ReadyNAS OS 6.4.2 Feedback Thread
Please share your feedback from running ReadyNAS OS 6.4.2
6.4.2 is now available on the update server.
Thanks for sharing your early feedback on 6.4.2. We are now closing this thread, but if you have encountered an issue please open a new thread to discuss it.
Approximately one hour after I updated my RN312 from OS 6.4.1 to OS 6.4.2, extreme write activity with a constant buzz from the head movement started and lasted for about one hour. The only activity for which I was responsible during this time was a daily ReadyNAS Vault backup, but it would not have been doing writes (I updated Vault to version 3.0.16 (the latest) a week ago). I did capture logs while this was happening.
Any thoughts?
Can you send in your logs (see the Sending Logs link in my sig).
Have you seen the "extreme write activity" again since then?
Yes, again tonight. It is appears to be correlated with ReadyNAS Vault running. It looks to me llike it is backing up all the files to the Vault cloud for some reason. Only a handful of files change from day to day, so the incremental backups normally only take a minute of so.
Not sure what all the write activity is about, but perhaps Vault doesn't do encryption on the fly but writes encrypted versions of the files that it then uploads?
I captured logs again tonight, and there are lots of entries like the following in systemd-journal.log:
Feb 04 21:13:45 ReadyNAS3 readyNASVaultDaemon[1963]: INFO | File status changed in cloud: <name of file>

6.4.2 seems to have killed my Logitech Media Server. It won't turn on and even the icon is borked. I'm currently trying to remove it...but it has been clocking for several minutes now.
UPDATE: I finally got it removed and reinstalled.
