Add logic to handle multiple arrays.

Snapraid AIO Script

The definitive all-in-one SnapRAID script on Linux. I hope you'll agree :).

There are many SnapRAID scripts out there, but none has the features I want. So I made my own, inspired by existing solutions.

It is meant to be run periodically (daily), do the heavy lifting and send an email you will actually read.

Supports single and dual parity configurations. It is highly customizable and has been tested with Debian 11/12 and OpenMediaVault 6/7.

Contributions are welcome!

Highlights

How it works

After some preliminary checks, the script will execute snapraid diff to figure out if parity info is out of date, which means checking for changes since the last execution. During this step, the script will ensure drives are fine by reading parity and content files.
One of the following will happen:
- If parity info is out of sync and the number of deleted or changed files exceed the threshold you have configured it stops. You may want to take a look to the output log.
- If parity info is out of sync and the number of deleted or changed files exceed the threshold, you can still force a sync after a number of warnings. It's useful If you often get a false alarm but you're confident enough. This is called "Sync with threshold warnings"
  - Instead of forcing a sync based on the number of deleted files, you may consider the ADD_DEL_THRESHOLD feature, by allowing a sync that would otherwise violate the delete threshold, if the ratio of added to deleted files is greater than the value set.
- If parity info is out of sync but the number of deleted or changed files did not exceed the threshold, it executes a sync to update the parity info.
When the parity info is in sync, either because nothing has changed or after a successfully sync, it runs the snapraid scrub command to validate the integrity of the data, both the files and the parity info. If sync was cancelled or other issues were found, scrub will not be run.
- Note that each run of the scrub command will validate only a (configurable) portion of parity info to avoid having a long running job and affecting the performance of the server.
- Scrub frequency can also be customized in case you don't want to do it every time the script runs.
- It is still recommended to run scrub frequently.
Extra information can be added, like SnapRAID's disk health report or SnapRAID array status.
When the script is done sends an email with the results, both in case of error or success, and triggers any 3rd party notifications configured.

Additional Features

Docker container management
- Manage containers before SnapRAID operations and restore them when finished. It avoids nasty errors aboud data being written during SnapRAID sync.
- Support for local and remote Docker instances. Also manage multiple remote Docker instances at once.
  - Note: Remote Docker instances require SSH passwordless access.
- You can either choose to pause or stop your containers.
Custom Hooks
- Define shell commands or scripts to run before and after SnapRAID operations.
Multiple configuration files
- Use a different configuration file when running the script instead of the default config
3rd Party notification support
- Healthchecks.io, Telegram and Discord can be used to track script execution time, status and promptly alert about errors.
- You can also get notified with the Snapraid SMART log and Snapraid Status
- Notification Hook: if your favourite notification service is not supported by this script, you can use a custom notification command or another mail binary
Important messages are also sent to the system log.
Emails are still the best place to get detailed but readable information.

Customization

Many options can be changed to your taste, their behavior is documented in the config file. If you don't know what to do, I recommend using the default values and see how it performs.

Customizable features

Sync options
- Sync always (Forced Sync).
- Sync after a number of breached threshold warnings.
- Sync only if thresholds warnings are not breached (enabled by default).
- Sync even if the delete threshold has been breached, but the ratio of added to deleted files is greater than the value set.
- User definable thresholds for deleted and updated files.
Scrub options
- Enable or disable scrub job.
- Delayed option, disabled by default. Run scrub only after a number of script executions, e.g. every 7 times. If you don't want to scrub your array every time, this one is for you.
- Data to be scrubbed - by default 5% older than 10 days.
- Scrub new data - scrub the data that was just added by the sync.
Pre-hashing - enabled by default. Mitigates the lack of ECC memory, reading data twice to avoid silent read errors.
Force zero size sync - disabled by default. Forces the operation of syncing a file with zero size that before was not. Use with caution!
Snapraid Status - disabled by default. Shows the status of the array.
- This info can also be sent to Telegram or Discord
SMART Log - enabled by default. A SnapRAID report for disks health status.
- This info can also be sent to Telegram or Discord
Verbosity option - disabled by default. When enabled, includes the TOUCH and DIFF commands output. Please note email will be huge and mostly unreadable.
SnapRAID Output (log) retention - disabled by default (log is overriden every run)
- Detailed output retention for each run
- You can choose the amount of days and the path, by default set to the user home
Healthchecks.io, Telegram and Discord integration
- If you don't read your emails every day, this is a great one for you, since you can be quickly informed if things go wrong.
- The script will report to Healthchecks.io, Telegram and Discord when is started and when is completed. If there's a failure it's included as well.
- Healthchecks.io only: If the script ends with a WARNING message, it will report DOWN to Healthchecks.io, if the message is COMPLETED it will report UP.
- Healthchecks.io only: This service will also show how much time the script takes to complete.
Notification Hook
- Made for external services or mail binaries with different commands than mailx.
- Configure the path of the script or the mail binary to be invoked.
- You can still use native services since it only replaces the standard email.
Update Check - enabled by default
- The script will check via GitHub if there's an update and alert the user via the configured notification systems
- If you don't like this, it can be disabled
Docker Container management
- A list of containers you want to be interrupted before running actions and restored when completed.
- Docker mode - choose to pause/unpause or to stop/restart your containers
- Docker remote - if docker is running on a remote machine
Multiple Configuration files
- By default the script will use the predefined config file script-config.sh that must be placed in the same folder
- You can specify another file when running the script like snapraid-aio-script.sh /home/alternate_config.sh
Custom Hooks
- Commands or scripts to be run before and after SnapRAID operations.
- Option to display friendly name to in the email output
Spindown - spindown disks after the script has completed operations. Uses a rewritten version of hd-idle.

