Firmware update to 6.7.3 - Retry Startup
What have you guys done to my NAS? I have a ReadyNAS 316--would love to give you the exact model, but I can't access the interface now that it won't boot. It started giving me "Retry Startup" on ...
I've sent you a PM
Edit: If you have updated to 6.7.3 and ran into this issue please try USB Boot Recovery with ReadyNAS OS 6.7.4 which is now available!
If you have not yet upgraded please upgrade to 6.7.4 rather than 6.7.3. If your system has already been fixed I would still suggest updating to 6.7.4 the normal way using the web admin GUI.
Hi All,
First time post to the community after owning a ReadyNAS for a few years. Following a successful upgrade to the 6.7.3 firmware, I was having an issue with an iscsi LUN and restarted the ReadyNAS204.
During startup, the device spent a long time checking the filesystem (seemed stuck at 96 - 98%) before displaying "Retry startup".
Netgear RAIDar is able to detect the NAS and displays the status message "Management service is offline". I have downloaded the logs and am happy to provide them if this will result in the issue getting resolved.
Output from the RAIDar diagnositics follows:
Successfully completed diagnostics
System
- No errors found.
Logs
- No errors found.
Please provide advice on how to proceed.
Please see the update solution to this thread above.
OK,
I used the USB recovery method and the download for 6.7.4. The NAS came back up and I was able to login using the web interface. When I did it reported that it was using firmware version 6.7.3 and prompted me to update to firmware 6.7.4, which I did.
The device went through the FW upgrade process and when it pwered back on, I was presented with the "Booting.... 98%" message for a long time and then the "Retry startup" message again.
Please advise on what steps I should take next? RAIDar shows the current firmware is 6.7.4 but that the status is "Management service is offline".
Thank you.
