Disk activity light and slow parity check, then freeze

Featured Replies

I thank everyone in advance for their help.

 

On one of my unraid servers will be fine for weeks on end.  Then, seemingly unrelated to any access of the drive shares, the disk activity light will go and stay on.  This seems to correlate to a very slow parity check rate.  After I started the parity check, noticed the slow rate, and tried to stop the array, it froze.  The shares disappeared and I could not get the log.  After a reboot the whole array is fine and passes a parity check.  This is repetitive behavior, and it seems to to happen every 3-4 weeks. 

 

Any ideas?  Can I ignore this?  I'd like to.

You should not ignore it... 

 

Next time you see the slowdown, log in and capture the syslog.  It will likely give the reason for the slowdown and eventual freeze.  Odds are one of your disks is acting up on you... but it might be the cabling to the disk... or something else...

Actually, I lied..... you can ignore it and eventually it will go away... possibly along with some of your data :'( :'(
