HELP! Unraid red dot and unformatted drives

[dgaschk]

If /dev/md10 is available then continue to work with it. I suggested making a copy if /dev/md10 was not available and you had to work with the /dev/sdX1 partition. You can copy anyway by installing a destination drive that is at least as big as the original and using the commands given in the link I posted. You can make a copy from /dev/md10 to /dev/sdX1

run reiserfsck with --rebuild-sb

[socalunraid]

ran reiserfsck on disk 9 which state no corruptions.  I rebooted array, disk 9 showed up again, no longer unformatted?  strange.  I'm elated.  But what's going on?

 

Thanks.

That can happen if at any point unRAID gets a write failure to the drive as long as it did not damage the file system.

 

Lets hope you are as lucky with disk 10.

[socalunraid]

I'm finally getting around to doing the reiserfsck --rebuild-sb

 

There are many questions asked?

 

Enter block size [4096]:

 

No journal device was specified.

Is journal default? y/n:

 

I've searched and could not fine any posts with instructions.

 

Thanks.

Check Disk File systems

 

The section you want is near the bottom.

[socalunraid]

thank you.

 

Currently copying disk 10 using :

dd conv=noerror if=/dev/sdl of=/dev/sdx 

using sdl since md10 isn't recognized

 

sdx is my extra hdd

 

after i punched that in telenet, i just have a green cursor?

 

is that is to be expected or is the process frozen?

 

any signs of progress? %

 

thanks.

That's normal, there's a display progress option on newer releases, status=progress, but wait and it will be done when you get the cursor back.

[socalunraid]

thanks.

 

 

[socalunraid]

when i rebuild:  reiserfsck --rebuild-sb /dev/sdb

 

or 

 

                          reiserfsck --rebuild-sb /dev/sdb1?

 

thanks.

If the disk is still part of the array use mdX (replace X with disk number), if not use sdb1.
