ReadyNAS 204 / 6.3.5 keeps crashing
Hi, my ReadyNAS 204 with OS 6.3.5, Antivir, SMB Plus and Plex installed keeps crashing... I am (among others) using it to record the video from multiple Raspberry Pi based cameras - These record ...
Do you have bitrot protection and/or snapshots turned on for the relevant shares, if so turn them off?
There are a couple of things you can do to try to isolate the problem:
1. Test all the disks with vendor tools.
2. Turn off as many apps as you can and antivirus off and see if the problem recurs. If the problem goes away, turn each thing back on in turn and see when it recurs.
3. You can also try an OS reinstall if all the above fail to reveal a cause.
If you do identify the cause , perhaps open a support ticket with Netgear.
Hi,
Bit-rot-protection, compression and snapshots are all off for all shares
checking the disks with vendor tools it a bit hard work for this, i understand i have to take disk by disk to a PC, perform the check there, and resync them ? I expect any disk errors to be reported by the NAS itself without having to use any external systems. I'm using WD40EFRX-68WT0N0 on Firmware 82.00A82, and all 4 look good on the admin GUI.
I've now turned off all apps including Antivirus except dropbox sync to see if the problem persists, will update here if i find something.
I've also checked the logs to no avail, there is just nothing in there anymore until the restart - But i found that the logfile from the radius app is still written although the app was deinstalled already some time ago, so it seems there are some leftovers of this.
