My disk failed and required replacement. I backed up my data on anther disk and the hosting company removed it prior to replacing corrupted disk. Now I have a fresh install (Centos 6.10) and would like to mount the backup disk "sdb". I'm not able to do so as the disk is entirely a single partition. The command doesnt work:
[root@PGE005 ~]# mount -t ext4 /dev/sdb /mnt/disk2
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb,
missing codepage or helper program, or other error
In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
dmesg | tail or so

My backup disk is sdb. The hosting provider support said it seems that there is a compatibility issue between the partition formatter and the mounter. I appreciate any support or ideas that will help me mount the backup disk.
Edit:
[root@pge005 ~]# dmesg | tail
EXT4-fs (sdb): couldn't mount RDWR because of unsupported optional features (400)
dmesg
could also be helpful.
