ReadyNAS Update Process Logs
Hi all,
I saw the following in my logs upon reloading my device today... I upgraded to 6.8.1 successfully but curious as to what the below means.

There is a check done after every reboot (could take about 15 minutes after the reboot before hot-fix installation is complete) and weekly after that for available hot-fixes.
For some reason your system is having trouble with this check. If it still doesn't work for you on 6.9.0 it would be worth investigating this further.

Hi MDGM / all,
I saw this error right after upgrading to 6.8.1 and it has continued every week thereafter. I can try the upgrade to 6.9.0 in the next week or so but I was a little concerned that it may create further problems if there was already an issue with the device running an update etc.
Should the software update to 6.9.0 work irrespective of the ReadyNAS update status?
How would this potentially resolve the issue? Presumably many folks are still running with 6.8.1 without issues with the weekly ReadyNAS update. I will provide you with the logs I downloaded yesterday in case they give you any clue.
Really appreciate your help.
Thanks...

Following upgrade to 6.9.0. The update has ran without error.
No idea what the issue was but it is resolved now. Something must have got screwed up with the previous upgrade.
