Help with Maintenance mode

[miked5468]

Am I not able to go into Maintenance mode because I am running a trial copy?  I am trying to fix an xfs file system corruption

 

thanks Mike

The screenshot shows the array started, you must select maintenance before you start the array. Hit the stop button, and see.

I thought you were repairing a filesystem. Now you say you are clearing disk1?

[miked5468]

sorry im really new at this.....i had 2 drives dump on me? disk1 and disk2 to be honest idk why that happened but they hold all of my data....just trying to get this data back....so idk if i should have been clearing or repairing....its ok if i lost the data because its not personal.  Just time consuming

Clearing usually means writing zeros to the entire disk. This is often done with preclear plugin or docker. Don't know if that is what you mean or not, but it isn't any way to recover data.

For future reference when UNRAID indicates issues with a disk:

 

1. STOP all activity on the server

2. Post a full diagnostics (Tools -> Diagnostics) zip file here with an explanation of the situation

3. WAIT until someone responds with instructions

3a. KEEP waiting until someone responds - general tinkering tends to lead to data loss

4. Follow them TO THE LETTER
