Hey Checkyourlogs Fans,
I know we love Windows Admin Center for pretty much all things Storage Spaces Direct. However, at this time there are a few things that are missing for our wonderful HTML5 UI. The most important thing for Storage Spaces Direct admins is visibility into the ReFS, Deduplication, and Data Integrity logs.
There has been much discussion around the Storage Spaces Direct Community surrounding volumes that go offline due to the DRT (Dirty Region Tracking) tables filling up. This
normally happens when there is a catastrophic event to the cluster such as a hard power failure. Now, it doesn’t happen all the time and from what I have seen in the field only about 5% of cases during a hard failure will this be the case. Now, in the event, you are one of the unlucky 5% you will have event ID’s showing up in the Data Integrity\Crash Recovery event logs.
Because there wasn’t great tracking of this issue, I decided to make a little report and use it as a daily operators report.
Here are some examples of what I want to look for:
-
Storage Spaces Driver Event Log
- I can see that the last event happened over 6 months ago and it was because a drive went offline. I was pulling the disk at this time, but it could indicate a failure that has or is about to happen. So each morning I read this, and if an event pops up, I can see there is something to action.
- I can see that the last event happened over 6 months ago and it was because a drive went offline. I was pulling the disk at this time, but it could indicate a failure that has or is about to happen. So each morning I read this, and if an event pops up, I can see there is something to action.
- For Windows Server 2019 I always use Deduplication, and I can see the statistics here, and I can also check the Deduplication Events to make sure everything looks good.
- Next, you can gather a lot of additional information from the ReFS log regarding stats on the CSV’s for Storage Spaces Direct.
- Now for the secret sauce – Data Integrity Scans are scheduled by default to run monthly for ReFS enabled Storage Spaces Direct volumes. It does this as kind of a background scrubbing to make sure everything is ok. We do not want to see errors in here.
- Lastly the log that you DO NOT want to see activity in is the Data Integrity\Crash Debug. If you see activity in here something bad has happened an,d you need to investigate. As you can see in the example below on Sept 7, 2018, a crash recovery scan was initiated. This does not normally start on a schedule and will only kick in if something bad has happened. As mentioned this could be a Network Failure, Power Failure or other catastrophic event.
Now there are some other goodies in the script like:
- Storage Pool Info
- Storage Enclosure Info
- Physical Disk Info
- Virtual Disk Info
Now you have read this far you are probably wondering where you can find the scripts required for this:

And a scheduled task if you want to automate this. The Schedule task will run if you create a local administrator service account. Even on the Storage Spaces Direct Nodes.

Now, I know the script isn’t perfect by any means but it does the job and even has a mailto function so that you can have this emailed to you on a triggered basis or as a daily health check report.
I hope you find this usefule and if you have ideas for improvements let’s collaborate via Github.
Thanks,
