October 9, 20223 yr Hi, since the update to 6.11 (now the latest version 6.11.1) I have the third time a missing keyhole error. I have used a new flash drive and another USB port. But after a few days it's the same problem. The keyfile is missing and there are no VM or Docker tabs visible. The containers are running. If I reboot the system, something is ok for about two days. Is there a bug in 6.11? Can I downgrade to 6.10 ( there I don't had problems)? Regards Werner

Regards Werner This sounds more like a problem of some sort at the hardware level. The requested diagnostics should allow for more informed feedback.
October 9, 20223 yr Author Hi, thanks for your quick reply. Attached is the diagnostic file. unraid-diagnostics-20221009-1320.zip
October 9, 20223 yr Community Expert You definitely have an issue with the flash drive as you are getting error messages such as: Oct 9 13:20:31 unRAID kernel: FAT-fs (sda1): Directory bread(block 32768) failed Oct 9 13:20:31 unRAID kernel: FAT-fs (sda1): Directory bread(block 32769) failed and other ones that indicate failures trying to access files under /boot (which is where the flash drive is mounted). Could not tell whether the problem was the flash drive itself or something else that was causing it to go offline.
October 9, 20223 yr Author OK, many thanks for your help. I'll try an USB port at the back. Maybe the controller of the front ports are defective. Yes, in unraid under /boot is nothing... I'll give a feedback if it's helped. Thanks again.
October 9, 20223 yr Author Yes, it's USB 2.0. But now I have only USB 3.0 ports. On the USB 2.0 ports I've the same failure (with the old and the new flash drive). Maybe the same controller...
October 11, 20223 yr Author Now I have tried a back USB 2.0 port. Since Sunday it works fine. Now the keyfile is missing again after reload the dashboard. I already made a BIOS update, checked the USB port settings in the BIOS. Everything is ok. Two days works fine, than the keyfile is missing. Now I will downgrade to 6.10. There I don't had problems. I'll give a feedback... Hopefully it helps.
October 17, 20223 yr Author Solution Hi, something happend with the USB 2.0 port. Other devices (UPS, smart home antenna) working well, only the flash go offline after one or two days. Since five days I use a USB 3.1 port (same flash drive) and everything works well. Maybe I find out where the problem is. The main thing is that it is running again. Thanks again for your help.
