I was running 6.12.10 with NFS mounts working fine in Wondows 10 for me, just upgraded to .14 and all the mounts broke, I'm going back to .10. Unless anyone has anything I can try to get my mounts back? More info here: Edited January 2, 20251 yr by shdwkeeper

January 24, 20251 yr Author SO I was finally able to finish, then the 7.0.0 update flashed, so I figured it was a safe bet, updated rebooted and the drive now has to be rebuilt again, like it never acknowledge when I first removed the bad drive, as it showed up again! Now on 7.0.0 can't get past 15% rebuilding before NFS dies on me, trying to restart the service via CLI just hangs, can't even kill the process. Not sure what to do now...

There are two new settings in 7.0.0 that should fix this for you: Go to Settings->Global Settings and set the "Number of fuse File Descriptors:" to 100,000. Go to Settings->NFS and set the "Number of Threads:" to 32. Feel free to tweak these even more if ncessary.
February 13, 20251 yr Author I finally am starting to make progress, I added the following script to cron.daily and just restart the nfs server every 24 hours which has thus far been before it dies, because once it does that nothing will allow me to stop and restart it. I'm currently 21% in with 11 days left. #!/bin/sh /usr/local/etc/rc.d/rc.rpc stop /usr/local/etc/rc.d/rc.nfsd stop killall nfsd sleep 30s /usr/local/etc/rc.d/rc.rpc start /usr/local/etc/rc.d/rc.nfsd start exportfs

I guess I'll lose all of my data thanks to Unraid... Why has NFS always worked for me except for here?

February 20, 20251 yr Author I need the data live while I'm doing this. Is there anyway for me to restart the rebuild process after a reboot, a pause?
February 21, 20251 yr Community Expert 8 hours ago, badmark said: I need the data live while I'm doing this. I don't follow, first let the rebuild finish, don't transfer any data at the same time, since it will slow it down by a lot, you can still use the server for reads or small writes, but any other heavy i/o should also be avoided.
February 22, 20251 yr Author I've disconnected the shares, this is what time I looking to rebuild? Now there is no I/O but the rebuild, and it's going to take two months?!?! How is this in anyway acceptable?

You should post diagnostics created while you are experiencing this slow rebuild.
February 23, 20251 yr Community Expert It looks like disk6 has significant issues: 5 Reallocated_Sector_Ct PO--CK 095 095 010 - 21416 and there are continual read errors on that drive so I would not expect the rebuild to be successful.
February 23, 20251 yr Author I know, it did not three months ago when I began this process, but having only one parity drive I have no options here! So what, I'm screwed and my data is lost? I was convinced by others that Unraid was reliable and I could depend on it, but apparently this is not the case.
February 24, 20251 yr Community Expert Single parity can protect again one bad disk, not two, for that, you would need to have dual parity, run an extended SMART test on disk6. Do you still have old disk7, or is it completely dead?
February 25, 20251 yr Author Old Disk 7 is dead. I planned on adding parity, but did not expect rebuild to take months...
February 26, 20251 yr Community Expert 10 hours ago, badmark said: but did not expect rebuild to take months... The time it takes to add parity will depend mostly on the disks size and other hardware, but if all is working well and there aren't any controllers bottleneck, it should take around 2 to 3 hours per TB, if it's taking more than a couple of days even for large disks, there's a typically an issue.
