DISK FORMAT AND VAR LOG ISSUES

[shagz]

Hello 

omicron-diagnostics-20200308-1751.zipg Unraid 6.8.2

 

Had an 8tb Drive Fail , was going to replace disk #8 (sdk) with the same size in my array ( picture attached ) 

Having issues trying to format the drive . (I have destructive mode enabled in Unassigned devices plus )

Drive simply fails to format after typing "Yes" in  the field ( also drive hasn't been fully pre-cleared yet ) 

 

To add to this my log quickly fills up to 100 % with fix common problems error coming up ( pic also attached ) 

Not sure if these are related or mutually exclusive as ive had a good run for a while and now things are starting to go south . 

 

Would like to re-build the array but this has me stuck . I have changed the physical SATA cable 1nce on the affected drive 

 

My searches span from possible SATA controller to power supply to just about anything down a rabbit hole 

Your expertise is appreciated . Logs are attached - Thanks in advance !

That's not possible because UD+ is not installed:

statistics.sender.plg - 2017.09.22
unassigned.devices.plg - 2020.02.09
unbalance.plg - v2019.10.26
unRAIDServer.plg - 6.8.2

You are having disk issues.  This is only a sample of the log:

Recommendations:

• Solve the disk issues before you do anything else to the array.  You'll make it worse.  Check cabling and disk controller.
• Update your plugins.  You are way behind.

Your disks are also running pretty hot.

Thanks for the insight 

 

I have purchased a new SATA controller and new SATA cord to the affected drive 

UD+ was installed and run at a later date than the 1st two logs , plugins updated as suggested

Still at the same crossroads trying to get the WDC tb drive to format to rebuild parity .

 

@dlandon two new logs have been added . Any suggestions ?

Parity does not have a filesystem so there is no point in formatting it.

 

Looks like it's still having problems communicating with that disk.

Any recommendations as to the next step ?

Errors start as soon as the disk is initialized, could be a connection problem (replace/swap) cables or it could be the controller, Marvell controllers are not recommended for Unraid.
