February 17, 20251 yr Hi everyone, I have been running Unraid for almost 2 years - for the first time since yesterday, large portions of my files (stored on my array drives) started "disappearing" from Unraid file explorer, and stopped being detected by docker containers (radarr, sonarr, etc.) as if they were deleted from the system, so some applications attempted to redownload the missing files. The original files "reappear" after a reboot or restart of array. Ran filesystem checks and repairs on one of my disks where corruption was flagged, and I also ran a memory test which did not flag any error. Same problem reoccurs after those repairs / resolution attempts. My diagnostic file is attached. Thanks very much in advance. tower-diagnostics-20250216-2219.zip Edited February 17, 20251 yr by wildenrou precisions
February 18, 20251 yr I've been having a similar issue recently where files/folders are randomly disappearing from the file system but will reappear after I reboot the server. This particular server has been running for almost 8 years and has never experienced this type of issue before.

You are likely to get better informed feedback if you attach your system’s diagnostics zip file to your next post in this thread created when you experience the issue. It may even be better to create a new thread to make tracking easier within the forum. 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.
February 23, 20251 yr Author Thanks both for your answers. Is there any other information or context I can provide that would help you to help me? Don't know if it's related, but I am currently running a parity check due to an unclean shutdown that occured yesterday. It appears that the parity check has corrected 9566 errors for now, being at only 22% of the process. Can't remember having seen errors come out of a parity check before, and the amount of error got me a a bit worried. As you can see I'm a noob and am currently clueless. Thanks again for any guidance or support you could provide, let me know if you would like me to send diagnostics again. Cheers
