yellow triangle, data is invalid started yesterday


Recommended Posts

i noticed last night one of my drives had a yellow triangle next to it. I rebooted the server without saving my syslog (i know i know). It came back up, and now the drive just has a gray triangle next to it. I can browse the drive from my computer.

 

I don't have the buttons to do a parity check on the web interface so not sure where to go from here.

 

I do have a piece of the my old log though. Before I rebooted, the drive in question had this in the log. ATA_OP e3 ioctl error: -5

 

After upgrading to 6.0-beta 15 I did notice this drive was the last drive to spin down for some reason.

 

attached is my current syslog and here is my SMART report.

Various comments -

 

* Smart report looks great, except for one bazaar number, probably harmless.  Power on hours is 8333, but it says you ran a SMART short test at 53090 hours!  Disk 6 is probably fine.

 

* The SATA support for 2 onboard SATA ports is configured in your BIOS settings to be in IDE emulation mode.  The connected drives for those ports just happen to be your Parity drive and Disk 1!  When you next reboot, go into the BIOS settings, locate the SATA configuration, and select a native SATA mode, preferably AHCI, anything but an IDE emulation mode.  One of the bad things about IDE handling is that it treats disks in pairs per channel, and if something goes wrong with one drive on a channel, it may cause trouble for both drives.  In your case, it is particularly confused, because it thinks the "IDE cables" to them are 40 wire, so it has slowed access to both drives down to UDMA/33, which will result in very slow reads and writes to those disks.  Turning on a native SATA mode like AHCI will cause each drive to be independent of the others, and full speed.

 

May  6 22:36:12 Tower logger: plugin: installing: /boot/config/plugins/dynamix.plg

May  6 22:36:12 Tower logger: plugin: not installing older version

* The above is sometimes evidence that there may be v5 files still installed, which may cause strange problems.  You may want to review the upgrade instructions in the Upgrading to UnRAID v6 guide, to make sure that no remnants of v5 remain.

 

Before I rebooted, the drive in question had this in the log. ATA_OP e3 ioctl error: -5

* Unfortunately, I need to see the context for the error, what subsystem is reporting it, and what devices are associated with it.  I suspect it's the controller, but don't know for sure.  SAS cards give us problems now and then.

 

* There's something funny about this SAS controller, because it's taking way too long to initialize.  The mvsas module loads very quickly, but the actual drive setup starts after everything else is complete, then takes quite awhile working on each drive.  Disk 6 just happens to be connected to the 8th and last port on this controller, which means it was the last drive of all to be set up, almost too late to be included in the drive inventory!  That's not its fault.  I suspect if you reconnected it to an onboard port or one of the 2 port cards, it would show no problems at all.

 

* The problem now is that it was dropped last time, for unknown reasons, but probably the controllers fault not the drives fault.  So unRAID is simulating it, a virtual Disk 6.  But since a drive is considered missing from the array, you cannot do a parity check, which requires all drives online.  There are several methods to correct this.  It's important now to know what writes have taken place to the array.  If you are absolutely sure that nothing has been written or changed on Disk 6, then what I personally would do is note the current drive assignments, do a 'New Config', reassign the drives exactly as they are now, then click the 'Parity is valid' (or however it is worded) box, and the array should be fine.  Then run a parity check (if not already running) to correct a few file system housekeeping bits (you should see a few parity corrections).  HOWEVER, there are users who consider that dangerous.  So if you suspect anything might have been written to the drive since it was disabled, and/or you want to handle this the safest way, then unassign Disk 6, start then stop the array, reassign Disk 6, then start the array and let unRAID rebuild Disk 6 onto itself.

 

I'd wait a little, in case others have additional comments or corrections to anything I have suggested.  Do tell us though whether Disk 6 may have been written to recently.

Thanks for that info. I will do that. I didn't realize it was set to that. It has been like 5/6 years since I paid attention to the bios or the booting up process....

 

so that smart report, ignore it. It wasn't for the the drive in question which is disk14. I could have sworn I did the smart report for that drive but I guess I mistyped it and never noticed until you mentioned it. Sorry about that. I will get the correct report and post it.

when your not paying attention  p and q look the same.....

 

Here is the correct smart report, once again sorry for that.

I don't currently but I can get one. Would just need to wait the 2 days it takes to preclear it.

 

I always said I need to buy an extra drive to keep as a spare but i never do.

 

The drive was the last drive installed so it might be under warranty still. I never had a data drive fail yet. I had my parity drive fail on me before.

I would preclear a new drive then rebuild. After you get everything working again, you can try preclearing the problem drive to see if the pending sectors and offline uncorrectable will clear up. If so then you may be able to use it again. If not then maybe you can return it under warranty.

 

Have you ever done a rebuild?

When I replaced my original parity drive a few months later my new parity drive failed so I think I had to do a rebuild then. That was like 2 years ago so don't really remember :) .

Just want to mention that formatting a drive is NEVER part of the rebuild process. Somehow people have gotten the idea that the first thing they need to do with any disk before they can use it is format it. Several have managed to coax the gui into letting them format the drive they need to rebuild or rebuild onto, then they can't rebuild.

 

If you have any questions, be sure to ask.
