Hi I keep getting a warning in my log file showing sda1 was not shut down correctly. Please run fsck on the drive. I have tried to run this but it is difficult for me to figure out how to do correctly in Linux. In mounting running and remounting is not something I am use to on the USB drive in Linux. So I place the drive in my windows 7 box it gives same warning so I run chkdisk and it is fixed. Now I correctly unmount the drive. Boot the server warning gone.  Stop the array do a restart or shutdown from the GUI. During boot I get the warning again???

 

Now my biggest thing is I did not have a power bump or kill the server by power button. Everything works and array is stable. So I feel I am being anal but I would like a solution. Is there a way I can put something in the go script or some ware that will do a disk check and reset the bit so that I don't keep getting this error.

 

This is something i noticed a few months ago. I place the drive inside the server so every time I fix it I have to remove the cover. Also I would hate the USB drive to get real corruption and not know it because I keep ignoring the warning because I get so use to it.

 

Thank you in advance.

There is no way to run checkdisk on the flash within unRAID. The message results from the system not shutting down correctly. Attach a syslog. zip if needed. Are you using the stock unRAID main page to initiate shutdown/reboot?

That is the thing shutdown was conducted correctly. so the syslog only shows the startup.

syslog.zip

Since unraid doesn't natively handle USB drives, all tasks must be completed manually, or by some script. You will need to unmount the drive cleanly before shutting down the array. The array shutdown cleanly unmounts only array devices, not add on USB drives. Wherever you got the info to mount the drive, should have the info needed to unmount it as well, and that will need to be done before you shut down every time.

Startup in safe mode and then reboot. The warning will be gone. One of the add-ons is incompatible, misconfigured, or requires manual intervention to correctly terminate.

Thank you very much.
