ReadyNAS 214 BTRFS corruption - appears to be out of memory related
My ReadyNAS RN214, which has been reliably running for years, suddenly went read-only late yesterday afternoon. The UI log just had this ominous message: Jan 30, 2023 16:54:47 Volume: The volume...
Thanks for sharing this. I am wondering what apps and services you have running, and also what firmware version.

No - unfortunately it is not socketed, so it can not be upgraded.
I've attached the kernel log (I'm afraid as a PDF as the forum won't let me attach a text file) - looks like the OOM reaper went after apache2 and syslog-journald (which, in the latter case, kept respawning).
But the processes are using relatively little memory (although, what is oath2-vault and how do I kill it? I assume it's related to ReadyNAS Vault but that is disabled and has never been enabled) - it looks to me like the majority of memory is used by buffers/cache (~1.2GB). I wonder what is causing that, and is there a way through the UI to tune it?
Here's a landscape version of the log, not much better but slightly more readable....
