disk.cfg

[srfnmnk]

We had a major power spike X2 during a storm the other day and both times it was powerful enough to blow out a UPS resulting in server restart. The second failure I assume happened during boot...either way, the configs got borked and I had to restore /boot/config to get things working again. 

 

One of the major issues was that my disk configs were all missing and none of the 24 disks were assigned anywhere.

 

Throughout this process I noticed that the disk.cfg was basically empty even in historical backups. By empty I mean, all the values seem empty, attached for reference. Even now, when it's all restored and working fine, the disk.cfg is still relatively empty...where is the drive to disk mapping stored? I'm on 6.12.4. Additionally, where are the docker config xmls stored?

 

Thanks

super.dat

I think that file is the only non-text config file, you can't open it in a text editor and get readable content.

Was your flash backup missing config/super.dat?

Also the pools folder in config has the assignments for any pools.

Yeah when the server crashed some of the files got corrupted / deleted. I didn't know super.dat had it, I think disk.cfg used to have it. I looked and looked for it. Is there any way to open super.dat?

Did you have a current flash backup?

[srfnmnk]

yeah I already restored and it worked fine. This is more just about my curiosity at this point. I learned what I didn't know, hence the questions.
