ReadyNAS 4312 | inactive Volumes
Hello! I am unable to access the drives / data on my Netgear ReadyNAS with 12 drives in RAID6 configuration with the following error in the UI: Initial Error observed in log: Volume: The volu...
The volume data encountered an error and was made read-only. It is recommended to backup your data.
we have rebooted the NAS.
The right move would have been to back up the data. (and NOT reboot).
Remove inactive volumes to use the disk. Disk# 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12.
Don't remove them, as that will result in data loss.
Warning in logs: Volume: Disk test failed on disk in channel 10, model WDC_WD101KFBX-68R56N0, serial 1DGPMKDZ.
There is something else wrong as well. Either the RAID array cannot assemble, or there is BTRFS file system corruption.
So download the log zip file - there is a lot more in that then there is on the logs page. If you have trouble sorting it out, you can send me the full zip in a PM and I'll take a look. You can't attach the zip, you need to upload it to cloud storage and include a link in the PM. Make sure the permissions are set so anyone with the link can download. Note you send a PM using the envelope icon in the upper right of the forum page.
