Can you send in your logs (see the Sending Logs link in my sig).

Have you seen the "extreme write activity" again since then?
- pec967Feb 05, 2016Luminary
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.

Perhaps you could contact ReadyNAS Vault support and see if they have any suggestions regarding what you are seeing with Vault.

Thanks, I will do that.
I also noticed something strange. I had updated to Vault version 3.0.16 about a week before the update from OS 6.4.1 to OS 6.4.2, and everything was smooth with the update and I rebooted the RN312. The logs showed that the update was successful. When I look at the Vault portal and in one of the RN312 logs that shows all the versions of software, however, it shows the Vault version as 2.9.23? I will try to update to Vault 3.0.16 again.
