After a panic, you really need to collect the core dump right away, else the data scrolls out of logs, etc.  Just do what you can.

 

thanks for trying!

@softraid-support ok, link to core dump in email case 01182069

I came home today to find the iMac unresponsive, so I did a hard shutdown and a dump after coming back up.

Run this command in terminal to see what driver version is loading, if any:

sudo kextstat -b com.softraid.driver.SoftRAID

 

If you get no response, run this command and see if your driver loads:

sudo kmutil load -p /Library/Extensions/SoftRAID.kext

Updated to the latest OS 11.4 and SoftRaid. So far no crashes or  kernel panics.

@antonyrock

Sorry I do not always understand your exact meaning.

Your volumes are now mounted? Does the SoftRAID app have a problem launching?

@antonyrock

When you launch SoftRAID,  you get an error that the application failed? Or the Monitor failed?

When you look at the menu bar, is the SoftRAID icon there? (the SoftRAID Monitor is running)?

@softraid-support

we are moving in a circle with you.. I have already sent screenshots and videos of what exactly happens when I run soft raid.. when I run soft raid - see screenshot. There is no SoftRAID icon in the menu bar.. what should I do? I am ready to cooperate

@antonyrock

the fact the Monitor is not running (has crashed) is a good piece of information. We are planning on creating a debug version of SoftRAID, perhaps tomorrow. It will collect additional information and hopefully help us solve this.

One more question: when you restart, does the monitor (icon) ever show up? Does it disappear when you run the app, or disappear on its own?

Engineering wants to check on these two specific issues:

Is the Monitor showing before you are running SoftRAID? (earlier question above)

If you startup with no SoftRAID disks connected, does the Monitor icon show ?

  A)if you then launch SoftRAID does the status change?

  B) If you connect the disks, does anything change?
