[Solved?] Help pls: First parity build failed, DISK_DSBL

Featured Replies

My first parity build has failed and the disk is now red-balled and showing DISK_DSBL.  I have tried reseating the disk and checked to cable and all seems well.  I have attached my syslog below and will also show the results of the SMART test (short).  In the meantime, I will swap out the sata cable and try again.  Can anyone see what the problem may be?  Thanks.

I was able to successfully build parity using a 2GB EARS that was in a different slot.  The parity build on the 3GB EZRX failed when I tried a different cable, so its looking like it might be the port  :(.  I'll test some more scenarios.  Are there any other tests I can run on the port?

You can run pre-clear on a disk connected to the subject port. This should reveal any problems.

So I pulled everything down and I reattached using different cables and different ports.  Another failure, but this time i get 'attempt to access beyond end of device'.  Any clues?

No, but you might want to bring this to lime-tech's attention.  It almost appears to be an off-by-one in that unRAID is attempting to get to a sector one greater than exists.

This is the smart report following the long test.  Shows nothing wrong with the drive...

It's not the port, not the cable, and the drive has passed both SMART tests.  No clue what else to do.

It is the attempt to access beyond the physical disk that is the issue.  That is an error when setting up the GPT partition.  (and it might be the utility he is using to create the GPT partition, or his calculation  of where it should end, but in either case, it is not going to go away until you work with him to resolve the cause)

 

As I suggested, have you sent an e-mail to [email protected] or [email protected] to alert them of this thread?

Yes, I sent tomm@lime-technology an email.  No response yet.

I didn't know if the fact that the partition format was showing GPT 4k-aligned (factory  cleared) was a problem or not, but I removed the drive from the array, and then formatted it with the reiserfs using the Disk Management tab in unMenu.  When it was done, the partition format was showing GPT 4k-aligned, no more (factory cleared).

 

The parity build worked after that.

3TB drives MUST have a GPT partiton.

 

I would not use that drive the way you formatted it. You have set yourself up for massive  errors.

Could I run another preclear cycle on it and then try again?

Could I run another preclear cycle on it and then try again?

You can.

 

Before you do, what to you see when you click on the disk icon in the unRAID interface.  How does it show it is formatted?

 

If it re-wrote the MBR and partitioned the disk correctly, no need to do anything.  It should say GPT partitioned...

 

Joe L.

  • Author

It does.  While it was failing, it showed GPT: 4k-aligned (factory-erased).  After I did the reiserfs format, the partition format showed GPT: 4k-aligned and I was instantly optimistic.  And then the parity build and parity check were successful.
