ReadyNAS 214 volume is set to Read Only, please help.
My ReadyNAS 214 suddenly set to Read Only, And when I go to the logs, it just said "Volume: The volume data encountered an error and was made read-only. It is recommended to backup your data." I h...
Jackvd It seems I have exactly the same problem as you. I also do some TimeMachine space updating or deleting. After that, the data volumn is locked.
If you could fix the problem instead of restoring the NAS, please let me know.
StephenB did look at my logs, but he couldn't find the root cause because the data didn't go back far enough.
That was probably my fault since I did perform a reinstall of the OS from the Bootmenu.
The other thing that didn't help is that my volume is encrypted and StephenB explained to me that he never had a setup like that.
Anyway; the logs showed massive checksum errors while writing so somehow the OS had a hick-up.
So I did a factory reset and reinstalled the complete system....
I did it before a couple of years ago after two of my disks got corrupt in my Raid5 setup đ
I have backups of all my data and the system restored 2.7TB up until now. Probably another two days for it to complete.
Maybe your issue is different and if you have the complete logs, StephenB can have a look at them.
If you have to do a factory reset, make sure you follow the right sequence. There are instructions in the community that you can follow.
Sorry I couldn't help and good luck!
PS. it is weird though, that your problem sounds just like mine.....
