August 1, 20232 yr Hi there, is it normal you dont get a notification if there is a files system corruption in unRaid? Had some Problems yesterday. Wanted to move some Files on the CLI and the listing of a folder didnt appear. Lookes at the Syslog and there were some red lines telling me about a metadata corruption on a drive and that i had to run xfs_repair. Okay did that, had a lot of files and folders in lost+found and quite a bit of "fun" partially restoring the from backup or move them back to their originally space. What wonders is that i didnt get a notification about that quite big issue. Normally i get notifications for everything. Edited August 1, 20232 yr by darkside40

August 1, 20232 yr Author Didnt get any althought Notifications are working correctly. But the drive also was not labeled faulty by unraid.
August 1, 20232 yr Community Expert Like mentioned you won't get a notification for filesystem corruption.
August 1, 20232 yr Author Okay than i get you wrong. Maybe something that should be considered because it is something that is present in the syslog.
August 1, 20232 yr Author Great seems that i lost some files. Just a quick questions, i think unraid is working on block level. So the parati also reflects the FS curruption, right? So a rebuild of the Drive would be useless.

August 2, 20232 yr Author Thats the way i do it with Borg Backup. The only bad thing is if files vanish because of such a corruption an you are not notified of it.
