July 30, 201510 yr I had a power outage this evening while I wasn't at home. As far as I know, my server did a clean shutdown via UPS, but when I look at my main screen, it says "Parity has not been checked yet" but all my drives (parity included) are green. What gives? Should I be concerned? My monthly parity check will kick-off in a couple days, regardless.
July 30, 201510 yr IIRC, that means due to the reboot it has no record of the last parity check. It does not persist through a reboot. If all green no worries.
July 30, 201510 yr It means Parity has not been checked. The status is saved to the flash drive and is retained across reboots.
July 31, 201510 yr Author "means due to the reboot it has no record of the last parity check. It does not persist through a reboot." and "means Parity has not been checked. The status is saved to the flash drive and is retained across reboots." I've rebooted before and not seen this message. I also know my parity was checked and was good earlier in the week. And I'm inclined to think it wasn't a dirty shutdown. Those typically launch right into a parity check. So, I guess my system is like mine: confused.
July 31, 201510 yr I have run two parity checks in the past 3 days with having removed 2 drives from the array (one at a time). This included multiple reboots including one last one to clear up a Plex issue. My Dashboard shows the following message: Parity is valid Parity has not been checked yet.
July 31, 201510 yr Author I'm taking the Homer approach. Unless I hear a bad sound or see a NON-GREEN ball, woohoo.
