Disk Clear to take 500 days??

[Profezor]

Hi!

 

I have installed a 14 tb drive. Disk clear is running really slooooowly. It. is projected for 500-600 days. 

Is there a way to skip disk-clear or speed it up?

 

I need the drive online asap.

 

Thanks

There is something going wrong!   You are likely to get better informed feedback if you attach your system’s diagnostics zip file to your next post in this thread.

Not sure why the clear is going so slowly    I would normally expect it take something like ~2 hours per TB.

 

I see hundreds of lines in the syslog of the form:

Jun 24 15:12:56 Galaxy nginx: 2023/06/24 15:12:56 [alert] 4997#4997: worker process 8572 exited on signal 6
Jun 24 15:12:57 Galaxy nginx: 2023/06/24 15:12:57 [alert] 4997#4997: worker process 8573 exited on signal 6

not sure what is causing them but they are not normal.

Thanks for taking a look.

HOW TO I kill the process and just install the drive?

You cannot use the drive until it's been cleared, if you forced it it'd invalidate your parity protection.

 

Maybe a reboot could help, if not it could be a hardware issue...
