Parity stuck at 100%.

[obnoxious-hacker]

IM on umraid Version: 6.11.1 I'm using a Dell R510 with 2 

Intel® Xeon® CPU X5650 @ 2.67GHz with 40 gigs of ram bios is up to date.

 

my problem is I have a 4-terabyte parity drive, and, in my array, I have 4 terabyte  2 terabyte 2 terabyte 1 terabyte 1 terabyte with a total 10 T in my array my parity won't go green it says 100% now for at least 16 days that's the most I have let it get to so I'm looking for help please.

 

Now I was just thinking Cuz my array is 10 T is 4 T parity enough for the 10 T array that just popped in my head if not any help, please I have been working on this for at least 6 months thanks you to everyone's help.

You should attach your diagnostics file in the next post.

The parity drive only needs to be as large or larger than the larger data drive.

You are fine on that point.

Log is spammed with unrelated issues, make sure you close any browser windows opened to the GUI on an Android device, add 'logging = 0' to SMB extra settings, then reboot and try again, if the same happens post new diags, also note that RAID controllers are not recommend with Unraid, though it should not be the reason for this issue.

Looks clean so far, try syncing parity again.

okay I stated it again yesterday at Tue 25 Oct 2022 02:31:32 PM PDT just haven't gone to see what it has done but m going to check it right now. Here is a screen shot just seems slow if it doesn't work again this time I should i take out all may drivers format them all and then stick the back in and start right from the get-go again? what you think?

Now your ad said something about the raid card but that it should make a different is there a way to take the cad out and have then just as driver with no raid card? If so, I can try something like that I'm new at the server game i can do the basic things im just not the smartest when it comes to everything thank you again for your time

If it gets stuck in the same place I would start suspecting the RAID controller, in that case try using the onboard SATA or HBA, ideally an LSI, if either is a possibility.

Please post current diags.

Okay not sure if this was the right fix but this is what I did.

 

I did a New Config and started with one 4 T in the parity 1 spot and one 4T in the array and rain the parity scan and it went through both array and parity went green so great so then I add A 2T into the array ran scan and formatted it and everything went green so then I add one drive at a time and now everything is working great all great parity and ariary so thank you very much for all the info you have gave me and the help you gave me and your time thank you so much and God Bless to you and to the people on the forum that are here helping people like me .

Thanks but only useful if they are saved when the sync stalls, if it happens again in the future please post new ones.
