July 17, 20232 yr Hi everyone my array went down suddenly with Unmountable: Unsupported or no file system on one of my disks. the file system now shows auto instead of xfs like it should and now that disk has errors. how can i copy the data off that drive to the other drives and save it? ive attached the diag file. any help is appreciated. matrix-diagnostics-20230716-2158.zip
July 17, 20232 yr Disk3 is failing, you can see if the emulated disk mounts, then use a new disk and rebuild.

See if the ‘emulated’ drive shows as mounted and the contents look correct. Replacing/Rebuilding drives is cover here in the online documentation accessible via the ‘Manual’ link at the bottom of the GUI or the DOCS link at the top of each forum page.

Ok I kind of figured that's what he meant. I tried that this morning before work and unraid won't mount it and wants to format the drive. Not really sure what else to do other than taking the drive out and seeing if I can read the files with my windows machine.

You should try the procedures detailed in this section of the online documentation accessible via the ‘Manual’ link at the bottom of the GUI or the DOCS link at the top of each forum page which covers handling drives reported as unmountable. The results of that will determine on what advice you get as the best way to proceed.

July 17, 20232 yr Just now, KLLSWITCH said: So one thing is the file system shows auto and I didn't see auto covered? If you know what format was used (probably XFS in the array) then you can set it explicitly by clicking on the drive on the Main tab with the array stopped. The auto option relies on Unraid being able to dynamically work out what format was used. Once set explicitly the check/repair options appear that are appropriate to the format you set.

I am unable to select a fs for that drive since it won't mount.
July 17, 20232 yr 1 minute ago, KLLSWITCH said: I am unable to select a fs for that drive since it won't mount did you stop the array first! You need to select the file system at that point before any attempt is made to mount it. You cannot change that setting once you have started the array.

July 17, 20232 yr Strange then. At that point I have no problems changing the file system on my own systems,

July 17, 20232 yr 15 minutes ago, KLLSWITCH said: Is that what the disc mounted or unmounted? By definition if the array is stopped the disk is not mounted.

July 19, 20232 yr Author sorry for the late reply work has been busy. The check filesystem came back with this Edited July 19, 20232 yr by KLLSWITCH
July 19, 20232 yr Author ok so i got the drive repaired for the time being but now all my docker containers are gone? i went to docker and it said no error were found but all the containers are gone?
