ReadyNAS 516 self power on configuration
Hello,
Yesterday I manually switched off the ReadyNAS: a maintenance work to the electric power was planned in the afternoon. My plan was to switch it on this morning, but the readynas was up and running since late yesterday.
Thus I suppose the system is configured for auto power on after electric outage.
My question is: there is any way to configure it to power on manually after restoration of the electric power?
My systyem is:
NETGEAR READYNAS 516 (6X3TB ENT) - RN51663E
latest firmware 6.4.2.
Thank you
Francesco
Last state is the setting for ARM units, so the 516 wasn't affected by the bug that was fixed in 6.5.0 Beta 2.
x86_64 units such as the 516 are set to POWER ON after a power failure. There isn't a way to override this except for the way StephenB mentioned.

Hello fdebiasio,
I believe none.
Power State
If the power supply is interrupted due to a power failure, the system returns to its last state once the power supply is restored:
-
If the system was powered on at the time of the power failure, the system powers on when the power supply is restored.
-
If the system was powered off at the time of the power failure, the system remains off when the power supply is restored.
There was a reported problem on this that some NAS units do not go back to its last state after power failure and BETA 6.5.0-T338 (Beta 2) included a fix for it.
Welcome to the community!
