rn-expand[2065]: Failed to get device type for /dev/md0: 25

I'm seeing this message in the logs every 2 minutes: rn-expand[2065]: Failed to get device type for /dev/md0: 25 I couldn't find much info on rn-expand, but it seems to relate to expanding volumes....

Not having any issues with the NAS AFAIK other than these messages.
Still, a message that clutters up the logs every 2 minutes seems worth fixing. Will this be addressed in a future ReadyNAS update, or at least through apt-get?

    It is actually a function that checks the NAS every 2 minutes to make sure it does not miss any opportunities on expansion. It's a notice that we will not be able to fix since it's not an error.
