RN316 | Blinking Red Light for HDD1 | Everything looks fine otherwise
Hi all, It seems that my RN316 had "hung", so I was forced to reboot it. (I have noticed in past couple of months that it waits a long time around 28% during boot process.) Anyway, I rebooted...
Is it any better now? Moved your MySQL database to the data volume and created a symlink. Also updated your system to 6.7.0
Huh???
Thoroughly confused although happy :catlol:
Um, so the top HDD is now "back to normal" - blue.
So what has MySQL go to do with anything here. Is it used internally by the RN316
So firmware is saying 6.7. Also saying that DropBox has been updated and I need to re-authenticate. (FYI: I am surprised about the 6.7 update, becuase the admin console never said it wa available and kept saying that 6.6.2 was the latest version.)
Ahhh... is MySQL being used by Plex???
So:
- Is the disk fine?
- Is the firware / NAS fine?
- How do I avoid this?
Thanks a million mdgm,!!!
PS: Can I turn off the "support mode"?

It is not used internally. Plex uses SQLlite (I think) and it's files are kept in /apps (which is on the data volume).
Do you (or did you) install other apps? PHP packages perhaps?
Only "apps" I have installed is:
- Log Analyzer
- Plex Media Server (For home videos of family, etc, not downloaded movies, so any database should not be amssive I would have thought)
- Syslog Server
- SMB Plus
Should I be unistalling SMB Plus with 6.7 firware. Any reasons to keep it?
Yes you can turn off SDM.
6.7.0 has been released but it's only available as a local update at this time.
SMB Plus offers some advanced SMB configuration options. It's not necessary to have that app installed if you don't need what it offers.
Thanks again,
I assume the hardware is all fine.
(Having problems getting the SMART test to run. WIll schedule again tonight.)

Must be one of these two. My guess is the syslog server.

It gives more control over the SMB protocol used by the NAS. If you've never changed those settings, you can remove it. It doesn't use MySQL though.
