ridley Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Can someone please try to shine a light on the errors I am getting here. The system was doing its monthly parity check and now it is saying that the Parity Disk is in error with read and write errors. I have captured a syslog, attached, and am trying to download the diagnostic file which is still going after a good 10-15 minutes (is something wrong there?) I am loathed to turn the system off until I have captured the diagnostics. syslog 031220.txt Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Since you have already given us syslog, and parity is going to have to be rebuilt anyway, it is OK to get us Diagnostics after rebooting. Quote Link to comment
ridley Posted December 3, 2020 Author Share Posted December 3, 2020 (edited) OK, Rebooted and now the diagnostics works and I have attached. Any ideas about what is going wrong and what I should do next? tower-diagnostics-20201203-2154.zip Edited December 3, 2020 by ridley addition Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 No obvious SMART problems with parity. Run an extended SMART test on it. You really should consider dual parity with that many disks. Are you sure power is OK for that many? Quote Link to comment
ridley Posted December 3, 2020 Author Share Posted December 3, 2020 (edited) Pretty sure, it is a NetApp DiskShelf with 4 PSU's and a Dell R710 with 2 PSU's. (Whether the wall socket can take it is another matter , but it does not draw as much power as you would think) Edited December 3, 2020 by ridley addition Quote Link to comment
ridley Posted December 4, 2020 Author Share Posted December 4, 2020 Mmmm not convinced by the Extended Smart Self Test, it's been going for the best part of a day now and it is still at 20%, even on a 14Tb drive that seems a bit long. Doesn't it? Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 You can see how long it's expected to take by looking at the SMART report: Extended self-test routine recommended polling time: (1542) minutes. Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 3 minutes ago, ridley said: at 20% Also that's usually the remaining %. Quote Link to comment
ridley Posted December 4, 2020 Author Share Posted December 4, 2020 Extended Smart Finished without error. I have attached the diagnostics, any ideas what to do? tower-diagnostics-20201204-2335.zip Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Swap both cables with another disk to rule them out and re-sync parity. Quote Link to comment
ridley Posted December 5, 2020 Author Share Posted December 5, 2020 (edited) I have taken it out, put it into another caddy (there are no cables as it is a Disk Shelf) and am rebuilding parity. Edited December 5, 2020 by ridley Quote Link to comment
