hm... i dont know why, but i can't get the unmount work inside a backup script.

 

You need to sync before you unmount:

sync -f /mnt/disks/mountpoint

 

This will commit all writes to the disk.

@sonic6 You don't need the sleeps.

I have successfully mounted a drive using "Unassigned Devices", which I can see and read from, but when trying to copy files to that drive I now get errors from windows telling me the drive is "write protected". I have ensured "read only" is not checked and have tried both authenticated SMB mode as well as public settings, both of which still result in the same error. Any assistance is greatly appreciated!

Hi all,

 

I hope someone can help me with my problem. I just replaced my 1TB external HDD with an 4TB one for my backups. 

 

First I have formatted it with XFS and mounting was no problem, but I wanted to have this disk being encrypted so I formatted the disk again, now with XFS_encrypted aka LUKS. I chose a password and also put it in the UAD settings. But for some reason mounting this encrypted partition is not possible.

Formatting it back to simple XFS mounting is just working fine again.

 

Any idea what is causing this issue? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

 

Is anyone experiencing the same issue with encrypted UAD drives or maybe does someone has an idea what is causing this issue?

Working fine for me.  Post diagnostics.

UD does not leave "Format" State for a passed through disk after the rebuilt of this disk finishes in the VM.

 

Let me explain:

 

Several disks are passed through to an Unraid VM. These disks are marked as passed through within UD. One of the passed through disks had to be replaced within the VM. During the rebuild within the VM, UD did show the "Format" button for this passed through disk. Everythings fine until here.

 

Now the disk is successfully rebuilt within the VM and the VM is working as usual.

 

UD still shows the "Format" button and no plus sign (for the partition).

 

Please have a look at the attached screenshot. The disk is formatted (rebuild), working and is written to. But UD still shows no + sign (for the partition) and still shows the Format text.

 

Thanks for listening.

 

 

 

In the latest update to UD, disks that are passed through will show as "Passed".  If you format a disk in a VM, you can refresh the UD status by clicking on the double arrow icon in the upper right of the UD page and a udev update for all disks will be initiated.  This will bring UD up to date on all disks and UD will then show any changes made outside UD.

This is the problem I think:

May  6 18:16:57 Unraid unassigned.devices: Adding disk '/dev/mapper/Intenso_External_USB_3.0'...
May  6 18:16:59 Unraid unassigned.devices: Mount drive command: /sbin/mount -o rw,noatime,nodiratime '/dev/mapper/Intenso_External_USB_3.0' '/mnt/disks/Intenso_External_USB_3.0'

I'm not sure what is causing the issue with the blockdev.  Maybe @JorgeB can offer some assistance as this appears to be a disk issue.

Doesn't look like a disk problem to me, it was mounting before with unencrypted xfs:

 

May  6 18:35:28 Unraid unassigned.devices: Adding disk '/dev/sda1'...
May  6 18:35:28 Unraid unassigned.devices: Mount drive command: /sbin/mount -t xfs -o rw,noatime,nodiratime '/dev/sda1' '/mnt/disks/Intenso_External_USB_3.0'
May  6 18:35:28 Unraid kernel: XFS (sda1): Mounting V5 Filesystem
May  6 18:35:29 Unraid kernel: XFS (sda1): Ending clean mount

 

Then it didn't mount with encrypted xfs, does it still work if you reformat without encryption?

Mounting it without encryption works flawless. This is my workaround for now, but I really would like to have the disk encrypted.

Then looks like some issue with UD and/or encryption, can't help with that.

Try a reboot.

Had the same idea and already rebooted. Later I will try to format the external with encrypted XFS again. I'll keep you all posted.

I have a DAS device Terra-master (D5-300) connected by a usb-c  to my unraid through unassigned devices

its an raid 5 with two btrfs-luks partitions and can be accessed just fine.

the problem is that when I start a file transfer to the DAS and after some times ( ~ 1 hour) all the DAS's HDs LED and FANS goes OFF ( as it goes to sleep mode) while the files transfer continues normally, which leads to temperature rise of the HDs due to FANS are off.

I already contacted manufacturer and after some emails back and forth they confirm that the device is absolutely fine !

so I start to think it may be some settings not right within  unassigned devices that trigger this issue.

I have also noticed an icon next to the first partition which I am not sure what it is (see screenshot)

any help is appreciated

The disk ball indicates that UD thinks the drive is spinning (not sleeping).  It looks like your device is setting the sleep mode on its own.

Hover you mouse over the icon and a tool tip will tell you what it does.

N00b question here.  I've got a Plex Server Docker running smoothly, and I thought I'd share some music on my Windows desktop with Plex.  I've set up a local Windows account called "plex" that has read permissions.  Via the UD web UI, I can click through the Add Remote SMB share dialogs and pick and select the share.  When I click on the orange "mount" button, it blinks grey, then goes back to orange.  I never see the mount  name under /mnt/remotes/.  Ideas appreciated.  I'm sure I'm missing something basic.

Thanks.  The error was ""Mount of '//XPS8930/Music' failed: 'mount error: could not resolve address for XPS8930: Unknown error '.""  I changed the server name to the IP address and it worked.  Might it be because the machine has multiple NICs and IP addresses?

When I hover the mouse over the icon it says "Excute Script as udev simulating a device being installed"
and when I click on it I got a message window with "/tmp/unassigned.devices/scripts/TDAS_RAID5-part1.sh 2>&1"
I do not understand what are these, and why I got this icon on this partition only.. all other devices and partitions have a "check mark" icon on them
do I did something wrong in here..
