Readynas 204 - v6.9.2 - Read only

It seems my RN204 decided to put shares into Ready Only mode. How do I find out why, and how do I fix it?

 

Found this in dmesg.log:

    Generally this is happening when the system decides that allowing writes to the volume will put data at risk.  That suggests the the best fix is to destroy and recreate the volume, and then reload the data from backup.

     

    You can download the log zip file, and look for clues.

     

    You could attempt to repair the volume using btrfs shell commands (at your own risk).  I strongly recommend ensuring you have a full backup before attempting that.

      Thank you. Yeah, I'll make sure to have a backup before proceeding. I don't really understand from logs what has happened and why it puts mounts in read-only.

        Usually it's because the system is seeing btrfs errors.
