We don't have an ETA yet. But those warnings can be safely ignored. If you'd prefer fixing it up from the command line, I can post instructions.

Hi rimmerhg,
Did you get a screenshot of the diagnostic message you have encountered? If yes, kindly post it.
Since you mentioned the NAS is working correctly by the time you have encountered the diagnostic message, what is the model of the NAS you are referring to? Is it still working just fine as of now?
Regards,

ReadyNAS RN314 4x 1TB WD RED Raid 6 This is a copy of the screen data...... Successfully completed diagnostics System Logs 2017-01-15 11:18:27: home.mount: Directory /home to mount over is not empty, mounting anyway. 2017-01-15 07:00:41: home.mount: Directory /home to mount over is not empty, mounting anyway. 2017-01-14 14:20:18: home.mount: Directory /home to mount over is not empty, mounting anyway. 2017-01-14 07:00:42: home.mount: Directory /home to mount over is not empty, mounting anyway. 2017-01-13 20:29:43: home.mount: Directory /home to mount over is not empty, mounting anyway. 2017-01-13 18:30:57: home.mount: Directory /home to mount over is not empty, mounting anyway. 2017-01-13 18:26:16: home.mount: Directory /home to mount over is not empty, mounting anyway. This was obtained by clicking on the diagnostics button on the RAIDar app The unit has firmware 6.6.1 and this error only appears when the unit has booted the times correspond to power on times. This has only appeared on my 6.6.x units after the 6.6.x update my other 314 units running 6.5.x do not show it only my 6.6.x units. The unit is working fine I just checked after the upgrade as this is good practise after upgrade so I can record it in the change logs for my clients. Can anyone advise or is this a bug introduced in 6.6.x firmware. (Is it something I should be concerned about ? as I would like to update my 10 production 314 & 316 Units to 6.6.x Kind regards, rimmerhg

This means that at some point the /home mount point was not mounted but the system wrote some data under /home anyway so there's some data on the root volume that should be on the data volume.
Can you send in your logs (see the Sending Logs link in my sig)?
