March 15, 20179 yr Community Expert When it fails to mount a disk it shows it as unmountable. A disk can be unmountable because it has never been formatted and so has no filesystem, or it could be unmountable because the filesystem has corruption that prevents it from mounting. So it presents you with an opportunity to format, which you must NOT do if you intend to repair the filesytem. I see you're running several plugins instead of dockiers. You might boot in SAFE mode until you get this squared.

So I have placed the array into maintenance mode and issued reiserfsck --rebuild-tree /dev/md3 from the console... and so far... so good... Thanks for the help trurl... I hope this works out... and if it does... lesson learned... better to use the console for these type of issues...
March 16, 20179 yr Author Just a quick question... the check has now been running for around 18h how... and at the very end the program says.... finished... finished... but both it and the cache drive are spinning and running... and I have confirmed through the web interface that data is still being written to both... but I have yet to get a command prompt... it's as if the program is still doing something or waiting for something... How do you know that the process is complete? should I drop the process control-z out of it and start the array? Thanks for the assist guys.... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ root@Tower:/dev/disk/by-id# reiserfsck --rebuild-tree /dev/md3 reiserfsck 3.6.24 ************************************************************* ** Do not run the program with --rebuild-tree unless ** ** something is broken and MAKE A BACKUP before using it. ** ** If you have bad sectors on a drive it is usually a bad ** ** idea to continue using it.

Johnnie... I would agree with you... Well as of this morning... the rebuild was complete... But the cache drive is now... Missing... as in the the system no longer sees that HD as being attached to the computer... Weird... I will pull that HD and format it to confirm that it is non functional... Such a weird thing to have happen...

Formatting in another system may be a way to test the drive, but you can't use a drive formatted in another system in unRAID. And if the problem is not the drive, then you may still have a problem seeing it in your unRAID hardware. Does the BIOS in your unRAID hardware see the drive?
