ReadyNAS "Admin Page" is offline
Hi all, Unfortunately, my ReadyNAS (OS 6.2.4) has been troubled for quite some time. I'm not able to connect to the admin page of the NAS within a couple of days after a device reset. When I rese...

Hi all,
I have exchanged the standard 1GB memory with a single 2GB memory module (Mushkin Essentials - DDR3 - 2 GB - SO DIMM 204-pin - 1333 MHz / PC3-10666 - CL9 - 1.5 V - non-buffer - non-ECC) and my problems are gone. I have stressed it with quite some Transmission, Sabnzbd and Sickbeard activities at the same time which would definately result in a crash before the memory upgrade and.. admin page is working fine. Apparantly a legacy device (Readynas Ultra 2) can't always run OS6 with the same apps as OS4 without some memory issues if you're a 'heavy' user. Solution for me: 2Gb of memory instead of 1Gb. Hope this helps someone.

You are still running too much on the NAS and it is running out of memory. I can see that MySQL is one of the services you are running.

Thanks for your help, much appreciated! It is strange though, I have the app 'MySql Server' disabled. I currently run these apps:
- Python
- PHP
- SMB Plus
- PHPMyAdmin
- SSH
- SABnzbd
- Transmission
- Sickbeard
Is one of them too heavy on memory resources? And would upgrading from 1GB to 2GB of memory fix the memory issues?
Thanks!

I got the same issue Mjar, I need to disable all services to be able to reach the admin page at all. It started just before I upgraded to 6.2.4
load avarage is between 1,3 and 1,5 when completely idle but CPUs are idle. Not sure yet what is lagging the system but just like you I don't run that much that could cause this inresponsiveness.
Right now I'm only downloading with sabnzbdplus and admin page is completely unreachable.
Is there a way to reinstall only the OS for my readynas and keep my data?
