February 19, 20233 yr Hi All, Over the last 3 days i have had lockups with my server. They happened during the night while i was sleeping. So unsure why its just started happening. First day it check parity and found 7 errors Second day i last time i checked it found 711 errors i don't think it finished its check third day (today) its checking parity again so far 1 error and its 7.8% through This morning i also noticed a lot of files missing. I check plugin fix common problems and its stated that unable to write to disk4 Drive mounted read-only or completely full. Begin Investigation Here. I went into main tab and clicked browse disk 4 and its come up as invalid path. its used 7.51TB and there is still 2.49tb free. Unsure if i should continue the parity check or restart in safe mode and do the drive check to disk 4. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks gauntlet-diagnostics-20230219-1149.zip Edited February 19, 20233 yr by cheww

February 19, 20233 yr Author Solution Hi All, So i decided to stop the parity check - reading in another forum that even if the drive is not readable running a parity check wont solve an invalid or missing drive. So i stopped the array and ran it it maintenance mode clicked on drive 4 and ran the XFS check.. It found a few errors so i took off the -n and ran it again. Stated to remount the drive and check it if its not there then to go back to maintenance mode and use the -L option. Did that and started the array again as normal and hey presto the drive and all files are back. It moved some files over to a lost and found directory. They were only a few jpg files nothing important. I've decided to run the check on drives 1 and 3 as Trurl noted to check connections. Which i also did before i ran the maintenance mode stuff. I will re run the parity check and make sure that's all in sync too. Thank you Happy i solved something by myself for once
