Dartanis Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 (edited) Posting logs though this is after a fresh reboot so might not be helpful, performed the reboot to make sure there wasn't some cabling issue. Not sure if the logs show disk names but currently having issues with Disk 9 (sde - 7G52) and Disk 7 (sdi - 3ZE6). Was spinning up all disks for a parity check when Disk 9 didn't come back online, was reporting disabled so tinkered a bit trying to get it back up. After a disk swapping around Disk 7 is now also showing the same thing. Both showed Unmountable: not mounted and seemed to have corrupted their file systems (no data on them, was spun down the past few weeks) so let it re-format to see if that resolved the error but now they can see their disk usage and file system but still can't be brought back from Disabled status. Looked around for similar issues but mostly found either errors from the disk causing the issue. No data on these disks so wiping/rebuilding would be fine too if that's what's necessary since I was going to run a parity check today anyways. plant-diagnostics-20210313-1222.zip Edited March 13, 2021 by Dartanis Quote Link to comment
itimpi Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Did you intend to discard the data on the disks when you formatted them (as that is the effect of a format). If the disks were being ‘emulated’ by using parity then as the disks were disabled the format operation would have done it to the ‘emulated’ drive, not the physical one. the correct way to handle unmountable disks is covered here in the online documentation accessible via the ‘Manual’ link at the bottom of the unRaid GUI. Chances are that would have recovered any data on them. once a disk is marked as disabled then the only way to clear that state is to rebuild the drive. If you want to do it on top of the current of themselves then that is documented here. It is quite possible, though, that the physical disks have their data intact if you want to try and recover it so you may not want to rush into the rebuild. Quote Link to comment
Dartanis Posted March 13, 2021 Author Share Posted March 13, 2021 The drives themselves held 0 data so wasn't worried about recovering them. Was just wondering if there was a way around the disabled aside from the full rebuild since didn't want to wait for 16 hours to find out it was still disabled for some other reason. Thank you for the links, I have begun the rebuild after re-adding the drives after removing them from the pool. Quote Link to comment
