RNDP600E Readynas Pro Pioneer Edition - Unable to access shares
Howdy,
I have been running Readynas Pro Pioneer Edition successfully for many years, but recently I have not been able access my shares.
I can see the NAS via Raidar Utility (it is described as healthy), and access via Server Page and Shares page using HTTPS in a browser but that is it.
- There are no shares listed, and I can not add any new shares without receiving error message, or the screen refreshing without applying changes
- On my Windows 10 PC I cannot see the NAS in network, and cannot map network drive to it using NAS name or IP Address.
- Under services, the only standard file protocol enabled is HTTPS. If I try and enable anything else the screen refreshing without the change being applied.
- I am running Firmware 4.2.28, and trying to update to 4.2.30 was unsuccessful.
I have looked at other posts about Windows Credentials issue etc. but that has not worked either, and starting to run out of ideas.
If I could make changes to the settings I think I would be able to fix it, but because nothing will apply I am really stuck.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Rohan
The 4GB root volume was indeed full. This has now been fixed.

Do you have a backup?
Sounds like you could have a full 4GB OS partition.

Thanks for the advice and warm welcome!
Sounds like a plausible explanation, we did have a faulty drive that I took ages to replace so it probably filled up with alerts in the interim.
From looking at some other posts about this issue, it appears I have to engage Netgear support to resolve and there is nothing I can do to fix this myself. Is this correct?
Cheers,
Rohan

If SSH is enabled you can likely fix it yourself. If you use paid Netgear support (my.netgear.com) you can ask for per-incident support.
