expanding ReadyNAS NV (RNV1-S2-0000)

Not sure if I should create a separate thread for this, but for now I'll add it here...
Everything went find with installing new disks and creating the volume. After it finished syncing I restored the EVERYTHING config backup, and that seemed to go fine. Then I noticed a problem on a PC running WinNUT that monitors the ReadyNAS NV. Since the config restored correctly, I assumed the UPS monitoring would pick up automatically, but the WinNUT client kept saying the UPS on the ReadyNAS's IP address was unavailable. I checked FrontView | System | Power and the UPS Monitoring section was restored correctly, with "Enable network monitoring of attached UPS" checked, and the "Hosts allowed access:" set to my LAN.
In the end I had to uncheck "Enable network monitoring of attached UPS," click Apply, then recheck it and click Apply again. The WinNUT client on the PC responded immediately and it is no longer popping up status messages every five minutes.
Just thought this should be documented. I'll create a separate thread so it will be more noticeable.
