I have attached my logs to this post. tower-diagnostics-20240223-1839.zip

 

I performed the update to 6.12.8 just now and then two of my drives changed to have the message "Unmountable: Unsupported or no file system". Prior to my attempts at correcting this, the drives were listed as btrfs but now they have changed to auto.

One thing I did do which I'm not sure was a good idea was remove the device, start the array and then put the devices in after that. I had to make a new config so that it wasn't detected as a new device. The files that should be on that disk seem to be present but I haven't checked every file so I may be wrong. My dockers and VMs are still working.

 

Please could someone have a look at my logs to see if they can spot any errors that i need to fix.

 

Thanks

Hi, 

This is what came up.

Both disks 7 and 8 are members of the btrfs same pool, that's why then don't mount, I assume you came from v6.11.x or older, that scenario was not correctly detected before, also note that both disks would have the same content/stats, you can create a new pool with both and import the current data, much better for performance anyway, or backup the data somewhere else and re-format so that they become individual array disks.

Sorry, I'm still a bit unfamiliar with how exactly pools work, but if I understand correctly, you are saying that the two disks have been essentially set up in a way which is no longer allowed in v6.12, where both disks have the same data.

 

If I create a new pool, once I remove the 2 NVME drives from the old pool and move them into the new pool, would I lose the current data?

Correct.

It should import the old pool without any issue, you can do this:

 

Tools - New Config - Preserve all - apply

Go to main and unassing disks 7 and 8

Click add pool

Choose pool name and set it to 2 slots

Assign both devices to the pool, don't change anything else, leave the filesystem set to auto

Start the array, a parity sync will begin and the new pool show mount, if it doesn't post new diags.
