LakersFan Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 (edited) Hey folks, I noticed yesterday all of my shares have the orange triangle indicating all or some shares are unprotected. I invoked the mover manually as well as waited overnight for it to automatically do it. I also checked the parity drive and got no errors: Last check completed on Sun 31 Mar 2019 06:46:12 AM PDT (today), finding 0 errors. Duration: 9 hours, 10 minutes, 50 seconds. Average speed: 90.8 MB/sec I'm sure it's got to be a setting, I just don't know where. I recently installed the Unassigned Devices plugin for a flashdrive that I wanted to format as EXT4 (for the dropbox app), but I really didn't mess with any settings when I did that. Any help would be great. I've attached my diagnostics. Thank you! tower-diagnostics-20190331-0845.zip Edited March 31, 2019 by LakersFan Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Only shares that should have the all or some warning are apps and D-----x, Quote Link to comment
LakersFan Posted March 31, 2019 Author Share Posted March 31, 2019 That's my understanding, but they all are showing it. There are no issues when I do a Fix Common Problems scan. And of course a good ol' fashioned reboot didn't help either. 😛 Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Stop the array and post a screenshot of your Main Page This is because Disk 7 isn't valid (in which case the warnings are valid because parity expects disk 7 to be there and it's not) Quote Link to comment
LakersFan Posted March 31, 2019 Author Share Posted March 31, 2019 Can I have it ignore Disk 7 for parity? I really don't care if the stuff it gets corrupted. Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 No. The only way to remove a drive from the array (as you've previously had it installed) is to issue a New Config via Tools Because of that missing disk, all of your data is at risk should a drive die on you. Quote Link to comment
LakersFan Posted March 31, 2019 Author Share Posted March 31, 2019 Ah, man... Well thank you for the help. Guess I will get rid of that Disk. Quote Link to comment
Toobie Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Can I refresh this task? I have the same warning on some of my shares. At least 5 of 13 - Screenshot attached. Is this okay so or do I have to change something in my settings? Regards Tobi Quote Link to comment

Do you have a single cache drive or a cache pool ? Quote Link to comment

Single Cache Drive Appdata - Cache Prefer Backup - Cache Prefer domains - Cache Prefer system - Cache Prefer Xiaomi.Dafang - Cache Yes Quote Link to comment

Single Cache Drive Appdata - Cache Prefer Backup - Cache Prefer domains - Cache Prefer system - Cache Prefer Xiaomi.Dafang - Cache Yes With those settings I would expect all of those shares except the last to show orange as they are on the cache drive which being a single drive has no redundancy. It is quite normal to have those shares on the cache drive for performance reasons and then periodically back up any important files to somewhere on the array. the last one would be because you have written files to it since mover last ran. When mover runs any files for that share on the cache (assuming they are not open in an app) will be moved to the array and the icon change to green. Quote Link to comment

brbones Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 I I have recently been seeing this issue as well, I replaced my parity disk and rebuilt one share is still showing as unprotected...cache is set to yes, but I ran mover before the parity sync... I also recently installed the Unassigned Devices plugin to move files around and do a FS conversion (though I have not started moving anything yet...was waiting until after I have a valid parity). any thoughts?
