Management SErvice is offline 6.7.5
I have a ReadyNAS Pro 2 with 6.7.5
I had lost a hard drive and decided to do a factory reset to remove the RAID array. After I did that, I have had this issue.
I have taken out the hard drive and reformated it to complete wipe them. I also used an spare drive just to see if it would install.
When I did this I was told that the drives were dirty and I need to format them again. I did that via Raidar.
Now all I get is the button for offline set up (in Raidar). I can't pull logs or ssh into the nas anymore (factory reset) That does not work. Just get a none responsive web page.
I even tried the USB install and that did not seem to do anything. All I have now is a NAS with blinking blue light.
Any other ideas?
Nothing seems to work.
I have tried OS reinstall, factory reset. USB recovery.
SSH is not working
I have run out of ideas.
Thanks
To use USB Boot Recovery you would have to use the USB Boot Recovery for RAIDiator-x86 with the OS6 firmware renamed to RAIDiator-x86-something. However USB Boot Recovery can have side effects for legacy x86 devices such as yours.
The firmware on the flash was corrupt. Your system should now be fixed.

If https://nas-ip-address/fwbroker is responding, then try installing 6.8.0 using that inferface.
If not, then try a USB recovery with 6.8.0 instead of 6.7.5.

Sorry I forgot to tell you that the fwbroker is not responding either.
I have tried the USB with 6.8.0 RC3 but I don't seem to be getting it to apply.
I am going to try with another USB drive. I just notice that 6.8.0 just came out. So I downloaded that last night but did not have a change to try it yet.
Thanks again for the suggestion. This is the first time it has been this difficult. I have been using 6.X since it came out on this readynas and have had no real issues.
