(SOLVED) Cannot stop array to finalise shrink array while retaining parity operation

Hi,

 

I have just finished zeroing disk10 using this script, during the course of a "shrink array while retaining parity" operation.

 

I understand that this script unmounted disk10 just before zeroying it, as shown in the log below:

Unmounting Disk 10 ...
Clearing   Disk 10 ...

 

I now need to stop the array to create the new config without disk10, but i am stuck with this status: retry unmounting disk share(s)

 

Unraid logs show the following, which seems coherent with the unmounting performed by the zeroying script:

Nov  3 15:39:18 MOZART root: umount: /mnt/disk10: not mounted.
Nov  3 15:39:18 MOZART emhttpd: shcmd (17681057): exit status: 32
Nov  3 15:39:18 MOZART emhttpd: Retry unmounting disk share(s)...

 

How can i complete the "stop array" operation ?

 

I really need to do it the clean way this time.

 

Attached are the diagnostics files, if required.

 

Many thanks,

Op

I rebooted and got an unclean shutdown... Now performing a parity check...

 

I later found a comment under one of SpaceInvaderOne's video on YouTube that someone figured out how to finalise the "stop array" operation (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nV5snitWrBk&lc=Ugweuc_wFZta3uxs0PV4AaABAg.9u9MWHF1ArU9vHBCZfLE09) :

I created a local virtual disk using `dd if=/dev/zero of=diskX bs=1M count=310` (xfs requires at least 300mb disk), created filesystem with `mkfs -t xfs diskX` and mounted as `mount diskX /mnt/diskX`. Almost immediately after doing that, the stopping of the array was able to complete (cleanup the created virtual disks by running `rm diskX` after the array is stopped)

 

I hope this will help.
