After upgrading to 6.7.1 on RN214 no volumes can be loaded
Hello, I just installed the new upgrade 6.7.1 on my RN214 and got the confusing message that my volumes can`t be loaded. It`s the same problem others have: ReadyNAS 516 just upgraded to 6.7....

You could perhaps try ReadyNASOS 6.7.3-T283 (Beta 1)
There's a fix in there for one possible reason why a volume may not mount. I wonder if you ran into that.

This seems to be an increasing issue - see my thread here to: https://community.netgear.com/t5/New-to-ReadyNAS/ReadyNAS-516-just-upgraded-to-6-7-1-and-data-volume-has-not/m-p/1280744#M13926

As I said here, https://community.netgear.com/t5/Using-your-ReadyNAS/Remove-inactive-volumes-to-use-the-disk-Disk-1-2-3-4/m-p/1276321#M129337, I doubt that you will see a lot of people here talking about their dead toaster. It's a storage forum, so yes, there is a lot of people talking about storage issues.
In recent threads, there is a bit of everything, full root, dead or erroring disks, broken RAID array, BTRFS corruption, etc. Any of these can lead to an "inactive volume" in red in the GUI. I help on a fair bit of dead volumes threads (the ones where not all the logs are necessary as I can't access the logs sent to mdgm), and I haven't seen any pattern so far.
While I believe that the system could and should be more detailled about what's causing the volume to be "inactive", https://community.netgear.com/t5/Idea-Exchange-for-ReadyNAS/Change-the-incredibly-confusing-error-message-quot-remove/idi-p/1271658, I don't see any proof, or concerning pattern, of an issue in a recent Firmware leading to particularly high volume failure rate.
Of course, that's only my opinion.

Hi,
I can only repeat myself: "I just installed the new upgrade 6.7.1 on my RN214 and got the confusing message that my volumes can`t be loaded." So there must be an issue with the new firmware and it`s not only me.
While I believe that the system could and should be more detailled about what's causing the volume to be "inactive"That's a good idea.
Best regards
