Huh... I thought it was just me and being weird with having 5 disks running preclear at once.

I had the same situation with a disk or 2 (I don't remember, there were 18 of them total) that got to the end of phase 1, but never did phases 2 and 3, and at least one of them started over with the preclear.

It was 9 hours to process these 4TB disks.  Again it wasn't all of them, just a couple.  I didn't take very good notes, i'm sorry.

I tried on 8 different drives, and none of them gave me any errors, but somewhat it happens now and then for some people, and I can't debug if I can't reproduce it. It's frustrating.

Tell ya what i can do for you on my end: pretty sure there's at least 2 disks of mine that didn't get tagged as precleared.  If you want I'll run them through again at some point.  Is there any debug settings I can turn on for you, in case it does it again?

Nothing to do, just send me the logs if it happens.

Ok. Just the preclear logs? or do you want anything else.

You can send me the diagnostics file, you can PM me with it to keep you info more private.

I'll keep it in the back of my mind next time I get a chance. :)

Most of my drives are all the same, HGST Deskstar 3.0 TB drives. It had no problem with the smaller laptop drives, but had this behavior on all of the larger ones, so it seems like it might be related to the size of the drive. I'm rerunning one of them with the updated plugin and I'll see what happens.

Thanks, this will help a lot.

Preclear Plugin (2020.02.12): unsupported Unraid version (6.8.2). Please upgrade your OS/plugin or request proper support at the forum support thread.

Just updated the preclear plugin to the latest and now I get this warning at the top of unraid. Should I have not updated?

If you can, remove it and install it again and send me the output of the installation process.

It's a permission error. Something changed your /tmp permissions, and that broke the terminal emulator the plugin uses to run scripts in the background.

 

Send me the result of this command:

ls -la /tmp

Only other thing that would be using my /tmp folder that I know about is the Plex docker /tmp to /transcode path map. Would this affect it?

Something changed the ownership of your /tmp folder. Try rebooting your server to see if it fixes it.

Ok after a restart it seems to be fine now. Tried a plex transcode and then ran the tmux new-session command again. No permission change and no error. Re-installed the preclear plugin and no Tmux error this time. So still not sure why the folder permission changed. I suppose I'll keep an eye out for it. Thanks for the help!

Update on current status. I saw two similar issues previously and wasn't sure if they were the same. Some of the drives seemed to restart over and over, which is the log posted above. Others seemed to get "stuck" at 99% and I didn't pull the logs to find out if they were showing the same thing. 

 

Fast forward to now, the 3.0 TB drive I started a new preclear on (erase and preclear, 1 cycle, no pre-read) has been running for about 24 hours. It went through 25%, 50%, and 75% and sent email/UI status correctly. It looks like it hit 99% status and stopped earlier this AM. The UI under unassigned drives still says 99%, but one more email/UI update fired around 5 AM saying "Erasing started on ..." with no percentage, so it almost feels like it started over. I'm not seeing the same results in the logs yet, they just seem to have stopped:

Update on current status. I saw two similar issues previously and wasn't sure if they were the same. Some of the drives seemed to restart over and over, which is the log posted above. Others seemed to get "stuck" at 99% and I didn't pull the logs to find out if they were showing the same thing. 

 

Fast forward to now, the 3.0 TB drive I started a new preclear on (erase and preclear, 1 cycle, no pre-read) has been running for about 24 hours. It went through 25%, 50%, and 75% and sent email/UI status correctly. It looks like it hit 99% status and stopped earlier this AM. The UI under unassigned drives still says 99%, but one more email/UI update fired around 5 AM saying "Erasing started on ..." with no percentage, so it almost feels like it started over. I'm not seeing the same results in the logs yet, they just seem to have stopped:

#2020.02.14

- Fix: Write/Erase ops hang if display_pid is reused by the system

I was having the same issue on a HGST 3TB SAS drive, getting stuck at 90% and restarting.

It has finished preclear successfully after the update!

Thanks!
