ReadyNAS Remote Monitoring Tool?

Hi, Everyone

I am just wondering ... Is there any Windows tool which resides in task tray and remotely monitor the status of ReadyNAS, such as CPU temperature, fan speed and maybe disk usage?

If so, I am very interested in trying one. If not, is there any neat way to do such things using any common tool? Or, again I am just wondering ... Is it possible to develop such tool, maybe using SSL? Enough technical information is disclosed? Except reading though the huge source code of RAIDiator...

  • Thanks, DotBlog

    I am sorry but I have not noticed your post for long time. Anyway, I tried your software, ReadyNAS Monitor Version 1.01, but it periodically shows message "An unhandled exception occured." blinking red signals while it shows temperature of hdd1, hdd2 and system (Temp1), volume usage rate and fan speed correctly.

    In the log file, following message repeadedly appears:
    01:18:58.991;  Error;DecodeDisk;Input string was not in a correct format.
    01:18:59.057; Error;Unhandled Exception;Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
    at ReadyNasMonitor.MainWindow.updateMeters(NasInfo nasInfo) in D:\EnCours\ReadyNasMonitor\ReadyNasMonitor\MainWindow.xaml.cs:line 345
    at System.Windows.Threading.ExceptionWrapper.InternalRealCall(Delegate callback, Object args, Int32 numArgs)
    at MS.Internal.Threading.ExceptionFilterHelper.TryCatchWhen(Object source, Delegate method, Object args, Int32 numArgs, Delegate catchHandler)

    My PC's OS is Windows 7 SP1 64bit (language is Japanese, but I do not know it would make any differense though), with .NET Framework 4.0 installed.
    My ReadyNAS is ReadyNAS Ultra 2 which RAIDiator version is 4.2.19-T4 and internal language is set to be English (unicode).

    I hope it will help debugging your software. If you need more information, please ask.

    BTW, before I noticed your post, I almost finished developing my own software by VB.NET for similar purpose. In addtion to showing information from ReadyNAS, it has functions to power on/off the ReadyNAS, etc. It is currently under testing but I hope I will be able to post here shortly.

    I published it as beta release. See Beta Tester Wanted (new Windows app for ReadyNAS).
