Suddenly our NAS had a problem
What was the problem? What was the dmesg? Since the dmesg shared implies accessing rubbish data. I am afraid that the system (CPU or memory) is broken. Please check them first.
Raids and disks seem to be ok.
How did you test this? Please describe the system configuration. Especially, how big the cache device is? See lsblk. Kernel version, Writeboost version, ... everything is missing to understand the situation.
If you want to independently check if the data on cache device is not broken, you can use wbcheck in https://github.com/akiradeveloper/dm-writeboost-tools. Loop over the segments and see every results return success.
We did a throughfull test on all hardware and DDR4 memory failed. We replaced memory and writeboost was able to create wbdev again with all the data. That's great, thanks!
Nice. I am relieved. Will close.
Hi,
Suddenly our NAS had a problem and we reboot it. After that, we tried to bring up writeboost again an this is the output in dmesg. Raids and disks seem to be ok. Any thoughts on what is happening? It is a hardware issue? Could we try to create the cache again (and will we lose the data?)?
Thanks.
We did another reboot and this showed in dmesg when trying to start writeboost:
