ReadyNas 2120 v2 lost configuration after blackout

 

Hi!

We have two readynas 2120v2. recently they started to lose whole configuration everytime a blackout happens.
When they back online, they forget every settings (Static IP, Disk configuration and so on).
If i manage to do a graceful shutdown, i always lose configuration.
We're using firmware 6.10.5.

Do you have any suggestion?

Thanks!

  • If they are not on an UPS that's linked to the NAS to shut down when the power gets low, that is a risk; but it'[s unusual it happens every time.  Any chance your OS partition is getting full?

        If you are comfortable using ssh, then you can look at it directly from the linux command line.

         

        The other option is to download the log zip file from the logs page, and look at volume.log.  Scroll down until you see this:

        === df -h ===
        Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
        udev             10M  4.0K   10M   1% /dev
        /dev/md0        4.0G  1.1G  2.7G  29% /
        tmpfs           1.9G     0  1.9G   0% /dev/shm

        The blue part is the OS partition.

         

        Scroll down a bit further to see inode use:

        === df -i ===
        Filesystem      Inodes IUsed   IFree IUse% Mounted on
        udev            187949   235  187714    1% /dev
        /dev/md0       1048576 12765 1035811    2% /
        tmpfs           188839     1  188838    1% /dev/shm
