools and managing them. My server is two years old and I have two ssd's in raid 1 for my docker containers which I will leave well alone. I also have an NVME drive mounted as an unassigned device which has my Windows VM running and it works really well. Now with unRaid 6.9 I am thinking of creating some drive pools. I have got another NVME drive coming which I will install and create a drive pool on that one device and use it for files downloaded etc. That's easy to setup. However, I was thinking of creating another drive pool with the original nvme for VM's. If I move the current unassigned devices nvme drive into this new pool, it will wipe the drive if I am correct? What is the best way to retain the VM data held on this current installed nvme drive and move it all to the new drive pool? I just want to ensure I use the best (and easiest) procedure to minimise any problems along the way and thought the community would have the best ideas. Thanks for any help.

Just a quick shout out for for some guidance. I used the @SpaceInvaderOne video to setup a Minecraft server and also used Cloudflare. Worked a treat. Ran for a week or so. Then had an update for Binhex's container (great work on all your containers, use them for everything!) and it updated with no errors but then the minecraft server was not available on the local network or via the internet. When you connect to the WebUI for the container (user name and password work fine) you get the following message in the window: "There is no screen to be attached matching minecraft." and that's it. Previously the WebUI showed all the data for the minecraft server, who connected, what the world was doing, etc. There was another container update and I had the glibc error which I corrected with the post in this thread and that's all fixed so no problems there. However, I still get the console window error and the minecraft server not being able to connect. The container starts and runs, had a look through logs and couldn't see anything obvious. Log posted below. Any help is greatly appreciated (username and password deleted from logs).

Success! I have installed the VM. I changed the mount point as you pointed out and it works. Thank you to everyone who has helped, it is really appreciated. unRaid is not just a great system, the community is superb!
