ReadyNAS 526 Unclean Shutdown
Hi all, Today one of my ReadyNAS 526's was uncleanly shutdown due to an error on my part... The unit was idle at the time and has come back online but I am keen to understand how an unclean shutdown ...
The file system itself is designed to handle unclean shutdown cleanly (with no need for file system checking).
The software raid underneath is generally a bigger concern, as lost writes can result in a RAID array that is out of sync. If it does fall out of sync, the volume won't be mounted (so that definitely didn't happen in your case). The RAID sync vulnerability isn't filesystem dependent - it's the same with ext3 as it is with btrfs.
