ReadyNAS 3100: VBAT power is out of normal range
Hi all!
I have a ReadyNAS 3100 that started logging the following error:
VBAT power is out of normal range [expected: 3.30 current: 2.94].
Assuming the error was referring to the CMOS battery, I replaced the CR2032 lithium coin cell on the motherboard with a known good battery, and it's still complaining about the VBAT voltage.
Is there another 3.3-V battery somewhere that needs to be replaced?
Thanks in advance for any help!

That's odd, because I don't see any reference to VBAT in /etc/frontview/sensors/RN3100.conf. Have you been independently doing something with lmsensors?

Hi Sandshark,
I inherited management of this device, and I assume it's bone stock. Having written that, is there a way to enable SSH so I can poke around and see what I have in /etc/frontview/sensors/RN3100.conf?
Thanks for your help!

On the Settings page, just click on SSH to enable it. You then log in as user root using the NAS admin password.
That said, boot_info.log does not contain that type of info on my various ReadyNAS, so I believe your predecessor has done some significant tweaking of the OS. In order to do so, SSH would have to have been enabled. So if the SSH button has a green bar on the Settings page, it's already enabled.
