Constant read/write disk activity
Am currently using a RN3220 as shared storage for a 2 node Hyper-V cluster via an Iscsi connection. Recently had to
do a factory reset of the NAS. Before I recreated the Iscsi Lun's, I updated to the latest firmware at the time (v 6.5.0).
Ever since then there is constant disk read/write activity. The HD activity light are constantly flickering. Obviously
this is starting to impact the VM's performance.
The only services running are http, https, smb and ssh. Snapshots are disabled and sync writes are disabled on
the iscsi Lun's.
Do you still have this problem on 6.5.1?

Can you send in your logs (see the Sending Logs link in my sig)?
Seeing you have SSH enabled what does the output of the 'top' command look like?

Hi,
I havent updated to that version yet, The earliest I could would be this weekend because I would have to shut
the cluster down to do so.
Have there been any other reports of disk issues like mine with the 6.5.0 version firmware?
