Hi Guys,
So whilst I was out of town/unable to get connected to my server one of the disks (4x3tb RAIDz1 - yes CyberJock I know, just read the whole thing before you start typing your 'look at my signature, dumbass' reply :D ) started failing. I got an email with a few bad sectors. All I could do was shut it down in the hopes of minimizing damage until I got home.
Now that I'm home however I cannot boot to the GUI in order to start the disk replacement, which is kind of leaving me stuck in regards my pool. I think the disk has had a fairly serious failure pretty quickly.
At boot I get stuck in a loop of:
Now, if I remove the troubled disk I can get to the GUI, although obviously in that case my pool is gone.
Has anyone ever had this/seen this? I've got a lingering hope that if I can boot to GUI I can offline the disk and replace it, but I'm pretty sure in reality I've lost my data.
If that's the case so be it I suppose. I keep a cold spare, a keen eye on performance and am fine with the risk but I was caught out at a time I couldn't respond. These things happen.
I am using a Gen8 Microserver, 16Gb RAM. Up to date (updates applied within the last fortnight) FreeNAS 9.10 boots from USB stick.
Anything I can try when I get home tonight would be appreciated - thanks for reading.
