Unraid will not boot (Solved)

Featured Replies

I have been testing some new hardware that I got and had my box plugged directly into the outlet without a surge protector. The power went out and now when I try to boot I get this and it hangs. I’ve tried booting in safemode and in safemode without GUI and get the same thing. I’ve tried the memtest boot option and it just restarts. Can anyone tell me what this means? I’ve been running unraid 6.6.0.

I copied everything from my usb drive to my computer, then used the usb creator to do a fresh install of 6.6.1. I then copied my config folder from my computer to the usb drive and replaced what was there. I ran the make bootable file and put it back in and everything booted right up. It's now running a parity check but I just got a notification saying usb drive read-write error. How can I fix this?2126693826_ScreenShot2018-10-07at11_24_26PM.png.15311e9b2969471bd2b0dc654637fc79.png

This message means that you have file system corruption on the USB drive or that it is starting to fail.   As you have just created it the latter seems the more likely.

I guess I’ll order a new disk. Is there anything I can try in the mean time? Maybe shut down unraid and pop the disk in my laptop and do a repair in disk utility?

 

It still seems to be running fine, can I just leave it running until the new disk comes in? I don’t want my server to be down for several days.

You can try doing a repair on your laptop.    Be aware, though, that any configuration changes you make may well not be saved.

 

if ordering a replacement it is worth noting that USB2 drives tend to be less problematic than USB3 ones.    There is no performance need for USB3 as after the initial load Unraid runs from RAM only accessing the USB drive to load/save configuration information.

Yesterday I went to the main page and to flash, then back up flash. I shut the server down and pulled the usb drive, put it in my mac and ran first aid, it found some errors and fixed them. I put the usb back in and powered it back up, it booted up without issue and proceeded to start a parity check. I shut it back down and pulled the drive, formatted it and then copied the data from the backup that I downloaded before I originally shut it down. I ran make bootable and then put the usb back in and started it back up. It booted up and started a parity check again. All my plug-ins and dockers were there and everything looked just like it did before I shut it down. It has run all day and my parity check finished this morning, so far no errors in the error log and no read/write errors. I'm no sure if it was just a fluke or the drive is really going bad, I'll keep an eye on it. Thanks everyone for your help!!
