ReadyNAS 2100 disk replaced - no auto sync
I hot replaced a disk in my 2100 this weekend (growing reallocated sector count). However the 2100 didn't automatically sync the array after I replaced the disk. I believe it should have automatically synced the array. This morning after about 12 hours of no log activity I rebooted the NAS, which is now syncing happily. Firmware 4.2.19. Is this expected behavior?

- strikeAspirantSimilar situation, but on an NV. Auto-sync started automatically...but the two warnings and the Dead identifier next to Disk 1 in the Health screen had me worried for a second.

Please keep the original replaced disk on your hand until the sync finished.
Please user smart tool to check all of you disk after the sync finished. - kipcole9AspirantThis array synced properly after reboot and all is ok.
However it would still appear to be a bug that hot-swapping a disk doesn't initialize and re-sync unless a reboot takes place.
