Creating / Deleting large file crashes ReadyNAS
In VMWare, I was migrating a large VM to a NFS share on my ReadyNAS RN2120. It got to a certain point and then the ReadyNAS crashed. After rebooting it, I tried to delete the directory which contains a 0.98 TB vmdk file and it crashed again. Every time I try to delete this file, it crashes the ReadyNAS and the unit must be hard booted. I've tried deleting it via Windows, in the ReadyNAS Web UI and via SSH with the same results (crash). There seems to be no way to remove this file without crashing the ReadyNAS. This is a very serious issue and seems to be the same problem this fellow is having: https://community.netgear.com/t5/Using-your-ReadyNAS/Can-t-delete-a-large-file/m-p/932043#M70966 There is obviously some kind of bug in this ReadyNAS OS (firmware version 6.2.4) which is causing this. I really need a solution that doesn't require a complete factory reset / erasure of the unit.Solved5KViews0likes8Comments
