RN1500 replace disk RAID5
Hi, We have a ReadyNAS 1500 with RAIDiator 4.2.28 and 4x2TB in RAID5. One disk failed and we have replaced it with an identical one (Seagate ST2000DL003-9VT166). The lights of the four discs ...
Sorry, we'll restart the nas on December 26th. It isn't possible before.
Hi,
When restarting the NAS the RAID began to be rebuilt.
One question:
The NAS is hot swap, should not it synchronize automatically without restarting?
Regards,
It should have, but obviously didn't in this case.
Sometimes when a disk fails, the linux drivers will mark it's SATA port as down (depending on the details on how the drive failed). When that happens, the system needs to be rebooted. There might be other ways that this can happen too.
Thanks StephenB
