Losing internet connection constantly
Firmware 6.4.0 ReadyNAS RN2120-100NAS The scenario was that the volume was reporting near full but I was only using 1/8 of the available space. I found that it was the Snapshot feature for each...
While testing today, I have noticed that the Eth0 LED is solid, but I can still connect. So I don't know what to make of the blinking or non-blinking of the LEDs.
I can see you have SSH enabled and have been running rsync from the shell. Do you lose connectivity after starting rsync from the shell or is the loss of connectivity unrelated to that?
You still have some snapshots in the backend that weren't upgraded when you updated to 6.2.x. They don't show in the UI but they are there.
The 2120 has a 5 year limited hardware warranty. You have not registered your unit yet. When did you purchase it? If your RN2120 was purchased on/after June 1, 2014 it would have lifetime chat support.
I have lost connectivity whether running RSYNC or not, but it does indeed lose connection during transfer. I specifically ordered these newer devices because of the newer RSYNC versions and issues with compaibility (While the other devices were aged and I feared failure at some point).
I'm not exactly sure how to view snapshots on the backend. Can you tell me what they might be called so that I can delete them through the terminal?
I ordered in the last 18 months. Let me check on that - that is very good news. Thank you!
Any ideas?
I suppose this issue has resolved itself. The only theory I have is that the system was dropping connectivity during the snapshot deletion process.
