Media Missing After Rebooting Server

[NightWriter]

I was enjoying some of my media and then decided to reboot my server when I went for a late lunch.  I didn't have a chance to use any of my media after the reboot until this morning.  When I went into my Plex server, I noticed all files, but 1, were gone.  Still in Plex, half of all the thumbnails were there, but when I click on them, they say, "Please check that the file exists and the necessary drive is mounted."

 

I have had some issues with my drives.  A drive (parity) went down a while ago and it hasn't been resolved.  I haven't had time to reconfigure my unraid, but it has been running fine since.  (6 months +).  So, the missing Parity and Disk 1 is normal.  This was that way prior to the data going missing.  
Thanks for your time/help.

Check filesystem on the emulated disk1.

 

What happened to old disk1? It's not being detected, parity is also disabled.

Disk 1 went out about 6 months ago, and I haven't addressed that since it was removed (time/low priority).  Since that drive went down, the system has ran fine, up until yesterdays reboot.  I have pulled that drive from my array.

I'd like to add, only issues are with the media not coming back after reboot.  All dockers/vms/game servers are running fine.

Did the filesystem check work?

I was able to sneak away and get that ran for you.

I should note, there wasn't a lost and found folder.

You ran with the -n (no modify) option set and that needs to be removed if you want anything to be fixed.    If it asks for -L then add that.

Ran it with the (-L). Thank you for all the help.  Very new to all of this.

 

Disk 1: -L (New)

Phase 1 - find and verify superblock...
Phase 2 - using internal log
        - zero log...
ALERT: The filesystem has valuable metadata changes in a log which is being
destroyed because the -L option was used.
        - scan filesystem freespace and inode maps...
clearing needsrepair flag and regenerating metadata
        - found root inode chunk
Phase 3 - for each AG...
        - scan and clear agi unlinked lists...
        - process known inodes and perform inode discovery...
        - agno = 0
        - agno = 1
        - agno = 2
        - agno = 3
        - agno = 4
        - agno = 5
        - agno = 6
        - agno = 7
        - agno = 8
        - agno = 9
        - agno = 10
        - agno = 11
        - agno = 12
        - process newly discovered inodes...
Phase 4 - check for duplicate blocks...
        - setting up duplicate extent list...
        - check for inodes claiming duplicate blocks...
        - agno = 0
        - agno = 3
        - agno = 1
        - agno = 2
        - agno = 4

        - agno = 8
        - agno = 9
        - agno = 11
        - agno = 12
        - agno = 10
Phase 5 - rebuild AG headers and trees...
        - reset superblock...
Phase 6 - check inode connectivity...
        - resetting contents of realtime bitmap and summary inodes
        - traversing filesystem ...
        - traversal finished ...
        - moving disconnected inodes to lost+found ...
Phase 7 - verify and correct link counts...
Maximum metadata LSN (1:28285) is ahead of log (1:2).
Format log to cycle 4.

When you restart the array in normal mode that drives contents should now show up fine.

Thank you!  This got me all my data back.  However, it's still showing "Not Installed" and reporting the wrong size.  (see attached).

Because as you said earlier disk1 is NOT physically present.   Its contents are being emulated using the contents of the other data drives plus your parity2 drive.   Why do you think the size is wrong?

 

At this time you have no redundancy as parity1 is disabled.   To get back redundancy you need to either rebuild the contents of parity1 or replace disk1.   I strongly suggest you check back here saying what change you intend to make as any error now will lead to data loss.
