That doesn't sound good. It's not a Btrfs problem but a md/mdadm problem. You'll have to get support for this from Synology, only they understand the design of the storage stack layout and whether these error messages are important or not and how to fix them. Anyone else speculating could end up causing damage to the NAS and data to be lost. -------- 2019-09-08T17:27:02+02:00 MHPNAS kernel: [ 22.913298] md: sda2 has different UUID to sda1 There are several messages like this. I can't tell if they're just informational and benign or a problem. Also not related to Btrfs. -------- 2019-09-08T22:09:33+02:00 MHPNAS kernel: [16997.419199] BTRFS warning (device dm-1): BTRFS: dm-1 checksum verify failed on 375259512832 wanted EA1A10E3 found 3080B64F level 0 2019-09-08T22:09:33+02:00 MHPNAS kernel: [16997.419199] 2019-09-08T22:09:33+02:00 MHPNAS kernel: [16997.458453] BTRFS warning (device dm-1): BTRFS: dm-1 checksum verify failed on 375259512832 wanted EA1A10E3 found 3080B64F level 0 2019-09-08T22:09:33+02:00 MHPNAS kernel: [16997.458453] 2019-09-08T22:09:33+02:00 MHPNAS kernel: [16997.528385] BTRFS: read error corrected: ino 1 off 375259512832 (dev /dev/vg1/volume_1 sector 751819488) 2019-09-08T22:09:33+02:00 MHPNAS kernel: [16997.539631] BTRFS: read error corrected: ino 1 off 375259516928 (dev /dev/vg1/volume_1 sector 751819496) 2019-09-08T22:09:33+02:00 MHPNAS kernel: [16997.550785] BTRFS: read error corrected: ino 1 off 375259521024 (dev /dev/vg1/volume_1 sector 751819504) 2019-09-08T22:09:33+02:00 MHPNAS kernel: [16997.561990] BTRFS: read error corrected: ino 1 off 375259525120 (dev /dev/vg1/volume_1 sector 751819512) There are a bunch of messages like this. Btrfs is finding metadata checksum errors, some kind of corruption has happened with one of the copies, and it's been fixed up. But why are things being corrupt in the first place? Ordinary bad sectors maybe? There's a lot of these - like really a lot. Hundreds of affected sectors. There are too many for me to read through and see if all of them were corrected by DUP metadata. -------- 2019-09-22T21:24:27+02:00 MHPNAS kernel: [1224856.764098] md2: syno_self_heal_is_valid_md_stat(496): md's current state is not suitable for data correction What does that mean? Also not a Btrfs problem. There are quite a few of these. -------- 2019-09-23T11:49:20+02:00 MHPNAS kernel: [1276791.652946] BTRFS error (device dm-1): BTRFS: dm-1 failed to repair btree csum error on 1353162506240, mirror = 1 OK and a few of these also. This means that some metadata could not be repaired, likely because both copies are corrupt. My recommendation is to freshen your backups now while you still can, and prepare to rebuild the NAS. i.e. these are not likely repairable problems. Once both copies of Btrfs metadata are bad, it's usually not fixable you just have to recreate the file system from scratch. You'll have to move everything off the NAS - and anything that's really important you will want at least two independent copies of, of course, and then you're going to obliterate the array and start from scratch. While you're at it, you might as well make sure you've got the latest supported version of the software for this product. Start with that. Then follow the Synology procedure to wipe the NAS totally and set it up again. You'll want to make sure the procedure you use writes out all new metadata for everything: mdadm, lvm, Btrfs. Nothing stale or old reused. And then you'll copy you data back over to the NAS. There's nothing in the provided log that helps me understand why this is happening. I suspect hardware problems of some sort - maybe one of the drives is starting to slowly die, by spitting out bad sectors. To know more about that we'd need to see 'smartctl -x /dev/' for each drive in the NAS and see if smart gives a clue. Somewhere around 50/50 shot that smart will predict a drive failure in advance. So my suggestion again, without delay, is to make sure the NAS is backed up, and keep those backups fresh. You can recreate the NAS when you have free time - but these problems likely will get worse. --- Chris Murphy
