clean install: questions regarding several messages/errors I get

Featured Replies

Hi,

 

I did a clean install of latest stable 6.2. After that I observed several things and want to make sure everything this is normal and not an error I should solve.

 

1) I did inmediatly a parity-check and it showed 9 errors (I attach my syslog). I installed fix common problems and it did show no errors. Can anyone tell me if there is anything to worry about?

 

2) After that I run a SMART extended self-test on Disk 4 because I got a pop up showing a warning (reallocated sector ct is 42). It completed with no errors (I attach the result). Is there anything to worry about?

 

3) When I start Unraid I get this message:

default via 192.168.0.1 dev br0 linkdown
192.168.0.1/24 dev br0 proto kernel  scope link src 192.168.0.106 linkdown

I am able to connect to unraid´s gui from another computer. Is this normal?

 

4) This device is a pci ethernet adapter. What is wrong with it?

5) fix common problems reports:

Disk disk7 has an HPA partition enabled on it

It is a data disk, anything I should do?

2. A few reallocated blocks are not a problem in themselves so keep an eye on the number and if it holds steady you can keep using the disk. If the number increases over time you'll need to replace the disk. If it's under warranty you may want to RMA it anyway.

 

3. The Ethernet link is down or intermittent so check your cable and switch port.

 

5. As it's a data disk it doesn't really matter. An HPA reserves a small part of the disk capacity, making it slightly smaller than standard. It's only an issue if you want to use it as a parity disk, which can't be smaller than the largest data disk.

 

For the rest please post your complete diagnostics zip, not just fragments.

 

1) I did inmediatly a parity-check and it showed 9 errors (I attach my syslog).

1) The only correct number of parity errors is exactly zero. You should do another parity check.

 

And you didn't attach your syslog, you only attached SMART for one disk. And we don't want either. We want your complete diagnostics. Always go to Tools - Diagnostics and post your complete diagnostics zip.

 

2) After that I run a SMART extended self-test on Disk 4 because I got a pop up showing a warning (reallocated sector ct is 42). It completed with no errors (I attach the result). Is there anything to worry about?

42 is a little high but just keep an eye on it and if it starts to increase you should replace.

...

5) fix common problems reports:

Search the forum for HPA. See How to Search sticky linked in my sig.

 

HPA isn't much to worry about unless you try to use the disk as parity since it will not be as large as similar drives and parity must be at least as large as your largest data disk.

Here is the full diagnostics zip.

 

Regarding "3. The Ethernet link is down or intermittent so check your cable and switch port" I just changed tha cable and tried a new one, and I still get the same message. What other things should I check?

 

Thx for support.

wasn't a result of you replacing the cable (maybe not, as it's dated yesterday), I'd try a different switch port.

4. What Ethernet adapter is this? The only one I see that's recognised by your system is the onboard Realtek. Are you trying to use an unsupported one?

 

  • Author

I have been using before a pci ethernet adapter. When I did the clean install I tried the realtek onboard one. Because I got the mentioned linkdown error, I tried the previous pci ethernet adapter, BUT I got no connection at all. I got this error: "Device "eth0" does not exist". So I went back to the onboard one.

You may need to disable the motherboard ethernet in the BIOS to get unRAID to use the other one.

Tell me more about it - make/model number. Did it work with a previous version of unRAID? It's either faulty or unsupported. I don't see the error messages you pasted into your original post so have you removed it now?

  • Author

When i get back home i try both adapters and will post proper diagnostics for each one.

The only one working (I mean not showing this error: Device "eth0" does not exist) is the onboard realtek one. My MB is M5A99FX PRO R2.0, so the ethernet adapter is Realtek 8111F.

It don´t understand why it is working but unraid is showing:

default via 192.168.0.1 dev br0 linkdown
192.168.0.1/24 dev br0 proto kernel  scope link src 192.168.0.106 linkdown

?

I can´t really tell if this was already happening before, since I did not experience any problems.

I will keep an eye on it in case I get any network problems.

 

Regarding the errors shown in my last parity check I will run a new one and post the results.

After running a parity check no errors were found now. Good news.

/mnt/user is the contents of the array including the cache drive

/mnt/user0 is the contents of the array excluding the cache drive.

 

Its utilized by mover to move stuff back and forth to the cache drive depending upon your share settings.

Thx squid!

So if I have data stored in my cache drive when I type /mnt/user my cache disk should show up and show the data stored, but I only get:

root@Tower:/mnt/user# ls
conciertos/  documentales/  media\ personal/  series/
data/        downloads/     movies/           system/

I can only access the cache disk typing /mnt/cache.

What should I take into account to see the contents of my cache drive when I type /mnt/user?

The disk4 errors grow non stop:

unRAID Disk 4 SMART health [5]: 02-02-2017 20:06
Warning [TOWER] - reallocated sector ct is 110
ST32000542AS_9XW07WDC (sdb)

Last friday it showed "reallocated sector 85"!

I guess I need to change the disk, right?

Rgds.

Yes. Have you ever replaced a disk before? Please let us know if you are unsure what to do.
  • Author

Hi, I think is this one, right?:

The procedure

    If you are running a very old version of unRAID, such as v4.7 or older, skip down to the next section. 

    Stop the array
    Unassign the old drive if still assigned (to unassign, set it to No Device)
    Power down
    [ Optional ] Pull the old drive (you may want to leave it installed for Preclearing or testing)
    Install the new drive
    Power on
    Assign the new drive in the slot of the old drive
    Go to the Main -> Array Operation section
    Put a check in the Yes, I'm sure checkbox (next to the information indicating the drive will be rebuilt), and click the Start button
    The rebuild will begin, with hefty disk activity on all drives, lots of writes on the new drive and lots of reads on all other drives

    All of the contents of the old drive will be copied onto the new drive, making it an exact replacement, except possibly with more capacity than the old drive.
