HOW TO SHUTDOWN READYNAS OS6 RACKMOUNTED RR4360 FROM SSH and UPDATE FIRMWARE FROM SSH
Model RR4360S
Firmware update failed. System became stalled at reboot had to force down, then powered on. Most updated to 6.10.5 from 6.10.4. Apache did not install so the Admin page is inaccessible.
Everything is in working order minus the ability to manage from admin page.
My questions:
How do you restart from SSH?
How do you reload firmware from ssh?
How do you verify recovery image from ssh?
How do you restart the system successfully from ssh?
How do you download the configuration from ssh in order to restore?
Thanks in advance...
*System is not internet capable.
Thanks,
rnutil --help didn't really provide much info. I was hoping there was a "netgear" doc that isn't readily availble would be known out in the ether. These systems are useless if your admin page doesn't work. Not much info for those that prefer to work inside the shell.
I was able to fix my system by killing smb and nfs and turning off the machines that had an iscsi connection. This allowed the apache to stablize in safe mode and me to reload the firmware. The install was successful, but it still did not restart on its own; I had to force it off about an hour of waiting.

Shut down from SSH: rn_shutdown
Reboot from SSH: systemctl reboot
Reload firmware from SSH. Not the recommended method, if one even exists. Use OS re-install from the boot menu: How-do-I-access-the-boot-menu-on-my-ReadyNAS-4360
Verify recovery image from SSH: What recovery image?
Download configuration. I've not found a utility that does it. It's a .zip file and you can look at the contents of one to see what it includes. It doesn't have to be complete -- whatever is in the .zip will be restored. Note that the OS re-install above does not require you restore the configuration, it is retained with only a couple changes (DHCP enabled if previously was set to static IP, network bonds are broken, and admin/root password are restored to default password).
For more SSH utuils, try rnutil --help.
