Just upgraded to 6.7.0....
And the NAS is stuck at 99% booting up, If there are any Beta testers about, Just wondering if this is normal due to the significant changes in the firmware, or if it's borked for the second time in ...
I think it's a problem with any NAS with more than one fan. It's fine on my Pro2, which has only one fan. I wonder what will happen on the 4200 with it's 4 fans. I use my pro2 as a test box and it's the only one I immediately upgrade with new OS versions. The others are all still on 6.6.0 because of the problems associated with 6.6.1.
If your system is locking up try an OS Re-install. If that doesn't fix it it would be best if you could boot it to volume read-only mode and download the logs and send those in (see the Sending Logs link in my sig).
After sailing through the readycloud outage I ran into an 6.7.0 upgrade issue....
Yesterday I checked for a FW upgrade option (running 6.6.1), but the system indicated that there was no upgrade available.
I then downloaded the 6.7.0 FW manually, but got a server error and the FW was not applied.
This morning suddenly a window popped up and indicated that the FW was uploaded and that I had to reboot the system to install it.
The system never got through the reboot....
I manually rebooted again and then the system quickly got to 38% and stopped for a long time. When it got up again, it indicated on
the lcd-display that it had no network...
I manually rebooted again and it stopped at 41%, took a very long time to finish up, but had a network connection. I noticed an error with
the UPS communication, but the biggest problem was that it did not load the data volume. All the disks were red. I had this issue last year, but then the usb-stick with the encryption key was not in the system :-).
But now it was...
I restarted the system again and it ran to 44% before stalling again for a long time. This time I saw the message on the lcd that it did found the encryption key.
But when the adminscreen came up, the volume was still red and unusable...
Then I performed an OS reinstall from the bootmenu.
The system quickly got to 45%, indicated that it found the encryption key but still came up with no data volume....
I will upload the log from the latest reboot.
Hopefully you guys can have a quick look at it.
Thx; Jack

Ouch. What model NAS?
This might be a case where you need paid support.
RN214 - 6.7.0 - 4x 3TB Seagate ST3000VN - x-raid - raid5 - encryption
After having two systems hit by the readycloud issue, payed support is probably not the right word :-)
We'll see.
Thx.
