Markyb0y Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 current server has been up and running for over 3 years without any major issues. Currently running 6.9.1 have recently moved and this means new internet provider etc so new IP adresses required. also just before the move had a couple of power cuts. thought my server was completely screwed when I first tried starting it up as couldnt even boot properly, however after removing my 2 LSI 9201-8i SAS Connectors as all lights were dead and reconnecting 9 drives to the server via SATA cables all of which are being seen in BIOS, I find that UNRAID will not boot successfully. found a few older posts relating to the "dev/disk/by-label/UNRAID not found!" and the general concensus was that the USB was screwed and needed to be reinstalled. I have copied the entire contents of the USB drive before continuing. rebuilt the USB using the Limetech USB Creator, 6.9.1, copied my config folder back to it and booted up, I am still seeing the "dev/disk/by-label/UNRAID not found!" error, this of course means that I dont get any networking created so I am limited to the GUI locally. any suggestions on what else I can do to get back on my feet again? thanks in advance for any assistance Quote Link to comment
SimonF Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Sounds like you flash volume name is incorrect. What do you get from. ls -l /dev/disk/by-label e.g. this is from my system. lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Apr 26 07:51 New\\x20Volume -> ../../sdb1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Apr 26 07:51 UNRAID -> ../../sdd1 Quote Link to comment
Markyb0y Posted April 26, 2021 Author Share Posted April 26, 2021 total 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Apr 26 12:26 UNRAID -> ../../sda1 Quote Link to comment
SimonF Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 That looks correct. Are you binding any devices to VFIO? PCIe IDs may of changed and now picking up the USB controller is the only other thing I can think of. Quote Link to comment
Markyb0y Posted April 26, 2021 Author Share Posted April 26, 2021 not intentionally bindng anything, how can I see? if you are referring to network port binding then I do have 5 ports on my motherboard, though I have only ever used 1 its been so long since I have had any issues I have no idea where to look Quote Link to comment
SimonF Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 If you click on the flash drive from the main tab it may be in the syslinx config. something like vfio-pci.ids=xxxx:xxxx But normally would only be used if you are say passing GPU to a VM or similar. Or it may be in a file on the boot drive in config dir. root@unraid:/boot/config# cat vfio-pci.cfg BIND=83:00.0 83:00.1 83:00.2 83:00.3 Quote Link to comment

Squid Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Assuming its named correctly (UNRAID all in caps), then try a different USB controller (ie: a different port, but not the one above or below what you're using) Quote Link to comment
Markyb0y Posted April 27, 2021 Author Share Posted April 27, 2021 it was indeed named correctly, today I have tried using the USB in a seperate port as suggested and it worked as if there was never an issue. any idea what would have caused this? is it now a forever broken port? regardless thanks for taking the time to look through my logs and provide the assistance you always have. such a great community Quote Link to comment
