November 10, 20223 yr I'm running v.6.9.2. I noticed Plex was unavailable today while at work (I stream music from it). I got home and checked unRAID, and noticed Docker wasn't running. I wasn't able to start it. I figured I'd restart the array to see if that helps. The array wouldn't stop. I eventually powered down the server via the GUI, and it did a semi-graceful shutdown. I tried booting back up and cannot get to the GUI now. The server pings and I can SSH into it. I've attached the syslog file. Are there any other logs I should attach? In poking around the flash drive, I thought I found something that showed SMART data for all the drives, and they all showed "Passed" but I can no longer find that info. Windows did pop up a "Windows is having trouble reading this drive" error when I plugged in the flash drive...but I've seen that before with other perfectly good flash drives, so I don't know if that's a red herring. I have a backup of the flash drive, but it's from 4/1/22, so not super current. I haven't changed any drives since that time, but I did add a GPU. My initial instinct was to disconnect and reconnect all drives, but I don't want to touch anything until I get another opinion. Thanks in advance! syslog.txt

It booted as "Tower" instead of "HomeNAS," and had a self-assigned IP instead of the valid LAN IP. For kicks and giggles, I plugged the original flash drive in and force-selected "GUI Mode" at boot, which seems to have booted fine. A monitor connected to the server has a GUI, and the web GUI is now working. Are there any steps I should take prior to starting the array? I guess I'm just paranoid. I work in IT, but unRAID is relatively new to me, and I'd rather not screw up my server. Thanks for your help thus far!! EDIT: The array started fine. I'm running a parity check for good measure...Hopefully this was all just a fluke. Edited November 10, 20223 yr by weilycoyote
