Multiple errors on < 1yo SeaGate 8TB HDD since 6.9 upgrade

Featured Replies

Hello all,

Today I saw on my server in the /Main tab 896 errors on one of my hard drives. I narrowed down these errors to 01h30 on the 03/03/2021.
1h30 of the first Wednesday of the month is when I run my monthly parity check, so it was during the start of the parity check that the errors popped up.

The errors concern disk 1. In the logs this repeats multiple times :

The device is relatively new, less than a year old. It's a 8TB Seagate Ironwolf drive. I set an extended SMART test to run, seems to be stuck at 10% for the last 2h or so.

I attached the logs to this post.
 

Any help is appreciated,
Regards,
George.

There are knwon issues with LSI + 8TB Ironwolf (possibly other capacities also), one workaround is to use the onboard SATA ports for those, until there's a new LSI driver.

Ty for the answer, is this to do with the 6.9 update? If so I'll probably just roll back, my unraid server is a good 10h drive away and to switch the ports would be a pain.

Yes, it started with the v6.9-rcs, likely due to a newer LSI driver.

Thanks. Quick question, is this more of a "technical" error or is there an actual chance of data loss?

  • Community Expert

It's disabling disks for some users, so it can cause data loss.

  • Author

Can confirm, it disabled one of my disks today.
Reverted back to 6.8.3 and rebuilding parity now.

Hopefully this will be fixed pretty soon, I really needed those multiple pools :(

Hi @JorgeB - do you know of a kernel bug report related to this?

Nope, just that there were a handful of cases reported, IIRC always with the ST8000VN004 model, though other capacities might have the same problem, and always fixed by downgrading to v6.8 or moving those disks to a different controller.

Sorry for the necro thread... Is this still an issue in current versions?

I just picked one up and it promptly disabled disks and flagged others as unmountable.
Assuming I'm experiencing something similar; these drives were AOK prior and my WD drives are perfectly happy post-migration.

I'm on 6.12 - Do I go back to 6.8 or forward to 7.x?

That model is not affected, so it's unrelated, recommend starting a new thread and posting the diagnostics.
