Hey all, i'm running 5.0-beta14

 

Basically i upgraded my parity drive to a 4TB drive recently, upgrade went fine, then swapped out an old 1TB drive for the old parity drive which was 3TB. Did data rebuild on it and after unraid had green lights on all drive, did a parity check to make sure & they all came up positive, but basically whenever i restart unraid at the moment its keeps doing a data-rebuild on the drive (Done this twice now) parity checks return 100% fine though, and all disks are fine and healthy.

 

Should note my flash drive had some problems, just took it out and ran a chkdsk on it as it was read-only for some reason, put it back in and its fine now. Is data related to disks etc stored on the flash drive? Could this be the reason why its having to rebuild? as obviously it doesn't know about the new disk as it can't write to flash drive?

 

Hopefully its the flash drive problem! If not if anybody has any clues, that'd be great. Thanks

The rebuild has been occurring because unRAID has been unable to write the "rebuilt" status to the flash drive.

 

Now that the flash drive is writable again, you should be able to stop the array and reboot correctly.
