[SOLVED] « Unmountable: No file system » after shutdown


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Hello and thank you to anyone reading me!
I recently shut down my server gracefully via the Shutdown button on the Main page so that I could move my server to another location in the house.
The move of the tower went well with no hit or shock whatsoever.


Although, since I powered the server back up, unRAID shows me that the newest data disk of my array (which is only a few months old) has an unmountable file system.

The current state of the server is powered on with the array on-line. I'm considering bringing the array off-line to prevent the array exchanging more data while in that state.

 

Of course, you'll find my diagnostics zip attached to this post.

I checked the syslog to see any failed commands (happened in the past where there were read errors on my parity drive) but it seems like there is none.

 

So, I am considering attempting to repair the XFS partition like documented in the wiki after reading another post from 2018 about a similar case.

Although, I wanted to check on the forums first in case I missed something and of course because I didn't come across this situation often which makes me not have much experience dealing with it.

Thanks for the reply!
So far, I ran the test with the « -nv » option in the administration panel and it seem like the only alerts it is showing are that I'm running the command in no modification mode and so, it's ignoring a few things.

Did I miss something?

Now the output is a bit different. It sounds like there is a disparity between the filesystem's log and the actual data on disk?

Update :
I ran the repair with no option first. It completed asking to use the -L option as mentioned by @johnnie.black for attempting to repair since there were issues with the drive's logs.
So, I ran the repair again with the -L switch and it completed. Great.
Then, I restarted the array but still in Maintenance (I wanted to be safe) and it was still showing unmountable. Turns out I forgot that in Maintenance mode, the drives aren't actually mounted and I need to go in Normal mode.
So I re-restarted the array but not in Maintenance mode this time and the data disk seemed to be back to normal.

I then proceeded to go through a reboot to see if it would fall unmountable again and so far it's holding up!

 

Thank you @johnnie.black!
Marking thread as solve now.
