riopgtmn Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Hey guys, Another question for you all. My array config : 2x 4TB Parity 5x 4TB Data Drives 1x 250GB Samsung 850 Evo SSD Cache Appdata is set to use cache only In my shares, Appdata, Domains and System are showing with orange triangle. I figured I need to run a parity check so I did and this is the result Last check completed on Mon 07 Aug 2017 01:32:09 PM EDT (today), finding 955270102 errors. However my drives are still showing as unprotected. Any advice? Thanks Link to comment
Squid Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Any cache only shares will always be unprotected because it's not part of the array Parity errors: that's an obscene amount of corrections. Did you do anything strange with the drives Previously? Link to comment
riopgtmn Posted August 8, 2017 Author Share Posted August 8, 2017 I replaced Disk1 slot with the cache SSD, Previously that slot was used by another 4TB. Can I reset disk positions, as currently I have no "Disk1" Would it be best to go through the "New config" Tool? Link to comment

Going through New Config would allow you to re-order the drives, but it would also invalidate parity (Parity2 uses disk slot as part of the calculation) so your array would be running unprotected until you had rebuilt parity with the drives in their new positions.

riopgtmn Posted August 10, 2017 Author Share Posted August 10, 2017 So I did a New Config, and rebuilt the Parity, however my Cache, Domains, and System shares are showing as not protected, I understand why cache is not protected, however any clues on Domains and System? Link to comment

Any cache-only share, cache prefer share, or use cache yes share will show as unprotected in a single cache drive system if files in those shares exist on the cache drive. Link to comment

Because they are cache:prefer shares, and thus hosted on the cache drive. Link to comment
riopgtmn Posted August 12, 2017 Author Share Posted August 12, 2017 I understand now, I switched them to No and rebuilt the parity and everything is showing protected other than appdata, which is set to use cache only Link to comment
