SOLVED: ix2-dl soho software won't mount disks
TL;DR the web gui and event viewer as well as soho.log don't actually print when mounting disks. It mounted itself eventually after a few days of uptime. No log message, no warnings or errors. No idea why a powerloss caused it so much grief.
Mounting the logical volume in a temp folder showed that all of the data appears intact... so I'm not freaking out. Yet.
This product is EOL so I'm not expecting useful support from whomever owns this iomega stuff now. Don't really know who to ask... Lenovo? EMC?
One of the hard drives is making noise, but the web GUI is less than helpful - it doesn't show the usual bad disk or whatever.
hdparm -tT /dev/sda (and sdb) read the disk with no issues
smartctl -a claims the disk doesn't support SMART SCSI commands, even though hdparm tells me it does. might be a botched smartctl build in their firmware.
mdraid seems happy:
cat /proc/mdstat
Personalities : [linear] [raid0] [raid1] [raid10] [raid6] [raid5] [raid4]
md1 : active raid1 sdb2[2] sda2[3]
2909129536 blocks super 1.1 [2/2] [UU]
md0 : active raid1 sda1[3] sdb1[2]
20971448 blocks super 1.0 [2/2] [UU]
however, /var/log/soho.log is in a checking disks loop which repeats every 30 seconds on the dot. this is actually normal, it's doing some sort of periodic consistency check. still no idea when it actually mounted.
