wsdd2 service failure after reboot

First reboot in month or so. I'm running 6.6.0 which has been super stable by the way. I shut the system down for an annual cleaning (just clean dust out of chassis really) and after booting wsdd2 service is seg faulting. I think this service has something to do with USB? Maybe I should reseat all the USB connectors and power cycle those devices? 

 

It's strange because everything seems to be working fine. So I'm not sure what this service really does.

  • Thanks again.  There's another update available now (or soon) that should fix the remaining issue.

  • I tried power cycling all the usb connected drives and then rebooted the nas. Same result for wsdd2:

    I found another unresolved issue where the user was seeing this error in their logs. It might be frequent as you have to have ssh access to know about it. Nothing comes out in frontview about it. Can someone explain what this service really does?

      It's a discovery service added in 6.5.0. Can you send in your logs (see the Sending Logs link in my sig)?
