System: ReadyNASOS service or process was restarted.

I have a ReadyNAS Pro 6 running Firmware 6.10.3

Recently the system started resyncing every few hours. From the System -> Logs tab, using the web interface:

All the disks appear to be okay (all green) at the Web UI: System -> Performance -> Status.

The CPU/System fans are working 1757/1430 RPM, and the CPU/System are at 38C/54C

 

Downloading the log .zip file, I found the following in "kernel.log". The system reboots, but I can't figure out why:

Any ideas what could be wrong? Hardware failure? I'd be happy to provide any additional information.

 

Thanks

    How much memory is installed in the NAS?

     

    Perhaps try disabling the antivirus software, and see if that makes any difference.

      I've got 8 GB or RAM installed. There must be a way to look this up in the logs (also couldn't see this in the web UI), but by ssh-ing into the ReadyNAS:

       

      # free -mh

                         total         used         free        shared    buffers     cached

      Mem:          7.8G       697M       7.1G       5.3M       4.3M       344M

      -/+ buffers/cache:       348M       7.4G

      Swap:         1.5G         0B       1.5G

       

      I did disable the Antivirus earlier today (saw some posts on similar topics, where you suggested this), but the rebooting & resyncing continues.

       

      Thanks

        Thx.  I was asking because some folks with the stock 1 GB have started to run out.  Shipping OS-6 ReadyNAS all have at least 2 GB, and you of course are well over that.

         

        The thought about AV was similarly motivated - wondering if you were running out of resources.  That isn't likely to be the cause of your issue.

         

        What disks are you using?

         

        Have you looked through the logs for disk events (insertions/removal)?  Maybe use journalctl since you have ssh enabled.  smartctl -x might also give some clues on the disks (especially if yours support the error logging).  FWIW, I had some WD60EFRX drives that started throwing UNC errors that showed up in smartctl -x, but not in the smart stats.
