I have completed a major overhaul of drives over the past week. I have recently installed docker and krusader and was humming along fine moving UD files back to the server. But on my second go round...

 

1. Krusader crashed (each restart caused numerous error messages)

2. I have lost permissions to copy and edit files in my array. How do I fix this?

3. Docker now fails to start

2. I can not log into CA (server down?)

Your cache disk dropped off line, which explains your docker problems. Like me you have a SASLP-MV8 and they are known to be problematic with unRAID. It seems to be a driver problem and it got worse with unRAID 6.5. I'm going to replace mine with a Dell H310 this week.

 

There has been a problem with CA's feed. I don't know if it's fixed yet.

 

You have a file called /boot/config/._Pro.key (almost certainly created by a Macintosh) which is causing a lot of error messages. You should delete it but be careful not to delete you actual /boot/config/Pro.key file.

Thanks. What about permissions? Why is this impacted?

Since your cache disk is off line any files on it are inaccessible, hence you can't edit them. This includes files in user shares that are on the cache disk, waiting for the mover to transfer them to the array. Files already on the array should still be accessible but I wouldn't trust the SASLP once it has dropped a disk. I'd reboot - in fact, I seem to remember you need to power down and back up again to get it to re-detect a dropped disk.

 

So power down - I usually reseat the cable to the dropped disk at this point but it doesn't do much good unless the connector has actually been disturbed - then power up again and it should be ok until it drops again. Next time it might well be an array disk that gets dropped so after power cycling it will have to rebuild, which is a nuisance. So think about alternative HBAs as a matter of urgency.
