Unmountable: No file system, and parity rebuild running

Featured Replies

so i come home from work to find my server freshly rebooted, parity REBUILD running and one of my drives in a state of ___

at first i think "odd, but but no biggie" but then i see that the unmounted drive is not emulated. is the parity rebuild including the data on the problem drive? or is it being written out of the parity drive?

what should i do?

attached diagnostics and screenshot.

Unmountable doesn't mean unreadable. Your disk needs to be readable to rebuild the parity disk but it doesn't need to be mountable. I'd wait for the rebuild to complete and then try to repair the file system on disk5. Your diagnostics won't give any clue as to why your server rebooted. Is it configured to start up in the event of power returning after an outage?

yes, it's set to start on power on. 

another thing that's out of the ordinary is that the speed of the parity operation is extremely slow - usually a check takes about 25 hours, but now it's reporting an estimated finish in 65 DAYS!

is there some way to see what's holding it up?

Figured it out, it was one of the data drives connected through a card rather than directly to the motherboard. Parity check now running smoothly

ok, parity operation completed and parity is valid.

disk 5 is still unmountable, and btrfs check that i ran in array maintenance mode returns the following:

what's my next step? if i'm willing to accept some data loss, as most of the recent activity on that disk was downloading video content, what's the best course of action to regain access to the filesystem? 

attaching diagnostics (btw, i'm aware of the read errors on disk 2)
