SSD data disk move - not actually moved

Configuration
1

Hi, Home Assistant 2023.4.5, Supervisor 2023.04.0, Operating System 10.0, Frontend 20230411.1 - latest running on Rpi4.

“Move data disk” concludes (I am able to select my 120GB SSD fine) --and nothing happens. Everything is still on the SD card. Storage is still displaying 80% full, same as before (it’s a 32GB SD card). I can pick my SSD in the migration dialogue again.

I don’t see anything in log. What to check? Thanks.

This is “sda” in Hardware - All devices:

I see many disk-related issues with HA OS 10 on the HA OS github, maybe this is another one?

3

Hello,

I have the exact same issue, I can pick the disk, the process seems to start / complete (the raspi3 takes a while to come back).

But when I ceck the data disk location after booting up, it still shows as the SD card.

I also have a warning saying that /dev/sda1 is a filesystem named hassos-data and not the active data disk, so HA might chose the wrong data disk on boot.

It suggests, overwriting the partition or moving the data disk (??) or removing the disk from the system?

How can I find out what’s going on during and immediately after the data disk migration process, short of connecting a display to the pi and checking out?

Having the same issue on HAOS 2024.4.4, nothing gets actually moved.

@fcmircea @Stooovie could you guys fix the issue?
Might this be power related issue on the raspberry pi?

5

I swapped the SSD, thinking it was incompatible but HA doesn’t even boot now.
I can ping it but neither SSH nor the Web interface come up…
I waited a few hours for it to go up but seems like its bricked as detaching the SSD doesn’t seems to solve the issue.

Luckily I made a backup beforehand, normally I skip on those :crazy_face:

I got it to work.
Raspberry Pi 4 USB 3.0 drivers (xhci) seem to be buggy, using the USB 2.0 ports have resolved all issues.
