Disk Removal Detected but all looks ok? ReadyNAS NV+ V2 running 5.1.13
Hi. Over the last few days I've tried to create a new Windows 7 VHD which took days, so I aborted it. In investigating why it was taking so long I discovered that the NAS network interface was only r...
That's just it; nothing appears to be happening. No rebuild or anything that I can determine. Is there a way to trigger a rebuild from the CLI or should I just yank it out/bung it back in?
Try hovering over the volume and disk icons in RAIDar (or the admin web ui) and see if you get more status info.
No more info than is already on offer I'm afraid. Is there a way to kick-off the RAID rebuild manually from the CLI, or should I just "do it"?
You can try removing the disk with the NAS running, and then re-insert it (also with the NAS running).
It'd be wise to make sure you have an up to date backup first.
I take it there's no way to kick-off the RAID rebuild at the CLI then. Oh well, I removed the disk, waited a few minutes and in that time the NAS recognised the disk failure/removal. When I re-inserted the disk it thought it was a new disk, tested it, and then started to re-sync. It didn't recognise it as a disk that was previously in use, should it have done?
I've historically had problems with disk 1 on this NAS. Also opening and closing the door causes the NAS to "chirp" a lot of the time. When I first got it, it did this, and after a Support call the NAS was replaced, and the new one did/does the same, so I've assumed it's "normal" behaviour although I can't think why it should be.
