April 1, 200719 yr how long should unraid remain "starting" in the command area? all drives assigned and all of that...when i hit start....parity has red light, 2 other drives have green light (which i read is normal) but in the command area...its seems to sit at "starting" does it take a long time? if i close browser window and go back in, it says stopped. configuration valid either way....i tried writing a test file to the array (drag and drop)...and it wouldnt allow it...basically nothing happened... i feel like a noob....and linux always reminds me of a hot chick with a cold sore.....
April 1, 200719 yr Hi cygnusaa. Your post seems to describe the same issue we are discussing over here: http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=592.0 Please take a look and see if you are having the same symptoms as Daniel and me. What hardware config are you running? I assume you are also using V4.0beta7?
April 1, 200719 yr Author yes i read that post but i didnt see a solution... i based my build on another posters success with this MB so i didnt think it would be an issue... i certainly hope im not dead in the water... i mean, for unraid to take me this far and not be able to create the array or mount the drives or whatever the problem is would be maddening....
April 1, 200719 yr Author hmmm...wasnt getting anywhere so i decided to fix the time issue... now i get parity red flashing and disk green flashing.....and its staying that way head monitor on unraid box says /dev/unk no such file or directory at the login prompt oy
April 1, 200719 yr Author ok a reboot fixed the flashing issue still not getting anywhere with the "starting...." thing
April 1, 200719 yr ok a reboot fixed the flashing issue still not getting anywhere with the "starting...." thing I get flashing as well after the server has been powered on for a period of time. Reading the documentation, this just indicates that the drives have been "spun-down". This would explain why a re-boot stops the flashing, as the drives would be spun-up again. I have noted the same issue. ie. Even if I press the [start] button (which of course doesn't actually start anything), the drive status remains flashing, until I reboot.
April 2, 200719 yr ... i feel like a noob....and linux always reminds me of a hot chick with a cold sore..... LOL! Thanks, I needed that this morning. 4.0-beta8 will be posted soon which hopefully will solve some of these device discovery issues.
