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.
