Hi,

 

I have 2 disks added to a 2nd pool (Unraid 6.9.0-rc1) and I have some issues with it. Last night my server crashed, did not see anything when I connected a monitor so I just hard-rebooted it.

 

Now the thing is, I have a pool for my VirtualMachines and one of that disks looks to be dead, well OK

 

But this is a RAID 1 pool so the data should be ok right?

 

But when I try to access the files (or start a VM):

root@Tower:/mnt/vmpool/domains# ls -alh
/bin/ls: cannot access 'server': Input/output error
/bin/ls: cannot access 'Xpenology': Input/output error
total 16K
drwxrwxrwx 1 nobody users 48 Aug 14 09:47 ./
drwxrwxrwx 1 nobody users 14 Jan  2 04:40 ../
d????????? ? ?      ?      ?            ? Xpenology/
drwxrwxrwx 1 root   root  42 Aug  8 14:00 debiandns/
d????????? ? ?      ?      ?            ? server/
root@Tower:/mnt/vmpool/domains#

 

Did I configure this incorrectly? Shouldn't my data be here? Any ideas? Diagnostics added.

 

edit:

I have not tried to reconnect the disk at this point, also I know this is not the latest Unraid version but I won't execute an upgrade in a problem state

Probably the SSDs, try connecting them in the other controller.

Oh that's interesting, I didn't notices that it had issues with 2 disks. I thought it was only 1 because in the UI only 1 disks is "not installed". But yes if both disks have issues (perhaps the same controller need to check) then I can assume it has trouble accessing my data.

 

I will try to fiddle a bit and report back here.

Well... that was strange:

When I stopped the array only 1 disk was missing the other one was "unassigned".

(They both where not listed in the "choose device" select)

 

But then after replugging them:

Not really sure what happend. They where on the same controller yes, but also other disks where on that controller.

 

So the questions I have left (perhaps for some Unraid employee):

- Why was it listed as 1 disk OK?

- Why was the pool still accessable? But then not everything could be accessed?

 

edit:

Oh and another question: I now notice my pool was converted to non-raid? So why?

Both devices having issues suggest there's some connection/power problem or they could have a compatibility problem with the controller, hence why I suggested trying the other one.

Yeah could be but (yes that is no guarantee) it worked perfectly for the last year, other disks also work fine and now it works again so for now I won't change anything. Mostly I am just confused on what the UI was reporting.

GUI is not great for monitoring pools, see here for more info.

Ah great! I did not know that that was not fully integrated yet. I have now added the script (and yes this pool had errors, reset them now so i know if it still is a problem). Thanks for the tips!
