Cache Drive in trouble


Recommended Posts

I switched chassis.

I have. no issue with the moved data drives, BUT my SSD cache drive shows. - unmountable.

 

So I have no access to that drive. Without formatting and starting. from scratch, any ideas? 

 

Thanks. in advance.

There are ATA errors with multiple devices, check/replace cables

re-add the dockers, but capture the configuration from the existing appadata files?

The configuration isn't in the appdata. Like all other settings in your Unraid webUI, the templates for reinstalling your containers is on the boot flash in the config folder.

thanks. Cables.

so I should probably replace all the SATA cables to be sure?

 


I wasn’t hiding anything. I thought that the two forums would reach different people who would have different perspectives.

Given, I am not using my backup usb as it would not boot, I am using a fresh unraid install. So it doesn’t have my old containers.

 

Do you think I could copy the docker templates from the unbootable usb? If so where are the templates and associated files located?

 

if it Docker.man and docker folder within the plug-in folder? Or should I copy over more?

Nobody said you were hiding anything. Your other thread was hidden by the moderator.

 

No reason for posting in multiple threads is a good enough reason to make up for

Basic long-standing internet etiquette. It makes it impossible to coordinate responses.

 

What if someone sees one of your threads, goes to a lot of trouble to research and post a long detailed response.

 

And someone else sees the other thread, goes to a lot of trouble to research and post a long detailed response, not realizing they are wasting all that time and effort because it was already done on another thread.

Ok, I have made progress.

i have all my dockers back.

 

i also changed all my Sata cables with brand new ones, But now the system can’t see three drives. Could it be not the sata cables but the power cables? Or…?Diagnostic attached.

I will check and get back to you. But at least 3 of 5 were visible after I switched cables, but now I just see 2.

No they don't show up in the Bios either, I just see the 2 drives plus the 2 cache drives. It must be a power connection or bios setting or?

If you have already replaced the cables (including power) and the devices are still not detected in the BIOS it suggests a device or board problem.

OK here is a bit more info.

 

I added the Disk Location plugin.

 

The two 16 TB Seagate drives (one is data and one is the parity)  in the Not Found Section passed the SMART test, so they have power and they both have new SATA cables as well. However, they both don''t show up in the array (or as unassigned drives).

 

Any ideas on how to get them to appear? This is last issue from rebuilding. What I am I missing?

 

Thanks in advance.
