Would it help ? no, dont cchange anything until you know about the reason dont do any repairs, 1st step is to collect information and get a picture of the problem and you should be tripple carefull if you dont have a backup and need that data 3 hours ago, dandumit said: Those disks can be read on other system ? yes, synology usese mdadm and lvm2 for its software raid, both standard linux software 3 hours ago, dandumit said: will I be able to recover data from disks ? depends on the problem, 1st step is still gather some information about the state how did you confugure your disk array, any non redundant volumes like raid0, basic or jbod?

0 dandumit Posted January 23, 2021 Author Share #3 Posted January 23, 2021 Thank you @IG-88 for your answer ! Another fact it's that I had 3 disks on that proprietary Synology raid that allows to mix different kind of HDD sizes. One disk had some bad sectors and was present with yellow on disk manager. Now in disk manager I see only 2 HDD with green. Probably this is the reason. How I could overpass this ? I saw a tutorial here : http://www.vsam.pro/crashed-synology-volume-and-how-to-restore-ds415-play/ Should I try this procedure ?

0 dandumit Posted January 23, 2021 Author Share #5 Posted January 23, 2021 Thank you @IG-88 ! I have followed above mentioned article and I have ended like this : root@dsm01:/# cat /etc/fstab none /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/root / ext4 defaults 1 1 root@dsm01:/# fsck.ext4 /dev/vg1/volume_1 e2fsck 1.42.6 (21-Sep-2012) ext2fs_open2: Bad magic number in super-block fsck.ext4: Superblock invalid, trying backup blocks... fsck.ext4: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/vg1/volume_1 The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2 filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock: e2fsck -b 8193 <device> but it looks a bit wrong to me because I have asked ext4 and it describes that it's not ext2 Daniel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was under the impression that this message was part of Synology's hardware validation feature and if it failed (meaning that the loader hack did not work), this message was the result. I don't believe that it means there is a data integrity problem. However, I would start with looking at your arrays and see if they are damaged, then start documenting the system. OP seems to be wandering around with online tutorials (already tried a filesystem check for ext4 and btrfs, there is only one or the other) and that will only result in damage. If arrays look intact, I'd consider regenerating a loader and doing a migration install and see if that fixes the issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 IG-88 Posted January 23, 2021 Share #8 Posted January 23, 2021 (edited) its not a mismatch of usb vid/pid, that just throws a mount failed on the serial console and dsm does not start at all i guess taking a new usb and redoing the loader from scratch cant do anything wrong if dsm does not start it can be checked in network (ip address), as the loader comes with 6.2.0 and there is a newer kernel (dsm system) on the disk it should offer recovery/repair and doing so will copy the newer kernel back to the loader (only takes less then a minute) and it should do a reboot, after that dsm should start again (if a extended extra.lzma was used it should also be copied to the new usb - and no files should be used from the old loader) Edited January 23, 2021 by IG-88 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 dandumit Posted January 26, 2021 Author Share #9 Posted January 26, 2021 Hello, For someone that ever hit this situation : I have been able to read disks using this article : https://www.synology.com/en-global/knowledgebase/DSM/tutorial/Storage/How_can_I_recover_data_from_my_DiskStation_using_a_PC I have rewrote the usb stick with same image as initial ! because board it's old, cpu it's amd athlon and nic chip it's realtek, I needed to use a special lzma... After doing this, tries to recover and blocks. Dead end... I think that those disks are irecoverable. USed to be a SHR composed of 3 HDD's. IT seems that only one it's valid now. One has a lot of alarms on SMART and the third cannot be seen even at boot time. Thank you for helping me ! Daniel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 dandumit Posted January 27, 2021 Author Share #11 Posted January 27, 2021 thank you @IG-88 for support. same thing it's not understandable to me too. On that Ubuntu I have been able to read content from disks. But when trying to start again with reinstall - > recover all system blocks and I am not able to go further. I am so desperate and clueless that I am considering to buy an original synology HW. thank you Daniel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question
dandumit
Hello,
I have this nasty situation "Abnormality detected on dsm. All volumes have been unmounted."
Where 2 power outages yesterday and after this I have this message.
Was that synology proprietary raid. from 3 disks I see now only 2 and there is no volume on it .
How could I fix this ? Should I newer DSM boot loader ? Would it help ?
Those disks can be read on other system ? will I be able to recover data from disks ?
Thank you,
Daniel
