Fefepaille Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 (edited) Hi, There is an "Unmountable: Unsupported or no file system" disk in my array. (It's the disk 8, the second will be replaced tomorrow). It happened after a crash. Partitions are xfs. I tried the check_xfs command in maintenance mode, with or without the -L argument, but no way. I'm pretty scared, If someone have an idea... Should I zero the disk and rebuild it with the parity ? Thanks a lot. Here's the diag and the result of xfs_repair. _____________________________________________________ TLTR : xfs_repair didn't help me. Even the beta 7.0. Using UFS Explorer in another setup was the solution. (The only "trick" to do is to select the right system file format, xfs) Investigation still ongoing: percentage of dataloss. Pretty low I guess. xfs log.txt unraid-diagnostics-20240726-1819.zip Edited July 27 by Fefepaille Topic solved Quote Link to comment
Solution JorgeB Posted July 26 Solution Share Posted July 26 xfs_repair is failing, you can try 7.0.0-beta, since it includes a newer version, if the same, the best bet will be using a file recovery app, like UFS explorer. 1 Quote Link to comment
Fefepaille Posted July 26 Author Share Posted July 26 Thanks for your quick answer ! Ok I'm trying it. If no good result, the parity can't help me ? Zeroing the disk and rebuilt it will result a data loss ? I never had very good results with recovery tools... Quote Link to comment
Fefepaille Posted July 26 Author Share Posted July 26 Well. Let's try UFS explorer. Quote Link to comment

Fefepaille Posted July 26 Author Share Posted July 26 (edited) Agreed, With the array and parity on, some of my files vanished. Do you have any tips with UFS Explorer ? => Doing a recovery. Praying for a pretty good result. Thanks again. Edited July 26 by Fefepaille Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 Not really since I've never used it, but should be pretty straight forward, the trial version should show if it's able to recover any data or not. Quote Link to comment
Fefepaille Posted July 27 Author Share Posted July 27 (edited) Well, UFS works pretty well. I got like.... 40GB of soup. (maybe old removed files) The rest (about 7TB) are ok, with a correct structure. I'll just "format" the drive after the backup, and the show must go on ! But I've got a last question : is the xfs file system strong enough ? Theses last 24h were painfull af, don't wan't to do this again ! Thank you again.

JorgeB Posted July 27 Share Posted July 27 Xfs is usually pretty good at recovering from filesystem corruption, but sometimes it can't, still probably the better of the 3 available for that, consider having some backups, at least of the really important stuff. Quote Link to comment
Fefepaille Posted July 27 Author Share Posted July 27 Ok. Recovery with XFS seems to be pretty good, doin' it. Not all heroes wear capes. Thanks again. 1 Quote Link to comment
