single host pool failure
-
This has happened time and time again but i normally just rebuild. this time i thought i would try to fix... with help.
my host get to this point of boot and then stops. the screen input is flashing but the keyboard becomes frozen (numlock won't turn off)
the 2nd picture is as far as it get in safemode boot.
I have tried to mount the volume to a live ubuntu but that failed. I will try again as i didn't have the pics so was half hearted as didn't know where to find the file. anyone got any ideas or seen it before?
VMs are backed up, i just want to know the issue as it's not the 1st time
thanks in advance

Dead disk or controller
-
well i reinstall and it will work again for months, sometimes like to day until i reboot. I had my everything crossed but no such luck.
Normally (not an expert) you get reports of errored disks on the console display (writing over the console)
I don't seem to get any of that. i think i've changed the SSD in the past (long time ago) but due to same issue i'm sure.
i'll run some diags on disks and ram to be sure (as sure at those tests are)
thanks, any other ideas?

Different brand? Can be the controller too. But reading what I'm seeing on the screen, it's very likely to be a disk issue.
