Hi everyone,
I am trying to set up my own FreeNas Server. I feel that I need to start by apologizing, since I noticed the firm recommendations against AMD here. So I am ashamed to say that I tried it anyway. I read this german guide where my hardware combination worked fine:
CPU: AMD Athlon 5350 with AES-Ni support
Motherboard: ASRock AM1H-ITX
RAM: 8GB Crucial Ballistix DDR3-1600, 1.5V
Case: CoolerMaster Elite 120 Advanced, Mini-ITX
FreeNas Drive: SanDisk Extreme SLC 16GB USB 3.0
Storage: 4x WD Red 4 TB
I used this hardware because of the low power consumption and the hardware AES support.
I use FreeNAS-9.3-STABLE-201506162331.
Here is my problem:
I created an encrypted (passphrase not yet set) RaidZ with 4x 4 TB WD Red disks.
The 4 disks were set to Standby after 60 mins and Advanced Power Management Level 1.
I created a CIFS share and started to copy data from my Windows 7 PC to it. During that, I get the Alarm:
"The volume DatenRaid1 (ZFS) state is DEGRADED: One or more devices has been removed by the administrator. Sufficient replicas exist for the pool to continue functioning in a degraded state."
I checked the Raid Volume Status page and found that one disk had the status "REMOVED". I could just click "Replace" and add it back into the raid array. The resilvering process started and finished and everything was healthy again.
Then 3 hours later the same thing happened with the same disk (ada3).
I set Standby to "always on" and the Advanded Power Management Feature of all disks off.
Then a few hours later 2 disks at the same time were removed from the array.
With that the array was unavailable. I couldn't add the disks back to the array. I rebooted the server. Then the pool was locked and I couldn't unlock it anymore.
I ran some short SMART tests on all 4 disks, and everything looked fine. I added the smart output of ada3 below.
What do you think this is? What can cause this removal of the disks?
Is it a disk, other hardware or a software problem? Can the power management cause this if a disk spins down?
Thanks for any help.
