I've started it, and will report back when it's dond!
There is also a lot more information available in the downloaded log .zip file than in the log in the GUI. So much so, it can be daunting to try and find a clue as to what is going on.
When I was having an apparent lock-up problem, I left an SSH session open on a PC with it running top, and I found that the readynasd process was getting to 100% of CPU use and basically locking out most everything else (but, fortunately, not the SSH session and top). The root cause for that probably isn't germane to your situation, but the same process may help find what yours is.
Ah that's helpful. I didn't know the downloaded logs had more. I'll let this disk test finish, then proceed from there. Thanks!
