Chewwwy_ Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 Hello and Thanks in Advance I recently added a new drive into my array, copied the content from another drive that was failing onto the new drive, replaced the failing one. Let the parity rebuild onto the new drive and have now since reformatted the new drive as I don't need the duplicated drive. I did it this way because i got told to do it this way (haha) My server gui has since reformatting become super slow, I tried to reboot and it took about 15 minutes. It took 40 minutes to mount the drives. I only have 5 with a total of 2 x 8TB, 2x 1TB, 1 x 4TB and an 8TB Parity. It has now been well over an hour and a half and I am still waiting for services to start. I have posted the syslogs and can post anything else if need be! https://pastebin.com/a3E6ah20 Quote Link to comment

Chewwwy_ Posted August 17, 2022 Author Share Posted August 17, 2022 A few people in the Reddit group. They kept saying they thought my drive would fail before parity was built and id loose all the data so was better of trying to use unbalanced and copy all the data, then ad parity and then remove and replace drive but it didn't fail it worked fine. I have attached diagnostics. Thanks again. tower-diagnostics-20220818-0628.zip Quote Link to comment
Chewwwy_ Posted August 18, 2022 Author Share Posted August 18, 2022 I have also noticed a lot of my dockers are now saying database disk image is maformed or irreparable failure. Quote Link to comment

Perhaps they got corrupted during the drive issues. Quote Link to comment

trurl Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Have you tried to restore appdata from your backup? Quote Link to comment
Chewwwy_ Posted August 18, 2022 Author Share Posted August 18, 2022 Unfortunately I didn't realise it wasn't backing up. It only seems to be a handful of apps I will attempt to reinstall them. Quote Link to comment
