November 10, 20223 yr Community Expert This latest screenshot was waiting for you to reboot so upgrade could be applied. Did you? Have you checked lost+found share?

I have recently returned home, I preferred to be near the server for the reboot and its build. I just did this and it looks all right again! Now I will have to wait around 20-22 hours for the rebuild to finish. The data would all appear to have been recovered! Thank you very much for the precious support you have given me. Alone I would surely have made irrecoverable disasters. As soon as the rebuild is finished you will day to confirm the success! Edited November 10, 20223 yr by steppi

November 11, 20223 yr Author I write this post to summarize everything that has happened to me hoping it will be of help to those who find this. My first problem was having a Marvell controller installed which corrupted two disks in the array. This led me to have a big problem: unraid can only handle 1 corrupt or broken disk. When the broken discs are more than 1 it becomes a bad situation. So following all the suggestions of the forum I understood that we must act in this way: - Turn off server - Add a new hdd equal or larger in size to the largest of the broken ones - Turn on pc - Install ddrescue (from nerd tool package) - Stop array - Access via terminal - ddrescue /dev/sdX/ dev/sdY/ /boot/ddrescue.log (replace X with the broken disk and Y with the new disk) - server reboot - assign the new-clone disk (sdY) in the array - start array Hopefully the rebuild of the other corrupt / broken disk should start If you can't assign sdY and it says "wrong", there is a filesystem problem so try to do this (see last post): - unraid menu - tool - new config - assign the disk - confirmation - stop array - start array - with maintenance mode then from the terminal: xfs_repair -vL /dev/md7 (replace 7 with the disk number that is nn recognized) If I have forgotten any passages, please correct the post. The important thing that this mini-guide remains for the next unfortunate like me who stumble upon a similar adventure.
