I just noticed that my Parity 2 disk is reporting errors. I am not sure when those popped up as the parity was just checked and passed. What do I make of these and how to correct them?

 

Thanks.

I assume you mean nonzero in the Errors column on Main? Since it hasn't been disabled nothing to correct but I notice no SMART tests have been run on that disk.

 

Haven't found these errors in your syslog yet because it is spammed with these:

Aug  1 15:04:04 Tower rpcbind[18066]: connect from 192.168.1.167 to getport/addr(mountd)
Aug  1 15:04:04 Tower rpc.mountd[8077]: Bad path in mount request from 192.168.1.167: "Amcrest"

Any idea what that is about?

OK, I found them back on Jul 18.

 

Run an extended SMART test on that disk.

I am running extended test under Fix Common Problems right now. It has been for the last 45 minutes. I'll post the results as soon as it finishes, although I have no idea how long it may take. I'm also running the extended SMART test on that disk.

 

And, yes, the errors were in the Main page, and I got alerted to them because Fix Common Problems also reported them.

 

Thanks,

He meant a SMART for the disk.

From Main, click the disk name and scroll down to find the button to run the extended SMART test on that drive.

 

Might take a few hours depending on the drive size.

So, the extended Smart test reported - completed without errors. However, I see errors in the log. What do I do next about the reported errors? Do I just ignore them? Do I need to re-run parity check?

 

Thanks,

 

Lev

Disk is OK for now, keep monitoring.

You can reset the error counts on Main using the Clear Stats button in Array Operations. Or reboot.

Be sure to setup Notifications to alert you immediately by email or other agent as soon as a problem is detected. Probably for these errors that didn't really disable anything you would get alerted by the daily status report or Fix Common Problems.

OK. Sounds good. I'll keep an eye on this drive. Appreciate your help!
