Eviseration Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 Hello, I am trying to add a new 12TB drive to my array. I pre cleared the disk prior to adding it to the array. When I added the disk to the array, it says it was unmountable (b/c I hadn't formatted it yet). I went ahead and formatted the drive, but the format stops after a couple of seconds and now the drive says it's Unmountable: Unsupported Partition Layout. Im attaching the diagnostics. gringotts-diagnostics-20220910-1159.zip Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 What do you get from the command line with this? fdisk -l /dev/sdf Quote Link to comment
Eviseration Posted September 10, 2022 Author Share Posted September 10, 2022 I am re-running the pre-clear. Something tells me I did something wrong after the pre-clear finished. I'm not doing the pre/post reads, just the clear. I'll try to add it again and see what happens. It's a 12TB drive, so it's gonna be a while for it to pre-clear. Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 You needed to reboot first: Sep 10 08:47:47 Gringotts root: Warning: The kernel is still using the old partition table. Sep 10 08:47:47 Gringotts root: The new table will be used at the next reboot or after you Sep 10 08:47:47 Gringotts root: run partprobe(8) or kpartx(8) Quote Link to comment
