ReadyNas 314 - admin page unavailable and status display shows usfdapi_file_flush+253
I have a ReadyNAS 314 with 3-off 4TB WD Purple disks. It gets into a state where the data is still accessible but the admin page won't appear on my browser. I have previously rebooted it via the main...

Apr 19, 2019Hi JohnEvans, any progress on your side? The "...flush+253"-error could be caused by a lack of available space on your disk-array. Should that be the case, I would suggest to remove files until not more than 70% to 80% of the array is occupied. Depending on what you are trying to write to it even 90% might be still ok. However, you should get more space, though, to avoid this kind of scenario, in case the assumptions made here turn out to be true.
Kind regards

Can you download the log zip file with RAIDar ( https://kb.netgear.com/20684/ReadyNAS-Downloads#raidar )

Hi Stephen
I wrote an extensive reply including the zip file but found this community system won't accept zip files. Unfortunately the extensive reply disappeared when inadvertently stepped back a page. If you can identify a way of my getting the zip file (or some of its contents) to you I am happy to try. Meanwhile I will go with the "80% capacity" idea.
Thanks for your interest
John

You don't want to post your log zip file publicly, as there is some information leakage when you do that.
Netgear mods (for instance JohnCM_S) are in the best position to analyze your logs (and I don't work for them). Hopchen is a former Netgear employee who also has been analyzing some logs.
The best approach is to send them a private message (click on the envelope at the top of the forum page). Include a download link for your logs (dropbox, google drive, etc).

Hi Roland
I have two external drives that are hitting 80% capacity. I have reformatted them and will reduce the volume of data on them and see what happens.
Thanks for your interest
John
