Cache Drive Failure

Featured Replies

I'm running 6.8.1 with a 3-drive raid1 cache pool.  I've been getting Errors on Cache Pool messages, and many of the following in the logs:

    BTRFS error (device sdf1): error writing primary super block to device 1

    kernel: sd 7:0:0:0: [sdf] tag#15 UNKNOWN(0x2003) Result: hostbyte=0x04 driverbyte=0x00

    kernel: sd 7:0:0:0: [sdf] tag#15 CDB: opcode=0x2a 2a 00 1d 9b af c0 00 00 58 00

 

The device still shows a green ball on the Main tab, but smartctl returns

    Short INQUIRY response, skip product id
    A mandatory SMART command failed: exiting. To continue, add one or more '-T permissive' options.

 

I'm assuming that the drive needs replacement.

 

My only use of cache is VM's and Dockers, and I have disabled both services, as well as temporarily disabling the mover job.

 

I would like to remove the cache pool from the configuration until I can obtain a replacement.

 

I assume that the procedure is to stop the array and unassign all of the cache drives, and start the array.   Then when the new drive arrives, reassign the 2 good drives and the replacement, and start the array.  Please confirm my procedure.

 

I only have remote access to the server for the next few days.

 

Thanks

Likely a cable/connection issue, see here for more info:
