itimpi Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 Not sure if you can verify it simply by looking at anything. You can, however, select a disk and then the Build option. If it is really up-to-date it will not find anything to do. Quote Link to comment

When I came to look at status it shows all 7 disks have been built. What can I look at to verify whether this is the case or not? You need select all disk and perform export, hash check were base on the exported file. Quote Link to comment

I can't export until they are all built though. Anyway, I have built and exported all now. Looked at it today and I see an orange circle on disk 1 build. I thought I remember seeing a legend somewhere, but I can't find it. What does the orange circle mean? Quote Link to comment
Vr2Io Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Orange circle means something were update but haven't export or build. Quote Link to comment

I Enjoy Creating Videos Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 Hello everyone a few weeks back I installed this Dynamix File Integrity plugin and have been really enjoying it on my Unraid Build V6.7.2 but a few days ago i thought i would upgrade to V6.8.0 that is when i noticed that when i try to set the time for it to start the scan and it does not turn on and scan at that time that i set it to when using the "File Integrity Settings" page it does not seem to work not sure why, i thought i must be doing something wrong so i tried many times but it doesn't seem to work for some reason so i though maybe it was the unraid build V6.8.0 so i down graded it back to V6.7.2 and it all works just fine again so then i upgraded it again to V6.8.0 and it does not work again, anyways i'm sure someone has reported this already but in case not i thought i would write this and let everyone know. p.s i have a question when running this Dynamix file integrity plugin when it gets done say that it finds corrupt files how would i be able to know witch files went bad so i can fix them thank you? "I want to say thanks to everyone that has made Unraid and all the wonderful plugins for it! Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas! 🎄🎁 JP Quote Link to comment
_Shorty Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 If you read a few of the recent posts it would seem to indicate that your files are likely just fine and the plugin might not be workng properly. 1 Quote Link to comment
I Enjoy Creating Videos Posted December 24, 2019 Share Posted December 24, 2019 Ok Thank you for your reply is there a way i could read more about this i'm kinda new to this forms stuff and not very good at it is there some program that i can use to double check my files to make sure they don't have file corruptions like when it would finish it had a SHA2 hash file and i would download it and then make it a .txt extention so i could read it but its just a bunch of files with hash's i need a way to know witch file to check to find what one to fix if it is corrupt i hope this makes sense Thanks for the help Quote Link to comment
_Shorty Posted December 25, 2019 Share Posted December 25, 2019 Frankly, I would be more inclined to believe you have exactly zero corrupt files, and are simply one of a few of us that are reporting that the plugin doesn't seem to behave properly for. Files don't usually go corrupt on people when simply sitting on a hard drive. The hard drive's electronics work with algorithms designed to detect whether or not a read was successful. They can detect when a read was faulty and the data was corrupt. If you are not seeing the drive reporting that there have been read errors, I would not worry about whether or not your data is corrupt. It likely isn't if no read errors are being reported. For whatever reason, the plugin doesn't seem to be behaving properly for everyone that has tried it. Some of us, perhaps a very small minority, have seen reports of corruption from the plugin, but we also have other hashes from other hashing tools on hand that say the files haven't actually changed. The plugin is saying they have changed, but since the other hashing tools are still reporting the original hashes for those files, it stands to reason that the files have not changed and that something is behaving incorrectly with the plugin. If the other hash tools were giving different results then we might suspect actual file corruption. But with other hash tools still agreeing with previously established hashes, that narrows it down to the plugin being the only one misbehaving. If you're not getting read errors reported from the hard drive, I wouldn't worry about it, and I'd simply uninstall the plugin. It would be nice to have an automated hashing system in place, but if it doesn't seem to be working properly it isn't of much use. 1 Quote Link to comment

robobub Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 So while it was a conscious decision to exclude cache, but me and many others like to store some data longer term on cache. Is it possible to have an option to check cache disks for integrity? It happens to be my only disk without Btrfs, so no scrub is available either Quote Link to comment
_Shorty Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Seems unnecessary to me. I'm sure your drive is taking care of that for you just fine. Not like this tool can be trusted anyway. Quote Link to comment

superloopy1 Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Hi, what does bunker: failed to export with the corresponding xx files skipped messages signify? I've built/rebuilt/lexported and reexported and still get the same files flagged in the syslog ... Quote Link to comment

You need to do a "build" action to add missing keys. Quote Link to comment
superloopy1 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 (edited) Thanks but I mentioned that i had already done that a number of times, including re-exporting following each build to check against. Seems the hashing won't stick with the files? I'm guessing i just relocate the offending files and see if they present problems on a different disk?

As I said, on the previous page, Quote Likely a consequence of the permissions change on the boot flash device [that was introduced with Unraid 6.8] that now prevents scripts from being executed directly from the flash? which was confirmed by the author of the plugin. 1 Quote Link to comment

So just what's wrong? What are the "offending files"? Are they mostly static or are they temporary or updated regularly? The plugin works well for files than seldom change. Temporary files and those that change over time are best excluded. Quote Link to comment
_Shorty Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Sorry, but randomly giving incorrect hash errors on files that haven't changed is not something that I would call working well. Quote Link to comment
