I found these on the detailed report == Disk /dev/sdd has NOT been successfully precleared == Postread detected un-expected non-zero bytes on disk== Edited December 28, 2022 by winglam Quote Link to comment

sunwind Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 Is this still the way to preclear? seems awfully convoluted I was hoping it might just be a few gui clicks. Quote Link to comment

Preclears are no longer required to add the drive to your array. The UI will clear the drive for you. If you want to test a new drive by running a few cycles then this is probably the easiest way. It really is just a few clicks. Quote Link to comment

I was actually wanting to 'preclear' some 8 year old drives and see what happened because they may be dying I'm not sure, what else could I do to sort of stress them and see if they fail?

You’ll need to delete whatever partitions are on them using UD+ and then you should see a preclear icon. Once you select it you’ll get options for how many cycles and how often you want notifications. 1 Quote Link to comment
CyberMew Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Hi, I just noticed that the container size is 1.31GB, is this normal? And how can I remove the docker fully without affecting anything else? binhex-preclear 1.31 GB 23.6 MB 22.4 kB Quote Link to comment

nearcatch Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 (edited) For anyone interested, the below is the minimum required to run this container using docker-compose, based off the example docker command from the repo. You can modify it easily to use traefik or another reverse proxy instead of accessing directly by port. Change $CONTDIR to wherever you want to store the logs. preclear: container_name: preclear image: ghcr.io/binhex/arch-preclear:latest restart: unless-stopped privileged: true ports: - 5900:5900 - 6080:6080 environment: - WEBPAGE_TITLE=Preclear - VNC_PASSWORD=mypassword - ENABLE_STARTUP_SCRIPTS=yes - UMASK=000 - PUID=0 - PGID=0 volumes: - $CONTDIR/preclear/config:/config - /boot/config/disk.cfg:/unraid/config/disk.cfg:ro - /boot/config/super.dat:/unraid/config/super.dat:ro - /var/local/emhttp/disks.ini:/unraid/emhttp/disks.ini:ro - /usr/local/sbin/mdcmd:/unraid/mdcmd:ro - /dev/disk/by-id:/unraid/disk/by-id:ro - /boot/config/plugins/dynamix/dynamix.cfg:/unraid/config/plugins/dynamix/dynamix.cfg:ro - /etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf:/unraid/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf:ro - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro Edited April 19 by nearcatch Quote Link to comment

How do I know if it’s still running? It’s as if there’s a terminal window oversized on my screen but I can’t scroll to see any command line? Edit: So I can see from main UnRAID screen the disk is still being written to as it was in the zeroing phase. I just can’t get the terminal window to show up? Edit 2: So I managed to get the terminal window back but no idea what I did exactly. I was trying to set different scaling options to see if that would work but no change. I pinched the screen (working on an iPad) and it was back. Prior I was using AnyDesk on my Windows vm to check progress. Perhaps the combination of pinching between the two caused it?? Well, 2.5 yrs later and I have the same issue...ugh. Will check the ipad to see if I can get it back there. Quote Link to comment
