ReadyNAS 104 upgraded to OS 6.4.0 shutdown hang
Following upgrade to this release I am unable to shutdown. System hangs with "Shutting dow. Goodbye." - I left it in this state overnight. Power must be removed to complete shutdown.
Can confirm beta 3 fixes the no shoutown with custom MTU issue.
I would stay on 6.2.5 if I had my time again
BJB, why on earth would you even think about "upgrading" to a firmware release you know doesn't work?
I'd steer well clear if I were you.
That Beta 1 release doesn't seem to mention shutdown issues, so I'll hold fire I think, especially given words like "hopefully" are used in the list of fixes.
ColinR1,
Exactly. This is why I was clarifying the directions I was being given. Did not make sense to me to upgrade to firmware that has issues unless there is a known trigger for the issues that can be avoided 100%.
Jophus, you mentioned you would have stayed on 6.2.5.....The other question is let's say I wait until the 6.4.X firmware has fixed this issue......Do I understand the suggestion correctly that I should go to an interim version first since I am way back on 6.1.9? Or can I just forge ahead? If I do need an interim version, I just need a link on the process of how to obtain it and install it.
Not used to being out of the loop. On the PC side I can give the advice....I am just not up to speed on the the Readynas firmware stuff...:smileyhappy:
Thanks,
BJB
