grupoleon Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 (edited) Greetings, I am experiencing and issue with my cache drive (1TB SSD) which has been working fine for a month. The drive is no longer mountable as it states it is not recognizable and gives me option to format (I have not done this). What I am seeing is the following description "CacheWD_Blue_SA510_2.5_1000GB_23450W800709 - 276 GB (sdt)29 C0.0 B/s0.0 B/s0xfsUnmountable: Unsupported or no file system" Also, I noticed it says 276 GB which is strange as I suspect it is the space it has reserved. I looked through the forum and attempted several of the options to repair the XFS drive. Attempted to analyze with -n via the gui and received following feedback. Quote Phase 1 - find and verify superblock... error reading superblock 2 -- seek to offset 500101922816 failed couldn't verify primary superblock - attempted to perform I/O beyond EOF !!! attempting to find secondary superblock... .... Sorry, could not find valid secondary superblock Exiting now. I would like to ask for and appreciate help on how best to proceed and recover the cache drive. Diagnostics attached. arco-diagnostics-20240128-2025.zip Edited January 29 by grupoleon Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Are you sure cache is supposed to be XFS? Most of your array is ReiserFS. Why? You have a lot of work to do on that. Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Assuming cache is XFS Check filesystem on cache. Be sure to use the webUI and not the command line. Post the output. Quote Link to comment
grupoleon Posted January 29 Author Share Posted January 29 (edited) Firstly, thank you for the reply. Re filesystem - it is ResiserFS because I have this running for years. I am in the process this year to move everything to XFS (tedious and slow). Yes, the cache drive was explicitly set to XFS. I even flipped it to btrfs as a test to see if it would mount. no luck. I did check the filesystem using the gui (with and without the -n flag) and output was what is in quote above about not finding secondary block. Edited January 29 by grupoleon Quote Link to comment

It's not a reserve, the device capacity is only being detected as 275.95GB, suggesting a device problem, post the output of: fdisk -l /dev/sdt Quote Link to comment

grupoleon Posted January 29 Author Share Posted January 29 I also ran a SMART extended test with no error found arco-smart-20240129-0044.zip Quote Link to comment

grupoleon Posted January 29 Author Share Posted January 29 Power cycle unraid - no success Power cycle server - no success Power cycle server AND swapped SATA cable - Success. Thank you for helping troubleshoot this. I am going to chuck the cable but it's weird that it would fail. 1 Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Make sure backups are up to date, it may fail again, since it's looks more like a device issue. Quote Link to comment

I just ran a new back up, submitted RMA for a new SSD Now I'm back to the weekend work of updating file system from resier to XFS before end of year. Quote Link to comment
