Uncontrolled power-ups with RN Pro after Raidar Upg.

The problem is still in there on 4.2.15. When I power down from frontview it seem to work, but when I turn the unit off pressing the power button manually it still turn-on itself after 30 minutes.

Edit: Even when I turn off the unit via frontview the unit turn-on around 2 hours after.

I recently open a ticket about my problem (not powering on), and it was found that somehow the synchronization of the clock to the netgear NTP server was the issue. It does not get flagged in the Logs, but the dates in the logs were incorrect. After I switched the ReadyNas to internal clock, problems disappeared...

UltraBike - Thanks. We will take a look with Internal Clock setting and so on.. :)

Actually, after a few days, even using the ReadyNAS internal clock started to give issues. I opened my ReadyNAS Pro, replaced the CV2032 battery that according to the forums here supplies power to the internal clock when the NAS is off (was a Panasonic, now is an Energizer), and the issue is now GONE even when using the Netgear NTP server and FW 4.2.15.

EDIT:
SPOKE TOO SOON. Today it did not turn on. I guess I will just cruise with the NAS as is, but this certainly reduces my satisfaction with this system. On a system such as this I don't expect flashiness in the interface. I expect speed, durability, and stability, and obviously we are not getting 100%!

I have this problem with 4.2.15 as well. Reading through the thread, nobody seems to mention if disconnecting the LAN cables proved that the NAS was being woken by something on the network, or that it was autonomously waking up regardless of the network.

Happy to send logs or to make the NAS available remotely if someone at Netgear needs, if the cause has not been found yet.

OK. Today my ReadyNAS PRO turned off by itself outside its supposed schedule. So I checked the NTP Option after I manually started the machine. Well the time according to the NAS was December something midnight!

So I forced NTP synchronization, and to my dismay it did not find the servers! I had in there:
time-e.netgear.com
time-h.netgear.com

Looked around and decided to put
time-a.netgear.com
time.nist.gov

And things are running smoothly again... We will see if this solves the issues...

NOPE, Problem persists, EVEN after applying the latest FW RAIDator 4.2.16 + RAIDar 4.3.1...

My ReadyNAS Pro always turns off on time as programmed too, but RANDOMLY TURNS ON, some days it does, and some days it doesn't (so I have to go push the botton). This is a problem if I'm not in the premises and still want to use the scheduled power-on/off feature!

My ReadyNAS Pro is connected to a Trednet Green 8-port Gigabit Ethernet switch, not sure if this could be the problem (don't see how but who knows at this point!). Also I have a replacement unit, not sure if my replacement unit may be defective... NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH MY ORIGINAL PRO UNIT, or my ReadyNAS NV+ which I currently use to back up my PRO. My ReadyNAS NV+ ALWAYS turns off/on as programmed to and is hooked to the same ethernet switch my Pro is.

Last time I call support I was told that for some reason my ReadyNAS PRO time was off for some "strange" reason, so I changed the time servers it was looking at. When that failed I ran the timer internally, and still had problems. I then replaced the internal battery thinking it may have run out of juice, but that did not solve the problem either.The FW update seems to claim it solve some synch issues for the power saving options, but I still have a problem.

ANY SUGGESTIONS?

Disable the Schedule Power on/off. Then Power off the unit from front power button and see if it's power on automatically.

Hi Jedi Knight,

1) I disabled the Schedule Power on/off
2) Powered off the unit from the front power button.

But unit did not power on automatically (did this twice)

Ultrabike,

Thanks for the reply. Now, could you make sure the system clock is set correctly and enable the Schedule Power on/off to make sure it can power off at correct time and power on at correct time?
