runraid Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 This is the second time that this has happened in 4 days. It's happened across two different USB sticks (brand new ones). I assume I need to replace the USB stick yet again?

trurl Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 Could be bad flash drive, maybe a port problem, probably just corrupted. Put it in your PC and let it checkdisk. Are you shutting your server down from the webUI? If not then that is probably the cause. Quote Link to comment
runraid Posted April 10, 2017 Author Share Posted April 10, 2017 I didn't shut the system down at all. Nor was I working on it. I just opened the UI and noticed the errors. The first time this happened, I had the USB stick plugged in the front USB port. The second time (this time), with a brand new, completely different USB stick, I have it plugged in the back USB port. Can I just unplug the USB stick to run checkdisk without my unraid server going down? Quote Link to comment

But, whenever "bread" errors happen it means that unRaid lost track of the flash drive. Net result is that when you plug it back in, if you try and change a setting on the UI that requires a write to the flash, it will fail and be like nothing happened. More noticeably, when you reboot, you will have a parity check happen because the flag that gets set on the flash to indicate a clean shutdown can't get written. My personal opinion is that this is going to wind up being a port thing rather than a stick issue. If its plugged into a USB 3, plug it into a USB 2 (or vice versa) Quote Link to comment

That would be similar to yanking the power as far as the flash drive is concerned. Are you saying you have never shutdown or otherwise powered off your server? 1 Quote Link to comment
runraid Posted April 11, 2017 Author Share Posted April 11, 2017 @trurl I shut it down a day or two ago, but things were fine until today. I did not do anything else on the machine. @Squid I want to say that I have it plugged into a USB 3 port (during both failures). I'll move to a USB 2 port. Quote Link to comment

runraid Posted April 11, 2017 Author Share Posted April 11, 2017 @trurl Yes I did use the UI to shut down. But the odd thing is, when it started back up, it said I did an unclean shutdown and it had to do a full parity check. I might have been ssh'ed into the machine at that time which could have prevented a clean shutdown. For now on, I will stop the array, then do the shut down just to make sure I get a clean shutdown.

runraid Posted April 11, 2017 Author Share Posted April 11, 2017 @Squid when I did a shut down in the UI, at that time I was not having any USB issues. A day later (right now) I've started having the issue Quote Link to comment
runraid Posted April 11, 2017 Author Share Posted April 11, 2017 Also, it's showing as a flash drive and as Unmounted. See the attached pic. Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Yes. Once a bread error occurs, the "boot" flash does not exist anymore, and nothing you can do to bring it back short of a reboot. IE: the flash drive dropped offline (either due to a flash problem or controller (hence why I suggest USB3<-->USB2)), and when it came back it was assigned a different drive letter.

runraid Posted April 11, 2017 Author Share Posted April 11, 2017 Thanks all. I'll do a shutdown, USB swap, then parity check. I'll report back if it this happens again. Quote Link to comment
runraid Posted April 11, 2017 Author Share Posted April 11, 2017 Put the USB drive into my PC and it immediately said it had errors. Running checkdisk now. This is two USB sticks with issues in about 4 days. Quote Link to comment
runraid Posted April 11, 2017 Author Share Posted April 11, 2017 USB stick is now in a USB 2.0 port (was a 3.0). Stopped the array. Rebooted the system. Came up with "unclean shutdown detected". It's now doing a full parity check. Nothing appears to have been lost (I love unraid). > Array Started•Parity-Check 0.1 %• Dynamix webGui v2017.03.30 I'm going to purchase a high quality USB stick. I wish unraid didn't depend on the USB stick though Quote Link to comment
CSmits Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 I have a Kingston DataTraveler Micro 3.1 and got this error. It was USB 3, plugged in a USB 3 port. The server has a history with memory failure, so doing a memtest now... Trying a USB 2 port later. I thought Kingston was pretty high quality USB stick, so I think that's not it... Right?

Today out of nowhere, I got `fat_get_cluster: invalid start cluster` and a reboot failed. So, I guess I'll be requesting another key 😓 Quote Link to comment

haddadnj Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 @runraid / @CSmits -- Any luck with this? I'm running into the same issue with a new flash drive on a USB2 port direct to the MB. Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 If switching ports didn't fix, then you should replace the flash https://unraid.net/blog/top-support-and-forum-questions-answered#:~:text=Head over to Tools -> Registration,section and you are done! Quote Link to comment
haddadnj Posted December 9, 2022 Share Posted December 9, 2022 Thanks! Will do, I just switched ports this morning so I'll give it another day or two to see if I have the issue again. I'll post back with what works for me. Quote Link to comment
arzin3D Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Hi folks, just bought a basic subscription, and I've run into this error three times now while doing initial setup. I pulled the first flash drive, checked it through Windows 10 (no errors), started again with that drive, immediately downloaded a backup, errored out after about an hour. Swapped to a PNY 16GB drive, and about an hour into the new first parity setup it errored out again. My (old af) mobo only has USB 2.0. Anything else I can try?

arzin3D Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Yes, I swapped it to another port late last night, and achieved parity this afternoon! Hooray! Now that I have everything set up and was starting a back up, it happened again. I have two more ports to try, so I will swap to another one. Quote Link to comment
arzin3D Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Got an unclean shutdown error upon restarting in a different port, even though I stopped the array then shut it down through the GUI. See you all in 15 hours after another parity check... Quote Link to comment
