6.12.10 I broke setup upgrading cache drive! Any advise?

Featured Replies

Long story short. Doing some upgrades 1 at a time to make sure I don't break anything.

Upgraded BIOS so I could change CPU. Good.

Changed parity drive to a larger one & moved old drive to array. Good

Wanted to upgrade cache drive from Crucial 275G SSD to Crucial 1TB NVME. Broke my setup!

The only variation was that I unassigned the SSD then assigned the NVME as cache. I moved all the shares from array to pool and watched the mover do its thing. Over 60GB of data to the new drive.  

 

Went to enable dockers - they are missing! I'm kinda lost here.... mnt/cache doesn't show any size on on the folders (appdata, domains, system) just <folder> 

Is there a way to get back from this or did I just fubar my set up?

Just my luck did mot touch anything after having my problem. BUT not plugged into the UPS at the moment. Of course the power went out due to weather last night... This is after a reboot.

Thanks for looking.

Trouble with dockers not wanting to reinstall. (actually 1 - letsencyrpt did. Yes I know I need to replace that one)

I feel like I'm on the right track but making bad decisions....

Should I have created the new image file in the same place? Was /mnt/user/system/docker/docker.img

After a bit of searching I decided to go with what I think is the default /mnt/cache/docker.img  Bad idea?

Those should end up being the same thing if the ‘cache’ pool is set as primary storage.   The /mnt/user/system/docker/docker.img path is the User Share path, while /mnt/cache/system/docket/docker.img is the disk path to the same location (since all top level folders which correspond to a share name on all pools and array disks are amalgamated to give the User Share contents.

Understood, I also left out system/docker part of the file path......

Re-created the docker.img file back to the /mnt/users/system/docker path. No love, when I attempt to re-install dockers from previous apps it just hangs. Blank screen, 3 dots wiggle.

I'm missing something here but not sure what.

OK looking over my shares that should be on the cache.

appdata shows 62.5GB on the cache. Nothing elsewhere.

Domains - zero (don't have any)

System data is split. 22.5 total with 21.5 on cache & 1.07GB on disc 1 of my array.

 

Is it possible when I moved files back to the cache they all didn't go?

After  a bit more investigation, the 1.07GB that is still on the disc 1 of the array is the libvirt file.

Safe way to move it to cache?

Stopped docker, stopped VM, invoked mover.   Yea! libvirt back on cache.

Attempted to re-create dockers, things flash quickly in the window. (it is a NVME LOL) But no dockers back......

"no such container" is the errors

See if the old appdata is also on disk1

It is all on the cache.

Then recreating the image and restoring the containers from CA should work, if it doesn't, it suggests appdata is damaged or incomplete

So I am destined to reinstall all the dockers I want back?

One is nextcloud am I  facing a data loss there also?

OK, so I am still trying here. Better info on the issue with dockers. I go to previous apps and tried installing the apps I want 1 at a time. "reinstall" This gives me the benefit of a report when it fails.

Turns out the reinstalls are failing because 0b of data is pulled! Mariadb, nextcloud, duckdns, collobora same error on all of them

Tried a new docker app, (never before installed, now shows as a previous install) same thing 0 data pulled and fail to install. 

Seems if the issue actually is that I'm unable to pull images.

Anyone have thoughts on how to correct this? 

Try changing your DNS server to 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220 instead of using your router.  Settings - Network Settings

Yes, this! Able to pull dockers now. Working on getting them working again.

 

Is this a change to leave in place?

It's fine to leave in place, you will be using the free OpenDNS servers for DNS, and it also suggests an issue with your router/ISP DNS server.
