Failed to mount Pool(?), unable to boot into OS

  • Hi OMV team,


    I have an issue I have been trying to troubleshoot, however I am fairly useless at debian and cannot for the life of me figure out what is breaking and how to fix it.


    Last week Friday I found I had no access to my data - my MergerFS volume appeared to be down.
    So I rebooted the server and it did not come back up like it usually does when I have an issue.


    I've got it hooked up to a screen and keyboard and it appears that OMV cannot mount the MergerFS volume (I'm guessing)


    Here is the boot screen and result of the command it recommended I type to see what the error is:



    I could really use some help to get my server back up and running again please! ?( ?(  =O ;(

  • I tried editing out the drive I thought was causing the error from FSTAB (made a backup first!)- this made things worse.
    So I put it back in


    All drives appear mounted when typing 'mount'



    Happy to take any advice or commands here

    Maybe this is the issue. You can shutdown the server, disconnect the drives and reboot. After that check if the directory /srv/94e87264-55f0-49c3-b699-0efa2dbff704 exist and is not empty.

  • Okay,

    So just to double check.

    I disconnect all non OS drives,

    Navigate to that folder (cd /srv/xxx)

    Do a Ls -a and there should hopefully be nothing?


    Question: if there is nothing- what next?

    If there is something- what next?

  • So following up - gave this a go.


    Disconnected all drives except my boot drive, turned the server back on and navigated to that folder.

    It showed quite a few errors (obviously) during boot up.


    So I navigated to the folder in question which was there.


    There was quite a few folders in there (of names and structures I was familiar with), however it appeared there was 0 files in there.

    I used the ls -a command and there seemed to be nothing in any of the folders and subfolders.


    I navigated to the root folder again /srv/94e87264-55f0-49c3-b699-0efa2dbff704 and did a rm -r of the 2 sub folders in that directory,

    rebooted the server and it came online!

    I will have to continue to monitor for any oddities that may be in place - I did notice that during this boot there was an error saying something about unable to rotate the log files(?)?

    That seems unrelated. If it comes up again, post the message here.
