goinsnoopin Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I just reformatted my flash drive and did a clean install of Unraid 6.1.7. So I am completely stock and have not installed any plugins, dockers or VMs. The only changes I have made is to the networking section to setup a static IP and changed my workgroup name in the SMB settings. I went through and assigned all of my drives including my cache drive and started the array. Everything was fine. I then rebooted the array and when the main screen came up in the webgui...the cache drive slot showed as unassigned. When I looked at the syslog is says no device...see attached diagnostics. The second diagnostic is after I reassigned the cache drive and started the array. It just seems weird to me that the cache drive is not staying assigned??? tower-diagnostics-20160125-0730.zip tower-diagnostics-20160125-0744.zip Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Something in your syslog I don't recall seeing before. Your flash is sda, but Jan 25 07:43:48 Tower emhttp: get_device_size: open: No medium found Jan 25 07:43:48 Tower emhttp: device /dev/sdb problem getting size Jan 25 07:43:48 Tower emhttp: get_device_size: open: No medium found Jan 25 07:43:48 Tower emhttp: device /dev/sdc problem getting size Jan 25 07:43:48 Tower emhttp: get_device_size: open: No medium found Jan 25 07:43:48 Tower emhttp: device /dev/sdd problem getting size what are sdb,sdc,sdd? Then your actual drives start at sde. Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 If you are using chrome, do it with another browser, the whole process, assign cache, start array, stop array and reboot, if it sticks you can go back to chrome. Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 what are sdb,sdc,sdd? Then your actual drives start at sde. Probably a cardreader Quote Link to comment
goinsnoopin Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 Definitely a card reader. This is a clean install and I have a card reader plugged into a PCIe USB card that I normally passthrough to a VM and did not set my pci-stub in the syslinux.cfg file yet. I am using chrome...so I will try with another browser. Attached are screenshots with all drives assigned and array running then second is after a reboot. Quote Link to comment
goinsnoopin Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 Johnie.Black, I followed your suggestion and used firefox and everything works as it should. The cache drive stays assigned. I have tested a reboot cycle as well as a powerdown then restart. Do you know why this happens with Chrome? I dont remember seeing any warnings about this on the forums. Thanks for your help!

JorgeB Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I don’t know the reason, I know it always happens to me (and no, it’s not an ad-blocker). Quote Link to comment
goinsnoopin Posted January 26, 2016 Author Share Posted January 26, 2016 Marking this thread as solved...not sure I understand why...but Johnie.black's suggestion of using another browser has definitely worked. Thanks Johnie! Dan Quote Link to comment
