Freenas all the sudden looping after starting up and syncing disks

Hello, been a very long user of Freenas since around 2007ish, back when it was still very simple to use. Over the years I have upgraded with new releases, but never really understood all the new corp level features and such, but my Freenas chugged along.

Anyways, needless to say, I am a long time user newb. My current and trusty Freenas no longer works. The first problem was that when I went to start it up, I got a "This is a NAS data disk and cannot boot system". Ok, fair enough, my flash drive has died. So I buy a 120GB SSD, install on that, and go to reimport my backup file, only to get a looping reboot after the "syncing disks" part, and I also catch it saying "panic" which cannot be good. I also tried to reimport the ZFS pool,instead of uploading my backup config, and also got the same error.

As a last resort, I was able to get my failed USB drive to finally load up again somehow, and it now has the very same looping issue as noted above. There is one thing that changed during all of this as well. When I installed the SSD, I unhooked the first of my 3 disks (cannot remember what RAID level, but 3 1tb disks) from the sata 0 port so I could plug the SSD in there and move all the disks down one sata port. During this, the sata port plastic pulled off the MOBO, so now I have my SSD plugged into SATA1, with the remaining 3 disks following it. I do not know if that has anything to deal with my issue.

Also, I do not know how to dump a log, to even look at what is failing.

Thanks guys

If you've got hardware damage to your motherboard, then there may not be any help to provide.
  1. Can you get into the BIOS? If you can, reset your boot order to reflect what disk is now where, and try to disable the damaged SATA port.
  2. Assuming you had the 3x 1TB drives configured as a RAIDZ zpool, then try a fresh install on the SSD. Try to import your pool, telling FreeNAS which disks should be members.
  3. Don't import your config. You'll need to rebuild it by hand, since the config points to the old disk locations.

Thanks for replying.

So I tried to disable the ports that have been damaged (now 2, same plastic), but am unsure if they actually are disabled in the bios, I was able to cut power to them and that was it.


Fresh installed Freenas to the new SSD, tried to import the pool, it saw the pool and said it was importing, but then it restarted, and has the same error as before.

Well, this board's a goner. You're probably not going to have any more luck with the remaining SATA ports. At this point, you'll need to try getting the pool restored on new hardware.

I agree, I have already ordered new hardware. Its a shame the quality of this board, only being 4-5 years old. I have been building PC's for 20 years, and am aware of how to remove SATA cables, and have never had this happen before.

So when I get this new hardware in a few days, what SATA port order do you suggest?

Thanks

Ok,

So I have now purchased a new MOBO, CPU and RAM (couldn't use old ddr3) and have assembled it. I still have the same exact problem after importing my pool manually and not using the config. Any ideas now? I am hoping that the initial boot disk failure did not coincidentally also have a drive failure in my pool.. It does see my pool just as it did on the old hardware, it just fails after adding it.

Was able to recover somehow (it didn't seem to work until at first) from this thread


So I was able to import my pool, that is good news, but now for some reason I am having issues connecting through windows, even after importing my old config, so I am not sure if it somehow messed up my share. I hate permissions stuff.

It doesn't look good. What does smartctl -a /dev/ada0 show? Likewise for ada1 and ada2.

Can i put that command in through the GUI?

I was able to delete my old Samba share, make a new one and point it to my old dataset on the pool, and was able to get back in to everything that way.

Now that I am up and running, is there anything I should do to make sure everything is safe and secure now? I thought I was safe before, but just to make sure I am doing everything right since the whole reason of running this is for data security for me.

Thanks for all the help so far.

Glad you were able to recover your pool. The disks themselves look OK, according to smartctl. Your windowset folder has 4 corrupted files, which was likely causing the import problems. 2 of the files are so corrupted, they can't be accessed. I'd try to copy everything off that dataset, and then destroy it and recreate it.

You're also using WD Blues, which aren't recommended for FreeNAS. Your pool is also RAIDZ1, which means you can only save your pool from a single disk failure. You may want to consider getting 4 disks, and recreating your pool as RAIDZ2.

You should also be running on WD Reds, but avoid the SMR EFAX drives. If you can get the EFRX previous generation Reds, they'll have no problems.

Finally RAID and snapshots are no substitute for backups, especially multiple backups, both on- and off-site.

Not everything is OK... watch out on that disk... CRC errors at that level can indicate some issues with the disk controller board talking to the SATA controller.

I got this error today, but it does not tell me which disk it is. Any way to see more descriptive info on this error so I can fix it? It is probably the disk you pointed out.

Go to Storage->Pools, and click the gear icon. Pull down to Status:

This will bring up the pool status, which will tell you the faulty disk.

Ok, I checked, but it is not seeming to tell me which disk has the errors.

It could be ada2. Also run a smartctl -a on ada3. The scrub is complaining about 4 corrupt files in your NealsHddVolume/windowset dataset:

NealsHddVolume/windowset:<0x2f628>
NealsHddVolume/windowset:<0x2f62e>
NealsHddVolume/windowset/3d prints before start script update 1-19-2020/Hue covers/stealthdecora2gang/obsolete/stealthdecora2standoff.factory/<xattrdir>
NealsHddVolume/windowset/3d prints before start script update 1-19-2020/Hue covers/stealthswitch2gang

The first 2 are so corrupt, even the names are gone. You'll need to pull everything off this dataset, remove the dataset, recreate it, and restore its contents.

I removed the dataset and recreated it, everything seemed good a few days, and again I get corruption. I was looking to get WD reds as you suggested, but ended up getting enterprise, since for some reason they were cheaper than the reds, must be a sale.
