April 18, 201214 yr What happens when there is a power failure to the unRaid box without a battery backup?
April 18, 201214 yr Server does not shutdown cleanly, a parity check follows after the restart, and hope for no errors from the drives.
April 19, 201214 yr I have a related qeury, apologies for the hijack. Yesterday I swapped out my router without shutting down the UnRAID box first. I couldn't see the box on the network after this so initiated a Powerdown/Reboot directly from the console (not with the power button, I used the shutdown command). Upon restarting the box a parity check was started automatically which completed with 14940 errors. The status page now shows parity as being valid so do I need to worry about lost/corrupted data now? My config includes a cache drive if that matters. ETA: Found this topic in the FAQs which suggests I have no cause for concern :- http://www.lime-technology.com/wiki/index.php/FAQ#Why_am_I_getting_repeated_parity_errors.3F I'm running another parity check now to see if it finds anymore errors. Update: Parity Check completed with 0 errors. Does this mean the previous errors were corrected during the previous check?
April 20, 201214 yr They may have been cause by the unclean shutdown. Install the powerdown script to shutdown from the console.
