did you find a solution to this bug? i am experiencing the same thing. It only seems to happen when using the domain name. but this is an issue for me as i travel a lot.

Thank you, That worked. Now disk 1 is constantly throwing CRC errors. Im gonna try to reseat it and put it into my JBOD on a different power supply etc. If this doesnt work. How do a move forward with 2 disks needing a rebuild and disk 1 being a jerk.

I have since stopped the rebuild and restarted. here are the diagnostics after restarting after what happened above. tower-diagnostics-20230331-1426.zip

Ok so i got to the step where i stop the array unassigned the disks, then restart the array in normal mode (it says Disks missing please replace asap). I stop the array reassigned them. and now its doing a data rebuild and disk 1 is immediately throwing errors. and its saying disk 5 and 14 are unmountable file system or no file system. when i start in maintenance mode i am no longer able to check the file system on these disks.

Ok i would be interested in this information. (the re-enable of disk 1) If disks were to keep dropping could i just remove and replace said disks loose a lot of data and keep going? I really appreciate your help with this. Let me know if there is a link i can use to buy you a beer.

here is the diagnostics of 3 emulated disks. 1 5 14 1 is a red X 5 and 14 each have the Triangle exclamation point. In this case what do i do. Data preservation on these disks isn't crucial (all replaceable data) tower-diagnostics-20230331-1238.zip

ok so basically disk 1 has become unmountable now. So currently i have disk 1 - 5 - 14 down. I started the array it started the rebuild process and now im not able to access my webgui. I shut down the server blind and will post new diagonostics IF anyone needs to shut down their server blind 1 Plug in a keyboard 2 put in root (enter) password (enter) 3 enter command "shutdown -h now"

in this scenario, if im unable to rebuild because of another disk failing. is the array toast? i have 2 parity drives. Should i run the sync (data rebuild) in maintenance mode?

Ok this makes sense. During rebuild a random disk will start throwing read errors and will completely kibosh the rebuild process. first it was disk 8 now its disk 1.

hmmmm disk 8 seems to be having read/write errors on data rebuild. could just be a power issue. should i let the rebuild run its course and figure out disk 8 afterwards? tower-diagnostics-20230330-1505.zip

Yeah, Its asking for -L repair on the disk (5) im doing so now. Should i do the same for disk 14 if it asks for the -L repair. Once i finish this i should reboot or just start array and let it rebuild?

hi, I have done so and the parity seems ok now. Though disk 8 is now having read errors. i did not touch this disk. This must be coming from wire/card. I will investigate this further and post a new diagonostic. It has started rebuilding disk 5 and 14. Should i allow this? even tho they are in an 'unmountable' state? tower-diagnostics-20230330-1351.zip

I should add it is currently rebuilding right now.

Hi guys, This morning my server lost power. I believe the UPS saved it and put it into a safe shutdown. The same cant be said for the JBOD attached to my unraid server. Basically i have 2 drives that needed i file system repair which i did and restarted the array. The 2nd parity drive started to show errors I am not amazing at unraid and fixing disk errors etc. as you can see from my post history. But i do have a basic understanding I have attached my diagnostics. if anyone can chime in as to what i should do next it would be appreciated tower-diagnostics-20230330-1317.zip

Ok when doing new config do I “preserve any current assignments” ? again I really appreciate your help

I will only have one parity drive. Since one of my parity drives is 'missing/dead' Also I am still having the original problem of the Red X on drive 1 and 9, Both are present before i start the array. Can these also be repaired? or will they be emulated from the one pairty?

can you tell me how to do that?

Ok. I’m gonna test the drives one last time on a driver reader that I bought from Amazon. From there I will ask you how to do the new config. I want to say I appreciate everything and everyone in this forum. It’s really great how you guys help us newbs

Yes I have tried that. I have 2 chassis and a lot of spare external hba and internal hba. so I have tried the disks across 2 chassis with the same problems on the same disks. more disks show up on my spare chassis so it has lead me to believe it is a backplane problem with the norco 4024 chassis.

Ok as it seems the drives are no longer good. I think my backplane might have fried them. In this case with loosing so many disks at once, Inc a parity. Is it just a start over scenario? (no i dont have a back up, This was mainly a media server with all replaceable content.)

can i safely plug them into my windows gaming pc? would i just check in the bios? sorry im fairly new, but do understand most concepts and instrucitons.

Ok as of today I have replaced all sas cables and have tried to use different power supplies. My problem has progressed. Since changing out all the wiring my chassis (norco 4224) isn’t recognizing a lot of disk. I have swapped hba to test that. have swapped sas expanders to check that have hooked the hba direct to each back plane to test. I even have a spare chassis (norco 4220) And still some drives don’t show up. let me know if I should post diagnostics. Tho I can’t start my array.

ok, should i try a repair of disk 8 and 10? i also have replacement drives on standby

I tried to do it from the GUI, tho before i had tried it from the command line. Let me know a command to try and i will give it a shot.

Diagnostics posted, the emulated disks are unmountable yes. tower-diagnostics-20210902-0751.zip
