Cache Unmountable: No File System

[GlennCottam]

Came home today to find out the server can no longer mount the cache drives. All 4 of them that are in the pool.

Booted into safemode, mounted the array, all other disks mount no problem, but the cache disks will not mount, giving the error: Unmountable: No File System.

 

I came across this article:

And attempted to mount the drive under /x, but then got the following error:

mount: /x: can't read superblock on /dev/sdd1.

 

This happens for all 4 drives I attempt to mount.

There is a decent amount of data stored on these drives that I do need back. The drives should be fine, they have not been spitting out any errors the last few weeks, until this happened.

Let me know if you require any more information! Any help is much appricated!

After re-reading the article, I apparently missed the command I was meant to use for 6.10+.
After using the proper command, I was able to mount the SSD's.

I take it from here, I just need to copy the data onto a drive, format the cache pool, and copy the data back?

 

Thanks!

Yes.

I have attempted to re-format the SSD's several times, but I am unable to format the NVME SSD I have installed.

I tried formatting the cache in the configuration it was (all the SSD's in one cache), but decided I would try to seperate the NVME from the pool. I keep getting the error "Unmountable: Wrong or no file system" when I attempt to format the drive.

 

In the syslog, I have the following entries when I attempt to format the drive:

I have attached a more recent diagnostics file.

I can only assume that there is a physical issue with this SSD. I just hope when I pulled the data from the pool, the data on that drive was included.

Those ‘critical medium error’ messages almost certainly mean that the SSD is faulty.

[GlennCottam]

Thats what I was afraid of.
Thank you for the reply, I will see what data I am missing after restoring the data to the other 3 SSD's (hopefully none).

[GlennCottam]

All is good, from what I can tell I was able to pull the data off the SSD.

Took a while to finish wokring on a couple currupt databases, but other than that, everything went smoothly.

 

Guess I need a new SSD.

 

Thanks for the help!
