S2D (Win Serv 2016 Datacenter) - Reboot caused degraded state, repair loops and bad block - Guidance

Hey all,

I am dealing with an issue on a 2-node Hyper-V Cluster with Storage Spaces Direct (Windows Server 2016 Datacenter). Every month I will apply the latest windows cumulative update using the following steps:

  1. Drain roles on HV-01
  2. Verify roles are all on HV-02
  3. Install updates
  4. Restart HV-01
  5. Monitor Storage job repairing using "Get-StorageJob" and "Get-VirtualDisk" commands.
  6. Repeat process for HV-02

This week HV-01 had just finished repairing and now states HV-01-VOL1's Operational Status is "No Redundancy" and Health Status is "Unhealthy". HV-02-VOL2 is showing as OK and Healthy.

HV-01 is in a paused state so we are currently running on a single hypervisor.

On Server Manager on HV-02 the following error is beginning to crop up:

HV-02 7 Error Disk System HV-02 7 Error Disk System

And:

The device, \Device\Harddisk9\DR9, has a bad block.

On Failover Cluster Manager all Physical Disks are showing as healthy with the Virtual Disk in a Unhealthy, NoRedundancy state. I have restarted HV-01 hoping that the repair job corrects the issue but it went into the same failed state and shows the repair job as suspended.

This is an issue I have not encountered (nor hoped to encounter) any advice would be greatly appreciated.
