This CAME from a backup.  Then I tried it again.  Same message.

Was this backup also in appdata? Do you have an older appdata backup on the array?

 

If your plex database is corrupt and there isn't a good backup you may have to start over with it.

 

Since this all started by filling cache, I checked your diagnostics again.

 

What is the purpose of the cache-prefer share t--p ?

It's "temp".  I'm not sure why it's there, but it's emply.

The database isn't corrupt, that's why I restored from a backup that worked.  But when I restored it, now I'm being told that it's read only.

Can you write anything to cache?

Were you using it for transcoding perhaps?

It's not a pool problem. 

Was taking a second look since the first one was on the phone and it's not so easy to look at the log, and I did miss this line:

Jun 30 17:43:58 Kaokulk kernel: BTRFS error (device nvme0n1p1): incorrect extent count for 19382927360; counted 1535, expected 1532

 

Fs is not going read-only, so this might not be the problem, but it is a problem, first time I remember seeing this error, so not sure how serious it is, you should make sure backups are up to date and attempt to repair the filesystem, or backup and re-format the pool, there's also this which I saw before:

 

Jun 30 17:43:51 Kaokulk kernel: BTRFS info (device nvme0n1p1): bdev /dev/nvme0n1p1 errs: wr 0, rd 0, flush 0, corrupt 4, gen 0
Jun 30 17:43:51 Kaokulk kernel: BTRFS info (device nvme0n1p1): bdev /dev/nvme1n1p1 errs: wr 0, rd 0, flush 0, corrupt 2, gen 0

 

Some data corruption was found at some time earlier, it might be from a while ago, still this is usually a sign of bad RAM or other hardware issue, if you don't re-format the pool you should reset the stats ad keep monitoring.

Yes. I copied a file from my desktop's Downloads folder to my Data share.

Yeah, back in May I had a bad memory stick and replaced the memory. 

  • Community Expert

Filesystem might have other damage, like the other issue, recommend backup and re-format.

The pool or the entire thing?

  • Author

I restored from a quite old copy of Plex, seems to work OK.

 

The rebuild should be complete late tonight, but I won't have time to work on the pool til probably Monday.  I'll update when I get to it.

So I’m using the steps on the website to back up the cache to the array. I changed the shares to Yes where appropriate and started the Mover. It took the cache from 600+GB to 483GB used. 
 

it hasn’t moved in the past couple of hours. The mover is still running, but nothing is happening. How can I see what’s happening, and why it’s stopped moving?

  • Community Expert

Enable mover logging, run the mover and when it stops post diags.
