Cache went Unmountable after update

Featured Replies

I updated UNRAID from 6.12.5 to 6.12.15 just now, and I was able to mount all disk just fine.

It randomly crashed after 30 or so minutes. After restarting the array, it now says my cache drive is Unmountable: Unsupported or no file system

I have read similar issues on the forums, but seen that same error is caused by different issues. I have attached my diagnostics if someone can help me out figure this out :)

Checksum errors are being detected on both metadata copies. Recommend running memtest first, then see here for some recovery options:

I am doing a single pass memtest. Already over 50 errors in the first half of the test. I will be replacing the RAM when it completes.

How does a RAM failure prevent the cache drive to mount?

Changed the RAM, ran 1 pass on memtest and passed with new RAM.

Tried mounting the array, same error on the cache disk. Here are the updated diagnostics.

It can corrupt the metadata.

Looks like you forgot those.

I sure did! lol

If it comes to using the link you provided for data recovery. Is there a more detail guide I can follow? I am still learning about unraid and linux in general. For example for the first step, am I able to run those commands from the terminal in the dashboard webui?

Does the array need to be in maintenance mode?
In my case since it's the nvme cache drive, I should replace sdX1 for nvme0n1p1?
When mounting the cache drive as read-only, will it mount it as an SMB?

After am able to recover the data (if possible) should I just replace that drive or the corruption was mainly caused by the RAM failing?

Probably easy questions for someone that has a deeper knowledge on this system, but for starters like me feels like a maze lol

No, it can be started in normal mode.

The device should be fine, if the recovery options work, backup what you can, reformat, and restore the data.

Nope.

I was able to move the files to a disk in the array. I am about to reformat the cache drive and move the files over again. Should I do this with cp -a command or use the Shares tab in the webui?

How do I go about deleting the /temp folder (mkdir /temp) and unmounting the drive (mount -o rescue=all,ro /dev/nvme0n1p1 /temp)

Either one will work; you can also use Midnight Commander, for example, mc on the console.

umount /temp

rm -r /temp

You can also just reboot
