Repeating GPF
Hi I was wondering if anyone could advise on the cause of the GPF's I'm seeing in the syslog of my ReadyNas Pro. These happen once a week at least an normally result in my having to powercycle the...
Hi again,
After almost 4 weeks of problem free operation after I did a full factory reset and I did not restore any previous settings, the general protection fault issue happened again. I almost believed the problem had disappeared after that last factory reset, but apparently not. I am now running 4.2.20, since that was the last firmware revision I successfully used before these problems started about half a year ago.
Any input on how to debug this issue further would be greatly appreciated!? Are there any tools/software I could run on the readynas that would detect and log if any process violates any memory boundaries for example? Any ideas on how to speed up the time between faults happen? It is tedious to have to wait 4 weeks between each time the problems occur!
Since I see the same issues with approximately the same interval on both my readynas 6 ultra and 2 pro device, with several different firmware revisions (4.2.20, 4.2.21 and 4.2.22) and factory reset did not help in neither of them I must say I suspect firmware issues, maybe in combination with my network environment/configuration... Is there any logs or procedures that could help sort out issues like that? One thing I can think of that is a bit out of the ordinary with my setup is that the ultra 6 is connected to two different LAN subnets on each of the network ports, could that be an issue? Any other similar things to look out for?
