June 21, 201610 yr I was moving about 12GB from ShareA to ShareB. Both are located on the same unRAID server. Check back in a few minutes and find that my move is now stuck at 23%. Check the web UI and it's unresponsive. I've noticed before that when I have an issue with my server, it comes down to when I'm in the middle of a large file move. It seems to me that this is file system corruption. That's what it seems like to me, anyway. However, yesterday I went ahead and followed the XFS for Unraid6 instructions from https://lime-technology.com/wiki/index.php/Check_Disk_Filesystems#Drives_formatted_with_XFS. For about 14TB of mixed-sized disks (1TB - 5TB) I didn't have a single test take more than about 3 minutes. None of them created anything in lost+found (I assume, since the folder never got created off /). So...assuming I ran xfs_repair correctly, and I believe I did, what else can I do?
June 21, 201610 yr What version of unRAID are you running? The latest beta has a fix for a problem that sounds like yours.
June 21, 201610 yr Author Looks like I'm running 21, so I'll try 23 when I'm back at home. Is there a good way for me to test this afterwards other than doing a big move and see if I need to power cycle it when it freezes?
June 21, 201610 yr If you are on 21, then I think 23 has the fix you need. I don't know any other way to test it.
June 22, 201610 yr Author Updated to 23. We'll see what happens. Did one large data move and it was fine, but it doesn't happen anywhere every time. So, we'll see.
