Out of Memory 36c readynas 6.60

First, some history...

 

Since update 6.6.0 I have had sporadic issues with the volumes being locked to read only when the data balance and defrag are done.  I have ran into this problem before on older releases, and usually a reboot fixes it.  This time I happened to have a USB key attached to the front usb port and it didnt boot properly.  I removed the USB and it booted, so I figured end of that.

 

Now, for the problem.....

 

Few days later the system locked up.  I couldnt log in and the power button wouldnt respond or bring up the LCD, so I did a hard boot by unplugging the power brick.  Ever since it boots so far and ends up showing a 36c out of memory error.

 

Troubleshooting....

 

I did look around the forums and found this very helpful post https://community.netgear.com/t5/Using-your-ReadyNAS/RN104-immediately-quot-out-of-memory-390-quot-error-after-6-2-2/m-p/1142691#M115998

 

After reading it I was able to boot fine into read only mode, but cannot proceed as I Have SSH disabled and cannot enable it on read only mode.  I'm pretty sure its a snapshot problem (my Data share has 36 snapshots with total share size at 4.2TB).  And again in read only mode I can't "properly" disable snapshots, as its read only.

 

So....

 

Wondering if someone can give me some idea on how best to proceed?

 

Thanks!

    Can you send in your logs (see the Sending Logs link in my sig)?

      Do you still have this problem on 6.6.1?


      Which apps do you have installed?

        Sorry about that, I didn't think I could install 6.6.1 while in read only mode.  I installed it last night and am still getting the memory error.  The only app I have is BitTorrent Sync installed.  After the update I am still able to boot into read only mode, but not into normal.
