dbss11 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 I found a cyberpower 685avr UPS at a Desert Industries for really cheap and decided to use it on my Unraid server until I save up to buy a better one because I thought having a UPS would be better than no UPS but I guess not. So yesterday my UPS overloaded and shutdown my server during a parity check. When I turned it on after the unclean shutdown, I did another parity check and 3 errors were found. I then did another parity check with error corrections and the errors seem to be persisting. What should I do from here to remedy the errors? Quote Link to comment

I then did another parity check with error corrections and the errors seem to be persisting. 1st parity check was noncorrecting. 2nd parity check found those same uncorrected errors and corrected them. Do another noncorrecting parity check to verify that all have been corrected now. Don't reboot in case we need to compare these in the syslog if errors persist. Quote Link to comment
dbss11 Posted September 3, 2020 Author Share Posted September 3, 2020 Okay will do, thanks! I shut down the server down a day ago after googling like crazy for an answer so hopefully it didn't delete syslog. Quote Link to comment

Like the rest of the OS, syslog is in RAM so resets on reboot. Not a big deal if the next parity check finds zero sync errors. Quote Link to comment
dbss11 Posted September 3, 2020 Author Share Posted September 3, 2020 Awesome, the noncorrecting parity check just finished; you were correct zero errors were found on the last run. Thank you for taking the time to help me out! Quote Link to comment
