ReadyNas 104 stuck in read only mode
Hi Folks, Hoping for some help here. My issue started with an alert on a disk 1 failure, a day after that the NAS froze up and the only way to reboot it was to power cycle the system. After tha...
Where would you like me to send the logs?
To the email address mentioned in the link I gave.
Ah, sorry, missed that link in the page, it's sent.
USB Boot Recovery is not meant to be used to update the firmware, but you've done that now.
This looks like a data recovery situation to me.
If you don't have a backup, you should refrain from trying anything else yourself and contact support, also provide them with the logs and they can discuss the cost involved with you.You could of course try backing up the data on the ordinary file shares (if you have some of those and can access them) but for the iSCSI LUNs you would need assistance from support.
The iSCSI LUN functionality depends on read/write access to the filesystem. As the filesystem has gone read-only you can no longer access them.
The USB recovery was not mean to update the firmware, it was used to get the NAS back to a booting and useable state.
I sure hope your exaggerating when you say this is a data recovery situation that will cost $$$. This is supposed to be a raid 5 volume where a single failed drive should have no affect on the system. Instead it has caused the entire system to go unstable. I didn't expect to shell out $600 for an unstable and senstive NAS system to go haywire over a single failed drive.
