xthursdayx Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Hey folks, I'm having a problem that I hope someone can help me with. I just replaced by my parity drive with a larger driver. Once the parity rebuild finished on the new drive I stopped my array and assigned the former parity drive to an empty spot in my array. I then started my array and agreed to the warning that all the data on that drive would be erased. However since then (a few hours ago now), the array has not started and my unRAID GUI shows "Array Starting". Because the only options available on the GUI are reboot and shutdown, I've tried manually stopping the array from the command line with this command: wget -qO /dev/null http://192.168.1.107:$(lsof -nPc emhttp | grep -Po 'TCP[^\d]*\K\d+')/update.htm?cmdStop=Stop When that didn't work I also rebooted my server, but the situation is the same after reboot. I tried going to Settings > Disk Settings and selecting "no" for "Enable auto start", but after selecting the no option and reloading the page it is always re-enabled. Any ideas on how I can deal with this? Ideally, I would like to add this new (old parity) disk to my array and have it work normally, but right now I would be satisfied just to be able to stop the array. Quote Link to comment

Squid Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 It really looks like its running. I'd reboot powerdown -r and try again. Failing that, reboot into safemode Quote Link to comment
xthursdayx Posted January 4, 2019 Author Share Posted January 4, 2019 So, I tried running a normal powerdown -r reboot, and also reboot into safemode (by moving "label unRAID OS GUI Safe Mode (no plugins)" to the top of /boot/syslinux/syslinux.cfg). I'm still having the same problem... Everything else on the GUI looks fine, I just can't finish starting or stop my array. The bottom of the GUI says "Array Starting • ProFTPd already running." Any other ideas? Quote Link to comment
xthursdayx Posted January 4, 2019 Author Share Posted January 4, 2019 Strangely enough, I can mount my array disks through ssh even though the GUI still says "Array Starting". Quote Link to comment

The disks are already mounted. 19 minutes ago, zandrsn said: reboot into safemode (by moving "label unRAID OS GUI Safe Mode (no plugins)" to the top of /boot/syslinux/syslinux.cfg). That doesn't work. you need to move the line that says Menu Default to that section (or simply select safemood from the boot up screen if you have a KB/monitor attached) Quote Link to comment
xthursdayx Posted January 4, 2019 Author Share Posted January 4, 2019 Just switched it back out of safe mode and rebooted and now the array is online and it's clearing the new (old parity) disk. Not sure what that was all about... Thanks for the support though, that was pretty stressful. Quote Link to comment

As I mentioned above, it's now working. I think the issue was with a script I'd installed through the User Scripts plugin. Quote Link to comment
