Help - USB Health Scanner - Scan Results Blank

Sean Rhodes

Regular Contributor
I have an ASUS RT-AC3200 running FW 384.6. I have a SanDisk Cruzer 8Gb USB on the USB 2.0 port, which is all working fine.

Sometimes the router will lock-up and I have to perform a hard reboot. When this happens, my USB doesnt always mount, so I have to unplug and re-attach. When I run the health scanner on the USB, the status window is always blank. Is there any way to fix this?

When I check the syslog, it tells me that it ran, but it doesn't give me a status:

Code:
Jan 13 13:50:41 rc_service: httpd 285:notify_rc start_diskscan
Jan 13 13:50:41 disk_monitor: Scan manually...
Jan 13 13:50:41 disk_monitor: start...
Jan 13 13:50:41 disk_monitor: done
Jan 13 13:50:51 disk_monitor: be idle

Can anyone please help?
 
What do you use the USB stick for?

What is it formatted to, and how did you carry out the format operation?

The spec says it also has a USB 3.0 port; does it behave the same on that port?
 
I use it for entware and also for backing up my syslog and other log files, my jffs backup etc.

I have 3 partitions ext3 for entware , swap, fat32 for data (so I can directly mount in windows or OSx if I need to)

I usually use rescan under Health Scanner.

The other option would be to ssh into my router unmount sda and then:
Code:
e2fsck -p /dev/sda1
fatfsck -a /dev/sda3
and then re-mount.

I assumed that's what rescan is supposed to do?

Note: Entware is always busy so I can't unmount and run e2fsck unless it didn't mount the first time
