Hello unraiders,

 

I upgraded to 7.0 a few weeks ago and I have found that every time I reboot my drive ids change.  The first time it was my parity drive, so I let it rebuild parity, no big deal.  The second time it was a data disk, so it had to rebuild. 

 

You'll see in the attached screenshot that my parity drive has replaced the drive serial number with:

00000000000000001 and it should be ST18000NT001-3LU101_ZR5A9CP4..  The next boot it might be disk 1 or disk2 that goes wonky.   I've shutdown, reset all drive, and connections.  

 

 

 

I have a very small minimalist type setup, but it has worked for my needs for several years.  

CPU is a Beelink SEi11 

4 slot Probox enclosure connected via USB-C

3 - 18tb Seagate drives

1 - 2tb SSD for cache

 

I did some searches and saw that USB is not recommended, but it has worked flawlessly for me up to unraid 7.   I looked for any firmware updates for my beelink usb and didn't find anything.  Is there any way to manual update the drive serial numbers that unraid sees so they remain static?

 

Thanks for your help.

 

You are likely to get better informed feedback if you attach your system’s diagnostics zip file to your next post in this thread taken when you next encounter the problem.It is always a good idea when asking questions to supply your diagnostics so we can see details of your system, how you have things configured, and the current syslog.

I've attached the diagnostics zip file.

This can happen with USB enclosures that are not fully compatible with the newer UASP driver, disabling it should resolve it, post the output from:

 

lsusb -vt

 

Here is the output, but it may not show anything now.  I reverted back to 6.12.14 and all my drives are recognized correctly.

It would be better from v7, but try adding a quirk to the default boot mode with 2109:0715:u, like below but with the correct ID:

 

Thanks.  Just to clarify I add that with the correct id for my USB flash boot device?

Yes, click on the flash then scroll down to syslinux configuration.

Sorry I didn't try this sooner, but I updated to 7.0.1 this morning and this is still an issue.  So I added the quirk and my drives are still not identified with the full names.  I've attached my diagnostics.  Is there any other course of action?  Should I pass the quirk for each drive?

add lsusb output

I had the wrong device id.  This worked.
