Re: ISCSI disconnection issue in firmware 6.9.2

I upgraded to 6.9.2 yesterday and OMG I have been going down most of the day with iSCSI issues. If only I would have known about this problem I would have stayed on the older firmware (pre 6.6.x).

    What are you using iSCSI for?

    Any other services running?

     

    Are you using any apps?

      No apps.

      Was using iSCSI for VMware.

      Further diagnostics....

      Switched over to NFS and same issue. Load comes on....  protocals drop. eth0 eth1 or both.

       

      Switched over to alternate backup ReadyNAS and problem does not reproduce.

      Factory reset this troublesome ReadyNAS and it hangs on boot at 90 to 94%. Still under warranty so I need to figure out next step.

        So the firmware update was a coincidence.

         

        You could have a failing disk.

         

        Did you happen to download the logs before trying the factory reset? If so, have you checked smart_history.log?
