September 13, 20178 yr Hi There I recently replaced a failing 500gb drive with a 2tb drive. Data rebuild appeared to run fine however after the rebuild completed the disk is now saying Unmountable: Invalid partition I have done nothing after the data rebuild as i don't want to lose the data that was on the old drive and in theory was rebuilt on the new drive. syslog attached. Any ideas on what to try to fix this? diagnostics-20170913-1132.zip
September 13, 20178 yr You should post this in the prerelease for rc8q. There have been some issues reported about unmountable disks. A reboot will probably take care of the problem, but please report it so LT can work on a fix.

September 13, 20178 yr Community Expert I'm going to write here another option so I can link this thread if anyone else runs into this issue before rc9 is released and doesn't want or can't downgrade to rc7: -stop the array -unassign the rebuilt (unmountable) disk -start the array (the emulated disk will still be unmountable, it's OK for now) -use the unassigned devices plugin to format the replacement disk (make sure you're using the latest version of the plugin) -stop the array -re-assign the replacement disk -start the array to rebuild again, disk will now mount normally during and after the rebuild.
