May 20, 20215 yr Dear Community, i´ve got 2 12TB Parity Drives. One Parity drive lost power and became faulty / out of sync. So i´ve rebuild the parity on the drive and checked the parity again. now it say that the parity got "some" errors. The checkbox "write corrections to parity" was checked. my diagnostics file is attached. Thank you! best regards schnub bronas-diagnostics-20210520-1325.zip
May 20, 20215 yr Community Expert Btrfs is also detecting data corruption on the cache pool, you should run memtest (and a scrub on cache).

May 20, 20215 yr Community Expert Look in the syslog, it will identify the corrupt file then delete/restore form backups, or it will reference metadata if that's what corrupt.
May 20, 20215 yr Author Ok so now, the corrupted file on the cache is gone. But the parity check should have wrote the corrections to the array (not the cache array), am i correct? Is there a place where i can see that the parity drives are all fine now?

Correct, but the fact that there was corruption on cache and sync errors points to a hardware issue, hence why I recommended running memtest, you can also run another check, if it finds more errors there's still a problem.
July 6, 20214 yr Author I´ve sorted that issue out. It was a faulty cache drive. This can now be closed. Thanks !
