How do I migrate a healthy array to a new x86 ReadyNAS? Just plug in new drives and turn on?
How do I migrate a healthy array to a new x86 ReadyNAS? Just plug in new drives and turn on? I think one is a Readynas Pro pioneer edition and the other is a pro edition. Both look about the same...
1. Is there a way to do something better then a soft reset?
I'm talking about something more than just power cycling it but less then a full factory reset. Something in which the data on the hard drive is preserved however forces the readynas to take a second look at accepting that array and perhaps reinstalling these operating system files?
Also, the ReclaimE does show the files which makes me think that data is still good.
2. Is there a way to reload the firmware without deleting the data on the hard drives?
Perhaps its like having Windows not working right but the data is still ok on your hard drive?
Thanks.
Sorry, I don't have any other ideas other than trying to use ssh commands to either forcibly remount the array, or attempt to repair it with btrfs commands.
