May 5, 20251 yr What: Append parity history to include write corrections on/off Why: My server did it's 3montly parity check a few days ago successfully with no errors detected (I think anyway). but each day since then it keeps repeating & starting a parity check at 9am. So I am trying to narrow down why or what's triggering it. Noticed in parity history can't see if the previous checks were with write corrections on or off etc. Be good to understand a bit more thus append history could be useful to me & others. moulin-rouge-diagnostics-20250505-1659.zip
May 5, 20251 yr Community Expert Solution If you install the Parity Check Tuning plugin even if you use none of its capabilities for pausing/resuming array operations the entries in the Parity History will be enhanced to give additional information including this type of information.
May 5, 20251 yr Author Aha thanks. Ok it seems something caused the server to crash the night after it did a successful parity check or similar so it did a check the next day & keeps repeating as it thinks it needs it.
May 5, 20251 yr Community Expert You will only get the additional information on new history entries. There is no ability to do it restropectively to entries as the required information is not available.
May 6, 20251 yr Author Ah ok well I did have it installed and removed to see if it was the cause of issues so guess it is reading info from when installed, deleted then reinstalled (same day).

It needs to be installed (and thus running) while the parity check is in progress so that the required information can be gathered to get the parity history record right on completion of the operation.
