ilovejedd Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 My server seems to have frozen after a power failure (I really need to change the battery on the UPS). I could ping the IP address but the shares are inaccessible as well as the web admin page. I also couldn't telnet into the machine and it seems to have hanged when I tried to log in locally to the machine. The HDD activity lights are all blinking so I'm thinking it's probably doing a parity check so I'm a bit hesitant to just turn off the machine. Still using unRAID 4.3.3 (haven't gotten around to upgrading yet as the server is on 24/7). Any thoughts? Should I just restart it or should I try again once parity check finishes (probably in 6 hours or so)? Thanks! Quote Link to comment
dgaschk Posted March 18, 2011 Share Posted March 18, 2011 It should be accessible and shares should be online during a parity check. It might be replaying the file system journals. How long has it been unavailable? Quote Link to comment

How long has it been unavailable? No idea when exactly. It was accessible and doing a parity check around 5- to 6-ish when I started the machine but when I tried to check on the progress and drive temps around 7, it was already inaccessible. Waited for the HDD activity lights to finish blinking but still nada. I had to hold the power button because it wouldn't shut down and the console just hanged. No prompt or anything after I tried to log in as root. I've rebooted the machine and it's doing a parity check now. Hopefully, it proceeds normally this time. Ugh, I really need to change the UPS...

ilovejedd Posted March 18, 2011 Author Share Posted March 18, 2011 Restart seems to have fixed it. It just finished parity check and it didn't find any errors. Quote Link to comment
