I am on drive 2 to be replaced.  I lost data on the first one so trying not to loose data on this one.  I replaced a drive that was showing errors during a smart test.  I installed the new drive, and it was showing type 2 formatting.  So I reformatted with the following command "sg_format --format --fmtpinfo=0 /dev/sde".  After this, I started the parity rebuild.  During the parity rebuild I noticed that it said that it was unmountable? unsupported or no file sytem, but was hoping the rebuild would fix this.  The Parity rebuild is now done and I still get the same message.

 

During my first drive I removed the rebuilt drive and reformatted but ended up loosing data since it did not rebuild again after the format, so I don't want to do that again.  What do I need to do to get this drive normal without loosing any data, now that the parity has rebuilt.

 

 

I don't want to do anything before asking first.  I don't see disk3  listed..

Whatever you see during the rebuild is the same it will show when done, assuming the disk was xfs formatted start the array in maintance mode and post the output of:

xfs_repair -v /dev/md3p1

 

Running now, will update when finished.

Finally finished, and it says

"Sorry, could not find valid secondary superblock Exiting now. "

What options do I have?  I do have the old drive that this one was replaced.  I can copy things over if it comes down to it.

No valid xfs filesystem is being found, assuming that was the filesystem used something happened before the diags posted, if you have the old disk probably easier to just format the new one and copy the data back.

I have started copying files over.  QQ, does unraid know about the files because of the folder structure?  I guess unraid should just know the files on this disk once copied over?

Sorry, not sure I understand the question.

if I go to /mnt/usr/pictures it has all of my picture files that are spread across my 6 disk.  I am just courious how unraid knows to look in disk3 for my prictures directory that I copied over.  Thats all, I am just paranoid that after copiing over the files to the disk, unraid won't see them in the combined folder.

Unraid combines all array disks files into user shares, if you are accessing via /mnt/user, it will show that share's data from all disks.

So it just knows that there is a Pictures directory in /mnt/disk3/ drive.

 

Ok, ty.  

Everything is copied over and Uraid is back up.  TY for the help.  Learned a lot about Unraid these last few weeks
