readynas 4220 memory segmentation fault
This unit has been humming along for several years when this error started to pop up following the 6.10.7 upgrade.
I am able to access via ssh but the management service is not running. The web server is and I do make a connection to the web server. It is just that frontview is not running.
Network shares are available.
I did physically re-seat the memory to no effect.
I am able to download the log package via RAIDar.
The results of diagnostics via RAIDar are cryptic. It lists these two system errors:
- Disk 1 has 8 Current Pending Sectors
- Volume root is degraded
And nothing in the logs section.
This leads me to believe that perhaps something in front view is broken?
Is there a way to restart the management service via the cmd line?
As a last resort I will offload the data and factory default the unit. I would just rather not lose all that time as it has 12-10TB drives and moving data is a job.
Thank you in advance for any help you can give. It is much appreciated.
Upgrading to 6.10.6 brought back the problem in the same lib along with the failure of the management interface after a short period of time.

Downgrading to 6.10.5 eliminated the problem. I wonder if the clam can be updated independently of the OS. This is from the 6.10.6 release notes:
- Antivirus ClamAV is upgraded to version 0.103.2+dfsg.
It looks like stability is restored at the 6.10.5 level.

The second error suggests something is wrong with RAID array for the OS (and the first says that you are seeing disk errors on disk 1).
I'd try powering down, removing disk 1, and then try rebooting the NAS as read-only. If that results in normal access to the nas admin ui, then I'd test the disk with vendor tools. Personally I run both the full read test and a full write zeros/erase test.

Is there a way to restart the management service via the cmd line?You can restart the apache2 with
# systemctl restart apache2
readynasd is also a service, so you could try
# systemctl status readynasd # systemctl restart readynasd

Which disk is "Disk 1". Is it the disk labeled "sda" or is it "channel 1" when viewing the disk status drop down in the management interface?
I'm going to shutdown and remove the disk tagged as "channel 1" and reboot.
Executing the restart on the readynasd service brought the interface back up.The error on the last line does not concern me. The "/data/video" share was old and has been removed. That error should no longer occur.

Replaced the disk located in channel 1 and the "8 pending sectors" message is now gone. While the messages "Volume root is degraded" (existing) and "Volume Data is degraded" (new) do appear I am fairly confident that they will no longer appear once the array completes resyncing. That process will take more than 24 hours so I will post the results here upon completion.
