AntoineR Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Hey, I'm writing on this forum because I'm having issues and want to avoid creating more problems by being a newbie. My unRAID server was forcibly shutdown during a power outage while it was doing its parity check. After the issues and a reboot it could restart the array no problem and restarting doing its parity check. During the check it crashed saying that disk1 was disabled (didn't write down the actual error message, sorry for the dumb mistake). I stopped the array to try and help it restart, and upon restarting it I now get the error "unmountable : no file system" for all my drives. I'm lost and have no idea what to do to avoid losing data, any help will be appreciated. Thanks a lot! pegasus-diagnostics-20220802-2322.zip Quote Link to comment
Solution JorgeB Posted August 3, 2022 Solution Share Posted August 3, 2022 Problem with the onboard SATA controller, quite common with some Ryzen servers, reboot and post new diags after array start, if this continues to happen best bet is to get an add-on controller (or use a different board).

AntoineR Posted August 3, 2022 Author Share Posted August 3, 2022 Sorry for the delay in my answer and thanks a lot for yours and your time. Here are the diagnostics after rebooting the server, this time it could mount the drives seemingly without issue, but disk1 still appears as being disabled. pegasus-diagnostics-20220803-0920.zip Quote Link to comment

That's expected, once a disk gets disabled it needs to be rebuilt: https://wiki.unraid.net/Manual/Storage_Management#Rebuilding_a_drive_onto_itself Quote Link to comment
AntoineR Posted August 3, 2022 Author Share Posted August 3, 2022 Alright thanks I'll try that, will report back afterwards, thanks again both for your help and your time! 1 Quote Link to comment
AntoineR Posted August 4, 2022 Author Share Posted August 4, 2022 (edited) Alright so that did it, the server is back on track and works well, I also ran an extended SMART test on the disk which was initially having a bad time and it passed it, so I guess it's all good? For future reference, what do you think caused this issue in the first place? Simply unlucky timing for a power outage and the disk is still fine? You also suggested getting an external SATA controller, do you have recommendations? I expect having about up to 10 disks down the line in total. Here's the diagnostics as usual! Thanks again for your help and your time pegasus-diagnostics-20220804-0847.zip Edited August 4, 2022 by Antoine Rincent Found my VM issue so removed the question as it wasn't linked with the disk issue.
