lionceau Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Hello, My parity check log seems to have become corrupted when restored my boot drive from a backup. It now shows one check from today and one completed from 1.1.1970: 1970 Jan 1 01:00:00|-1487685544|nan B/s|0| I do have a backup of the old parity-check.log but it seems to get overwritten when I try to replace the corrupt one with the working one. Is there a trick to make the restored backup stick? Quote Link to comment
John_M Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 The file is /boot/config/parity-checks.log and it looks something like this: Quote 2016 Nov 16 00:45:16|32637|153.2 MB/s|0|0 2016 Nov 19 13:12:51|36916|135.5 MB/s|0|0 2016 Dec 1 15:14:13|36852|135.7 MB/s|0|0 2016 Dec 8 02:34:31|37072|134.9 MB/s|0|0 2017 Feb 1 15:10:57|36656|136.4 MB/s|0|0 2017 Feb 4 23:16:02|36777|136.0 MB/s|0|0 2017 Feb 18 09:30:28|36899|135.5 MB/s|0|0 Quote Link to comment
lionceau Posted February 21, 2017 Author Share Posted February 21, 2017 Yes thanks, I should have phrased my post differently. I've edited/replaced /boot/config/parity-checks.log with the good backup but it gets overwritten or appended with the faulty entry periodically (or whenever I reboot) Quote Link to comment
John_M Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I can see how bad entries might get added to the end but I don't understand how the file itself could be overwritten. Perhaps you have some corruption on your boot device. It would be worth shutting down, removing it and checking it on a PC. It might be worth getting a fresh download of the unRAID installer zip and replacing the three bz* files in the root of your boot device in case they've become damaged somehow. 1 Quote Link to comment

If not it will be appended (not overwritten). Quote Link to comment
lionceau Posted February 21, 2017 Author Share Posted February 21, 2017 Thanks for the input. I'm currently running a parity check so I can't try anything but I'll check tomorrow. Quote Link to comment
