5 tb raid fails and can't debug

Recommended Posts

Hi:

 

I am getting "Analysis Failed" or "Building file list Failed" when I start Defraggler on a 5 TB raid 5. Windows Server 2003. Two other raid 1 on same box work fine.

 

Additionally when I attempt to run in debug mode using:

"C:\Program Files\Defraggler\Defraggler.exe /debug" I get error that windows can't find it. However it will find Defraggler without the /debug.

 

Does server require reboot for debug?

 

thanks.

Mr.Ron:

 

When I (impatiently) did not see an official reply in this thread, I also posted this issue in the Defraggler Bug reporting forum discussion.

There is another log file there that also includes a defrag attempt. This log is zipped because I guess the first upload maxed out my limit.

 

I appreciate your help and hope we can resolve this issue. I do like using defraggler!

Can't do that until weekend. Will try and post after. Piriform asked for and received debug log file, do they usually respond after that?

Can you do a chkdsk on this drive?

 

For anything XP/2003 do chkdsk /r c:

for vista/windows7/2008 do chkdsk /B c:

 

replace c: with your actual drive letter

UPDATE

 

Completed full disk check and repair successfully. Took about 30 hours!

 

Defraggler still reports errors "Analysis Failed" and does not defragment. Again note that on the same server, two other RAID 1 units work fine with Defraggler. Are there known issues with large RAID 6 units or large drives in general?

 

Can someone from Piriform weigh in on this please?
