xtrap225 Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 (edited) so i got this email from the server when i work up this morning.

xtrap225 Posted September 7, 2019 Author Share Posted September 7, 2019 i am working on moving all the data off the drive so i can test it outside of the system with the manufacturers utility, and then i will of course be prepared to replace it, to a certain degree. of course i will likely want to do a parity swap, because all the drives in the storage shelf are 3TB and i certainly don't want to go out and buy a 3TB. one more interesting thing i found... this is the only drive with write-back cache disabled on it. i enabled write-back cache and found this morning it was disabled again. strange. is there a rc.d script that sets the write-back cache using hdparm at startup?

xtrap225 Posted September 7, 2019 Author Share Posted September 7, 2019 oh just to build my trust in the process. im running a NetApp DS4246 and unraid doesn't love. seems to be some communications issues when it comes to for example putting drives to sleep. Quote Link to comment
Squid Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Fair enough, except that the drive is failing it's own self-tests. Nothing to do with communication or the OS Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 16 hours ago, xtrap225 said: NetApp DS4246 If you're using that it might be a good idea to at least connect the drive to normal controller and re-run SMART tests and check attributes, as the NetApp access SATA disks as SAS and that might cause some SMART issues with tests, besides the SMART report not being accessible.

xtrap225 Posted September 9, 2019 Author Share Posted September 9, 2019 so i used Seagate SeaTools for Windows with the drive plugged in via USB3 Asmedia ASM1053E. it passed all the tests in the program. S.M.A.R.T Check, Short Drive Self Test, Short Generic, and Long Generic. my next step is to put it back in the server and run the pre-check 3 times and then rebuild it from parity.

xtrap225 Posted September 9, 2019 Author Share Posted September 9, 2019 may i ask you smart folks, do you know how to re-detect that drive i put in without rebooting? i have a SAS2008 card connecting my desktop computer to that netapp previously discussed.

JorgeB Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 If your server supports hotplug you just need to connected it, but like mentioned it would be best to connect it outside the NetApp enclosure to check SMART report. Quote Link to comment
xtrap225 Posted September 9, 2019 Author Share Posted September 9, 2019 you are correct it was there i just didn't find it due to my own stupidity. is this the smart output?

JorgeB Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 is this the smart output? It is, but not the full SATA report since like mentioned: NetApp access SATA disks as SAS Quote Link to comment
xtrap225 Posted September 9, 2019 Author Share Posted September 9, 2019 okay thanks, once it is done its first pre-clear i will remove it again and plug it in via usb and try that command again. does running a pre-clear 'verify all disk' help increase your confidence in the drive, or is a 'normal' clear sufficient?

JorgeB Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 normal with post read is enough, if that's what you mean, I don't use preclear. Quote Link to comment
xtrap225 Posted September 9, 2019 Author Share Posted September 9, 2019 actually how does this look w/ regards to smart output done through the netapp still but using proper LSI Fusion MPT SAS2 driver settings? does this look like it has the full output?

xtrap225 Posted September 9, 2019 Author Share Posted September 9, 2019 now if i figure out how to properly modify the smartd.conf to properly detect the drives with the -d sat instead of doing DEVICESCAN which is putting in scsi maybe i can have a better unraid smart experience in general. not sure if i should use /dev/sdp or the equivalent /dev/sgX but assuming ill stick with 'sd' here is what my /etc/smartd.conf would look like. #DEVICESCAN # Monitor LSI's disk SMART through SCSI generic /dev/sdb -d sat -a -s L/../../3/02 /dev/sdc -d sat -a -s L/../../3/03 /dev/sdd -d sat -a -s L/../../3/04 /dev/sde -d sat -a -s L/../../3/05 /dev/sdf -d sat -a -s L/../../3/06 /dev/sdg -d sat -a -s L/../../3/07 /dev/sdh -d sat -a -s L/../../3/08 /dev/sdi -d sat -a -s L/../../3/09 /dev/sdj -d sat -a -s L/../../3/10 /dev/sdk -d sat -a -s L/../../3/11 /dev/sdl -d sat -a -s L/../../3/12 /dev/sdm -d sat -a -s L/../../3/13 /dev/sdn -d sat -a -s L/../../3/14 /dev/sdo -d sat -a -s L/../../3/15 /dev/sdp -d sat -a -s L/../../3/16 /dev/sdq -d sat -a -s L/../../3/17 /dev/sdr -d sat -a -s L/../../3/18 /dev/sds -d sat -a -s L/../../3/19 /dev/sdt -d sat -a -s L/../../3/20 /dev/sdu -d sat -a -s L/../../3/21 /dev/sdv -d sat -a -s L/../../3/22 /dev/sdw -d sat -a -s L/../../3/23 /dev/sdx -d sat -a -s L/../../3/24 /dev/sdy -d sat -a -s L/../../3/25 /dev/sdz -d sat -a -s L/../../3/26 Quote Link to comment
xtrap225 Posted September 9, 2019 Author Share Posted September 9, 2019 (edited) put that in my go file and started another smartctl long test on a different drive that i have less faith in while witing for my preclear to finish on sdp. sdp and sdm (the one i am running long test on now) are the only drives that when the system is rebooted lose their write-cache setting, and i have to use hdparm -W1 /dev/sdm and sdp to turn it back on. ( i have also now added that to the go file). i am only making note of these things now so that people can benefit form this experience and i will have the commands noted in this thread.

xtrap225 Posted September 18, 2019 Author Share Posted September 18, 2019 i just want to bottom line this for anyone who jumped into their setup like me, because they wanted a bunch of storage on the cheap. i own a NetApp DS4246, with all 3TB sata drives in it. using a Dell LSI SAS 9202-16e 6Gb/s SAS Host Bus Adapter to plug it into a pretty generic Lenovo desktop computer w/ 32GB of ram and an Intel i5-4570. anyway, the big mistake i made for years while running UnRaid was to think that i was supposed to use SAS or SCSI settings on the SMART setup because of the NetApp and/or the HBA, that is NOT correct. pretty obviously when you think about it, SMART is internal to the drives and the drives are SATA so set your SMART up as SATA and it will work perfectly. No extra setup required. (i just thought i would add this final note for anyone reading this thread). Quote Link to comment
itimpi Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 To do this you would need to use Tools->New Config and select the option to keep current assignments. When you return to the main screen you can make any changes you want before starting the array. The default on starting the array will then be to build new parity based on the new disk assignments so do not do this if you have any disabled disks as you would lose the ability to rebuild their contents. If you have exactly the same drives and do not have a parity2 drive you can tick the “Parity is Valid” box before starting the array as the parity1 calculation is independent of disk slot. However parity2 calculation DOES take into account the disk slot so you cannot use that option if you have dual parity. Quote Link to comment
