January 27, 201016 yr 4.5-beta13 MD1510 Today I could not reach the shares. I tried to stop the array but it just says "Unmounting".... What should I do???
January 27, 201016 yr Author After restart the main webui says just 2 disks mounted. And if using unmenu it says that parity check is ongoing and that just 6 of 15 disk mounted. What's happening??? Can't get the syslog via telnet, http://tower/log/syslog or unmenu Panic starts to set in
January 28, 201016 yr If the array said "un-mounting, it indicates one or more of your disks were "busy" They could be busy because a process had a file open on one or more of of them, or because a process was using one of them as its current directory. It could even be you if you "cd'd to /mnt/disk1, it would keep disk1 busy until you logged off (oor cd'd elsewhere) It sounds like you panicked and hit the reset button. When re-starting the disks will each need to re-play the transactions you interrupted earlier. Then they will mount. Just hit "refresh" on the main gui now, it should update. Can you log in at the system console? Just don't panic, and don't press any "Format" button, and don't press any button other than "Start" Post a syslog. Instructions on how to grab one at the system console in the wiki .
January 28, 201016 yr Author Thanks for your reply! It actually said unmounting for well over 2 hours before I posted here. And as I wrote all shares where gone before I hit the stop array button. The shares never gone missing before. So something was very wrong for sure. I tried 3 ways of grabbing the syslog, via Telnet (as described in the wiki), via http://tower/log/syslog and via unmenu. But nothing. Anyway, after about 10 minutes all disks got mounted and a parity check finished without errors. I will try to restart now and see if it can do a clean reboot. Also attached syslog syslog-2010-01-28.txt