You can also change more advanced options such SnapRAID binary location, log file location and mail binary. If your mail binary uses different commands than mailx, use the Notification Hook feature.

A nice email report

This script produces emails that don't contain a list of changed files to improve clarity.

You can re-enable full output in the email by switching the option VERBOSITY. The full report is available in /tmp/snapRAID.out but will be replaced after each run, or deleted when the system is shut down. You can enable the retention policy to keep logs for some days and customize the folder location.

Here's an example email report.

Requirements

If you are running a Debian based distro (with apt package manager) the script will automatically install these dependencies for you.

python3-markdown to format emails - will be installed if not found
curl to use Healhchecks - will be installed if not found
jq - used to send discord notifications, is a lightweight and flexible command-line JSON processor
bc - used for for floating-point comparisons

Dependencies that require manual installation:

hd-idle to spin down disks - Link, installation instructions below

Installation

Install the packages listed in the Requirements section if you're not running a distro with apt package manager
Download the latest version from Releases
Extract the archive wherever you prefer
- e.g. /usr/sbin/snapraid
Give executable rights to the main script
- chmod +x snapraid-aio-script.sh
Open the config file and make changes to the config file as required.
- Every config is documented but defaults are pretty resonable, so don't make changes if you're not sure.
- When you see "" or '' in some options, do not remove these characters but just fill in your data.
- If you want to spindown your disks, you need to install hd-idle
Schedule the script execution.
- I recommend running the script daily.

TIP: To use multiple config files, you can create different schedules. Just append the config file path after the script, like snapraid-aio-script.sh /home/alternate_config.sh

It is tested on OMV6 and OMV7, but will work on other distros. In such case you may have to change the mail binary or SnapRAID location.

OMV7 USERS

OMV7's SnapRAID plugins introduced support for multiple arrays. This means each SnapRAID config file does not have a predictable name, unlike what occurred with OMV6 or standard SnapRAID installs. If running on OMV7, the AIO Script will search for a SnapRAID configuration file in the new path /etc/snapraid/. If multiple arrays are found, it will inform you to adjust your configuration.

First Run

If you start with empty disks, you cannot use (yet) this script, since it expects SnapRAID files which would not be found.

First run snapraid sync. Once completed, the array will be ready to be used with this script.

OMV and SnapRAID plugin

This script perfectly replaces the OMV built-in script. In the OMV GUI, browse to System > Scheduled Tasks and remove/disable the omv-snapraid-diff job. Also, you can igore all the settings you find at Services > SnapRAID > Diff Script Settings, since they only apply to the plugin's built-in script.

Installing `hd-idle` for Automatic Disk Spindown

If you would like to enable automatic disk spindown after the script job runs, then you will need to install hd-idle. The version included in default Debian and Ubuntu repositories is buggy and out of date - fortunately developer adelolmo has improved the project and released an updated version.

NOTE: This script is NOT compatible with the hd-idle version found in the Debian repositories. You must use the updated hd-idle binaries for spindown to work. If you receive and error such as hd-idle cannot spindown scsi disk /dev//dev/sda: then that is a sign that you are using the old/buggy version. Follow the instructions below to update.

Remove any previously existing versions of hd-idle, either by manually removing the binaries, or running apt remove hd-idle to remove the version from the default respositories.
For all recent Ubuntu and Debian releases, install the developers's repository using instructions on the developer's website. The command snippet below will select the correct repository based on your current release, and add it to your apt sources.

sudo apt-get install apt-transport-https
wget -O - http://adelolmo.github.io/[email protected] | sudo apt-key add -
echo "deb http://adelolmo.github.io/$(lsb_release -cs) $(lsb_release -cs) main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/adelolmo.github.io.list

Run apt update, and apt install hd-idle to install the updated version. You do not need to specify the respository, apt will automatically install the newset version from the new repository.
In your script-config.sh file, change SPINDOWN=0 to SPINDOWN=1 to enable spindown.
If you wish to use hd-idle as a service to manage your disks outside of the scope of the Snapraid AIO Script, refer to these additional instructions on the OpenMediaVault forum.

Upgrade

If you are using a previous version of the script, do not use your config file. Please move your preferences to the new script-config.sh found in the archive.
