Can't import pool. Drives "unavailable"

[dmo]

I'm very new to the freenas community and I don't have that much experience with servers. Everyone has to start somewhere so I started head first. That being said I did a few noob mistakes in a row to to put myself in this situation.

Running 9.10 stable. I don't have any crash logs(helpful I know). I did have a crash and an alert came up for critical error that said there could be corruption. Then next the array status was unknown. I tried reading forums and thought a factory reset would help(noob). That's where I'm at now. Trying to import my drives and get the "one or more drives are currently unavailable". I see all my drives and I don't see anything wrong with them so far. I can live with loosing the data from my inexperience and stupidity but if possibly I'd love to recover some of it.

Is your pool supposed to be a single 6-disk RAIDZ2 vdev?

Did you have an L2ARC or SLOG device at some point?

Please provide as much detail as you can about your system and how it was configured.

 

[SweetAndLow]

Hardware spec including your HDD controller.

Yes it is suppose to be. Sorry for the lack of detail. Again very new to this.

It's only a month old install of freenas. Set it up as a 6 drive RAIDZ2. I had a Windows share setup on it and had 3 jails Plex(running) , transmission(running), and owncloud(installed not running). Never had any L2ARC or SLOG device.

System specs
i7 3770k
GA-B75M-D3H
22gb Ram Non-ECC (I know its frowned apon)
6x3tb WD Reds
850W PSU

It was my old pc I recycled to be a server.

Then this message is puzzling.

What is the output of zpool import -fFn Main6Array? Please post output between CODE tags.

My bad. I'll try that when I get home and post the output properly.

Also, smartctl -a /dev/adaX for each drive X.

Did you burn in your system with memtest and badblocks?

I started saving out the smartctl for each drive earlier. I'll post when I get back. No I learned about burning a system about a week ago. Didn't see it before I installed the os.

 

[Robert Trevellyan]

I did have a crash

Do you have any idea what cause this? Any sign of a power outage or surge?

If not, one concern would be that you're trying to import a potentially damaged pool on a potentially flaky system. Consider disconnecting all disks and running memtest86+ for a couple of days.

I believe I was trying to reinstall Plex jail when it crashed. I think I was going through the permissions of the storage of the jail. Pretty sure that's when it happened. Also I tried the code you told me "zpool import -fFn Main6Array" and got nothing. Just went to a new line with no output. Attached are the smartctl for each drive.

You should run smart tests on your drives. Only ada5 has had a test run but even that drive isn't running them correctly.

whats the command for running a smart test?

 

[SweetAndLow]

whats the command for running a smart test?

Everything is in the manual

https://doc.freenas.org/9.3/freenas_tasks.html#s-m-a-r-t-tests

Or run smartctl -a /dev/ada[0-5]

 

[danb35]

Or run smartctl -a /dev/ada[0-5]

...or, to actually start a test, 'smartctl -t long /dev/ada[0-5]'.

 

[dmo]

Didn't realize they take 405 mins to complete. I started one. Can you do multiple at a time and when/how will I get the results? Do I have to keep the shell open the whole time?

 

[Ericloewe]

Can you do multiple at a time and when/how will I get the results?

Yes, of course.

Do I have to keep the shell open the whole time?

No, the drives do them internally.

You'll have to manually query the drives' SMART data to get the results, after the tests are done.

 

[dmo]

Yes, of course.

Ok thanks. I'll post the results later when they are all done. How do I query the drives for the data?

I'm very new to the freenas community and I don't have that much experience with servers. Everyone has to start somewhere so I started head first.

Since you are new, I highly recommend that you take some time to go over the informative thread/literature in these forums and get yourself a bit more educated. Not knocking you, just a suggestion that will pay dividends.

Most contributors have links to threads in their signature that you can/should at least start with. Feel free to look at the "Recommended Reading" in my signature for an initial start.

Yea I know. I got impatient and just went for it. Honestly I just want to see it I can recover my Array and pull my data. Once/if I do that I'm probably going to start over and read much more in depth before I go again.
