JBOD to X-RAID2 on a 104
I have a RN104 with a 4Tb drive (6.2.0) (currently pretty full, 525GB free of 3.49TB, but I may be able to free ~1.6 TB). I am waiting for delivery of 2 x 4TB (WD-Red). I wish to have a simple X-RAID...
Sunday 12-04-2015. Away from home, checking mails, mail from NAS,
12-04-2015 0:00:43 Miscellaneous: Snapshot 'c_1428793243' is successfully created for share or LUN 'readydrop'.
12-04-2015 3:00:02 System: Scheduled poweroff was delayed.
12-04-201513:02:52 Volume: Volume 'data' has been rebuilt.
Then
13:07:25 Volume: Volume 'data' usage exceeds 95 % of size (3.5 TB).
But… I just added a 3rd disk, the Volume should be 2x 3.5 TB….?????
Same warning mail received every 10 minutes until I come back home, at 1:00a.m., for a total of 681 emails so far.
Back home, flick the switch to wake up NAS display, …58% free…
Refresh dashboard. 4.19TB of 7.13TB free (58.76% - fine….)
What’s the fuss all about?
But NAS continues to mail warnings. Even after I woke up display, refreshed dashboard and checking logs.
Overview: data = 4.19 of 7.13 TB
Volume: Pie charts looks fine, 2.94 used 4.19 free
Just received another warning. (the third since back home and checking NAS)
Decided to reboot NAS (what else to do?)
Try to reboot the NAS using the Dashboard Power button: Popup windows saying “The device is busy”, but while taking note Windows alerts me that NAS has disappeared from the file explorer, NAS is rebooting.
Back to the Log page, Monday 13.04.2015,
1:03:43 System: ReadyNASOS background service started.
1:33 Refreshed the log page. Warnings seem to have stopped.after the reboot.
But why the incorrect warnings in the first place?.
I have the 6.2.0 firmware installed. I checked the upgrades/bug fixes in 6.2.1 and 6.2.2: I don’t see anything relating to incorrect warnings.
There is a bag fix on 6.2.2 relating to volume expansion, but my expansion DID complete.
