Unmountable Drive

I started receiving a message of Unmountable: no file system present on a drive. It was formatted and working previously. It shows the file system as xfs. What should I do to fix this?

This is covered here in the online documentation.  
 

 If anything is unclear ask questions before proceeding as you do not want to lose data through taking inappropriate action.  If asking further questions please also post your system diagnostics zip file (obtained via Tools->Diagnostics) so we can see the current state of your system.

Run again without -n or nothing will be done, if it asks for -L use it.

Now just start the array and it should mount normally, if it doesn't please post diags.

  • Community Expert

You have disk2 mounted as an unsigned device, you can't have the same disk mounted twice, though I wounder how UD mounted an array disk.

 

Unmount the disk in UD and re-start the array, you should then run a parity check.

I'm assuming UD means Unassigned Devices? The disk does not show up under there. It is only showing under Array Devices with a green light.

  • Community Expert

It is mounted:

Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1       3.7T   27G  3.7T   1% /mnt/disks/ST4000DM000-1F2168_S301E7YF

If you can0't unmount reboot

Was curious about this, looking at the syslog on December 13th that disk dropped offline ( or was disconnected), you then started the array without disk2, and Unraid emulated it, after that on December 31st the disk come back online and it was mounted with UD, then you used the same disk to rebuild disk2, Unraid doesn't check if disks are mounted with UD before rebuilding.

I had to remove it from the array to make it show up under UD. I unmounted it from UD. I put it back in the array. It is no longer giving the error. Thank you!

Forgot to mention, USB disks are not recommend as array devices, they are prone to disconnects.
