ESXi reports "All Paths Down" for ReadyNAS hosted NFS share
Hiya - looking for some feedback from the community on an issue I'm seeing. Thanks in advance for any insights. Some background: We're using two ReadyNAS 3200's to host virtual machines via NFS. ...
Yeah, I'm unsure how I feel about it. If it's true, than it undermines the concept of the ReadyNAS brand being enterprise grade.
The tech I spoke to said that the yearly rebuild is recommended for data center environments, or when the storage is under consistent heavy load. If I remember correctly he said it's recommended because the arrays pick up file system corruption that causes performance and stability issues over time. If you're just using the ReadyNAS to store relatively static data and your I/O load is low, maybe it's a different story.
The article you linked is good - it also notes that a factory re-set and full rebuild is needed to take advantage of most of the 'major' firmware upgrades. To stay on the topic of this thread (NFS instability), I'm curious to see if a full factory reset on newest firmware will resolve the issue.
