If you just type 'mount' without any arguments, it will show what's mounted where.

shfs on /mnt/user type fuse.shfs (rw,nosuid,nodev)

OK,  now for a few questions...

 

If the two disk partitions are not mounted, and the reeiserfsck tests show they have no file system corruption, then the error output from that last attempt to mount the raw partitions is puzzling.

 

I'm suspecting the "md" device is keeping the partitions "locked" but it could be the mount points are busy and the error message is just misleading.

 

Let just try an alternate mount point first

 

mkdir /tmp/xyz

mount -t reiserfs -o noatime,nodiratime /dev/sdb1 /tmp/xyx

 

If it fails with the same error message, then it is the partition that is already in use by the "md" device.

 

To stop the "md" device we'll need to un-mount the disks that it could mount, then unload the device.

The following commands are extracted from your syslog.

 

the "mount" command you ran showed disk2,3 and 5 mounted, so to un-mount those disks

 

umount /mnt/disk2

umount /mnt/disk3

umount /mnt/disk5

If they were able to be un-mounted, then to un-load the "md" module

rmmod md-mod

 

Once the "md" device is un-loaded, we can re-try the mount of the raw disk partitions.

mount -t reiserfs -o noatime,nodiratime /dev/sdb1 /mnt/disk1

 

mount -t reiserfs -o noatime,nodiratime /dev/sde1 /mnt/disk4

 

It that works, then I'm going to be really confused.  But let's see what happens.  the file-systems look clean, but your "mount" is failing... I see you are running bubbaRAID, so you will get little support from lime-tech when booting that kernel.  you might want to consider reverting back to a stock unRAID until your disks are back online. 

 

If the disks can be mounted, then to un-mount them type:

umount /mnt/disk1

umount /mnt/disk4

To re-load the "md" kernel module type:

modprobe md-mod super=/boot/config/super.dat slots=8,48,8,64,8,80,8,0,8,16,8,32,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0

 

To re-mount the partitions on the "md" devices

mount -t reiserfs -o noatime,nodiratime /dev/md1 /mnt/disk1

mount -t reiserfs -o noatime,nodiratime /dev/md2 /mnt/disk2

mount -t reiserfs -o noatime,nodiratime /dev/md3 /mnt/disk3

mount -t reiserfs -o noatime,nodiratime /dev/md4 /mnt/disk4

mount -t reiserfs -o noatime,nodiratime /dev/md5 /mnt/disk5

heres the ouput, they didnt mount :(

ill stop using bubbaraid, dont really need to be running now anyway

  • Author

heres a new log with bubbaraid disabled, i had to start unmenu to get the log, hope that wont effect anything. (but the server started with it not running and drives still showed up as unformatted)

syslog-2010-01-27.txt

The mkdir worked.

root@Tower:~# mkdir /tmp/xyz

The mount failed because I made a typo, and you did not spot it.   Your target to mount the partition should have been /tmp/xyz

root@Tower:~# mount -t reiserfs -o noatime,nodiratime /dev/sdb1 /tmp/xyx

It knew xyx did not exist... (sorry, but the x and z are adjacent on my keyboard, and my poor typing got me)

mount: mount point /tmp/xyx does not exist

This however points me to the partition being locked by the "md" driver.

root@Tower:~# mount -t reiserfs -o noatime,nodiratime /dev/sdb1 /tmp/xyz

mount: /dev/sdb1 already mounted or /tmp/xyz busy

root@Tower:~# umount /mnt/disk2

root@Tower:~# umount /mnt/disk3

root@Tower:~# umount /mnt/disk5

un-loading the "md" drive should have released the lock... (I'm just guessing here, but sounds good)

root@Tower:~# rmmod md-mod

But it looks like it did not.     Darn....

root@Tower:~# mount -t reiserfs -o noatime,nodiratime /dev/sdb1 /mnt/disk1

mount: /dev/sdb1 already mounted or /mnt/disk1 busy

It looks like /mnt/disk4 does not exist.  You would need to create it first with "mkdir /mnt/disk4" and try once more.

root@Tower:~# mount -t reiserfs -o noatime,nodiratime /dev/sde1 /mnt/disk4

mount: mount point /mnt/disk4 does not exist

root@Tower:~#

 

Interesting try... but no proof either way.  not so far.

heres the new output (sorry i missed the fact disk4 dir didnt exist - rush to get to work :))

root@Tower:~# mkdir /mnt/disk4
root@Tower:~# mount -t reiserfs -o noatime,nodiratime /dev/sde1 /mnt/disk4

so what can i try next?
