ReadyNAS 2100 timeouts case #16618795
Hi there, We've got a ReadyNAS 2100 that we are using as a AD-integrated CIFS/SMB file server. Recently (in the last week-2 weeks) we've had users report that their mapped drives "aren't available...
Anyone have any ideas? In trying to migrate data off the NAS, using RichCopy, it took about 20 attempts to copy off a 4GB file (each attempt errored out between 5% and 85% before finally making it in one pass). During this copy process we saw an average transfer rate of 10-12MB/sec to a Windows Server 2003 file server with a 4-disc 10K SAS RAID5 array with all journaling turned on, for whatever that's worth.
Also, I noticed that even with a 500GB iSCSI volume set up on the ReadyNAS 2100, formatted to NTFS, I am seeing errors in the event log (event id 55) saying the file structure is corrupt. Running a chkdsk on the logical drive always fixes errors in the MFT, deletes unused indexes, and creates indexes as necessary. I am willing to bet this is happening due to the drops in availability, but it certainly doesn't make me feel good about that data that's being stored on the NAS...
Thanks,
Aaron
