I was transferring the usually large files from a Windows 7 machine to my unRAID when for the first time since I had W7 I got a nice BSOD followed by a system reset in 10 seconds or so.

 

After rebooting the PC I tried to resume file copy but total commander froze. Forced quit and went into the unRAID share. I tried to delete the incomplete file but TC froze again.

 

I then telnet to unRAID, into MC > /mnt/user/movies and tried to delete the file from there. The file disappeared but a *.fuse_hidden000005d0000000001 file appeared instead with the same file size. Deleted that and another one but ending with 0002 appeared.

 

I tried to stop the array but it got stuck with Unmounting status on all drives. System log shows:

I can access uuMenu and telnet sessions but the array is in a "stuck" mode. Any ideas of what happened and what I should do?

 

Worth mentioning that I've added some 500G drives a couple of days ago that have been successfully cleared. This the the 1st time unRaid has behaved other than perfect since I had it in 2 years now.

 

Thanks for your help,

Andy

 

A drive cannot be un-mounted if it is "busy"

 

Busy could be an open file, or a process whose current directory is on the disk.

 

You can kill all the processes holding the /mnt/user file system busy by typing

fuser -k /mnt/user

 

When you cd into /mnt/user/movies your current directory is /mnt/user/movies and YOU are the one keeping it from being un-mounted.

 

To fix, easy.  cd to /, or to /boot, or log off.

Thanks Joe! I now get it why they call you a Hero member

 

Another thing I noticed is that is that I now have /mnt/user and /mnt/user0 which I dont remember seeing them before. Could this be realated to this incident or is this normal? They both seem to have the same content.

Never mind the last question. Just read is the cache drive which I also installed a couple of days ago.

Actually, /mnt/user0 is a "view" of the user-file system without the contents of the cache drive.  /mnt/user is the merged contents of both the user-shares AND the contents still on the cache drive.

Yes, you are right. I initially thought it is some kind of file system error but I read the post about the cache drive and makes total sense.
