Drive failures and recovery


Recommended Posts

Hello All,

 

I had a disk drive fail in my array.   The drive failure was showing xfs errors in the logs.  I replaced the drive and UNRAID rebuilt/recovered the data to the drive and the did a parity update.

The replacement drive then was having problems showing xfs errors (it was not new).   I reformatted the drive and its now empty.   Have I hosed all the data on that disk?  Is there a way to start a rebuild on that disk again since my parity was up to date.

 

Thanks,

Clayton

Please attach your diagnostics to your next post.

Can't be sure without looking at it, but if you say XFS errors (not disk errors) then rebuilding the drive will not solve the issue.
