NETGEAR ReadyNAS 2304 (RR2304) RR230400 Volume Degraded Notification and Can't Connect to NAS
I am receiving email notifications from my ReadyNAS 2304 that indicated: "Volume data health changed from Redundant to Degraded." and then received a second email notification: "Disk Model:ST4000V...
To answer the questions:
Are these associated with you shutting down the unit? Possible forcefully? Or maybe by schedule? There are no entries between Oct 31 and Nov 15, so was the unit off during that period?
I did not shut down the server, but it is scheduled to shut down at midnight 12AM Mon - Thu and 1AM on Fri and Sat. I do not know what would have shut it down and I am not aware of any power outages, I am in FL and we tend to have power outages often.
Its possible that my kids popped the drive out on Oct 30th, I did find two of the four drives popped out days later. I did not shut down, it would have been on the power schedule.
AFAIK, the unit shouldn't shut down in mid-sync. But I now disable auto shut-down before swapping out a drive so it doesn't turn off as soon as it finishes (I like to go in and make sure all is OK first), so I'm relying on memory from some time ago on that. But if yours kids popped one out during a sync, that might cause a problem because the NAS was in mid-write at the time. Popping out a second drive when no writing is occurring normally does no harm, as the volume will go offline preventing damage.
Let StephenB see what tale your full logs tell. A lot is absent from the log in the GUI.
