So I was telnet to my unraid server while it is running a preclear on a drive.  I forgot to run screen and now the windows server I was telneting from is crapping the bed and I can't seem to get it back to normal.  Is there anyway to grab the session from another telnet session?

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thanks!

I don't think so. Also the preclear most probably was terminated.

The preclear is still running. I can see the disk activity light and the process telnet is still running on the windows machine.

Is there any file I can look for that the preclear script might right to see the results?!

Look in the /tmp directory.  Preclear writes temporary files there.

Yeah I see files.  I also ran a ps -a and I see DD running and preclear.sh.  I just need to know when it is done and its results.

You mean dd? Usually DD stands for Data Domain :-)

Wait some 24-48 hours and then take a look again in /tmp, you should see the final file and also there shouldn't be any more dd processes in the ps -a output.

Yeah Joe is helping me out in the preclear.sh script thread.  I think dd is a disk utility that he uses.  It is going well I think.  I just hope it all works in the end.  Painful at 30 hours!
