Had a power outage the other day and been working on this since. After the outage I booted the server back up. Now my movies and tv show shares are gone but my appdata share is still there. I found this post here http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=18683.0 and did file system checks on all drives including cache and excluding parity. No corruptions found on any drive. On that post he really doesn't have a solution, the shares just kinda show back up after he does his checks, that unfortunately wasn't the outcome for me. Just like that post if I unassign the cache drive and start the array the shares are all there. Any one have this figured out? Let me know if any logs are needed. I'm on rc16 btw.

 

Thanks

Attach a syslog.

Thanks!

Start up in safe mode.

Thanks!

Does the problem still exist? Do the shares appear without the cache drive?

Yes, the problem exists in safe mode as well. When the cache drive is unassigned, the shares do show up.

 

Thanks!

Are the missing shares configured to use the share? Can you replace the cache drive? Or copy the contents of the cache drive to a disk share and the use the pre-clear utility to clear the disk (or just the MBR) and then re-add the disk.

Not sure what your first question is asking. I moved my appdata folder to an external, then precleared the cache drive and formatted it. I moved the appdata folder back to the cache and started the array, no change. appdata is still the only share that shows up. I unassigned the cache and started the array and the shares are listed (though I forgot about the backup share, so its really 3 of 4 shares are missing). Any ideas?

Attach a syslog. Stay in safe-mode until this is resolved.

The system is not in safe mode. You may need to add the line in my sig to your go file.

Sorry, I knew it was not in safe mode when I posted that, I just misunderstood, took this too literally

Attach a syslog. Stay in safe-mode until this is resolved.

as I attached the log then booted into safe mode. (cut me some slack, i've been running a 100+ fever for the last couple days.) So in safe mode with cache assigned, no shares show up. In safe mode with cache unassigned, the shares show up (not including appdata which shows up when not in safe mode).

update to 5.0.4

no joy. http://paste2.org/9gyMCxGd safe mode, cache assigned.

The previous syslog does not include the start of the array where the problem is indicated. The penultimate log shows the problem:

Try this: http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=28484.0

Ran the getfattr command on all top level directories, on all data disks. Always came back with "getfattr: –d: No such file or directory", which from what I understand means they do not need the rmattrs script run on them.

You can try preparing a clean install and contacting [email protected].

Just to make sure I know what you mean by clean install, Back up my whole usb and note all drive positions. wipe it and install unraid fresh, re-add drives, and remake the shares. does this sound right? am I going to have to shuffle the data into the new shares? if I do need to shuffle the data i'll need to go onto suicide watch. Is there anyone that does remote diagnostics for money? I'm pretty fed up at this point. 

 

And thanks for giving it a shot.

None of the contents of the data disks will be effected. Just assign the parity drive as parity and the data disks in any order you like. The shares will appear with default configurations.

Ok, i'll give it a go today. I've done a clean install before, its just been a while. I'll post back with the outcome.

 

Thanks

Looks like that did it. Thanks again for your help!
