Management Service is offline (RN102)
ReadyNAS firmware 6.8.1 Hi, I have been using ReadyNAS for a while now, I have four in total and they have been 'almost' flawless. This morning, however, when I turned one of them on, the Power light continues to flash indicating an issue. Ran RAIDar 6.3.0 and it tells me both drives are healthy but that the Management Service is Offline. SSH is not enabled on the device currently (i don't run with SSH enabled). I was, however, able to download the logs using RAIDar. I tried to upload them for convenience but zip files are not allowed. Upon searching the forums the most common suggestion appears to be a full O/S partition... but that doing a re-install of the O/S from the boot menu does not fix the issue. I have not yet done this and would prefer not to perform a factory reset unless we have to. any assistance in getting my admin page back up and running would be appreciated. Many thanks. Kristian
ReadyNAS Anti-Virus Plus - (ReadyNAS OS 6.8.0 ) - how to configure
How to set up the antivirus program behavior. My system 6.8.0 (RN102) does not show the following options. I have antivirus turned on, but it is not possible to set the antivirus in more detail. I do not want to let antivirus decide to delete suspicious files! Will someone please help me?
Network configuration and Computer name change
Hi guys! I'm brand new to this forum and was directed here by customer support. I was helped two weeks back to get my NAS back online but when I have tried to log in since it just says it's offline (attached is a screenshot of the message). I have recently changed the computers name and can't help but think that may have thrown off the configuration but the technical wizardry the customer support provided was amazing to re-configure everything - but there's no way I couldn't follow what he was doing or understand it. Could anybody lend me a helping hand to try and do this myself? TomRequest for review of basic backup plan RN10200 OS 6.6.1 (Newbie)
I really would appreciate some assistance by anyone who is familiar with backing up a NAS 102. What I need is a review of what I have done and any corrections necessary. My goal is to have an independent backup to avoid the loss of data on my NAS via ReadyCloud, as in the latest incident of March 30th. (I have very little experience with a NAS, so patience and good directions are necessary.) I use an iMac and have attached a 5GB USB3 drive to the top rear USB port of the NAS102, Firmware 6.6.1. It is formatted to NTFS. So here is what I have done: 1. Created a “backup” in the Admin section of ReadyCloud. 2. Backup “Data” share which contains all my shares to my USB HHD. 3, All is then backed up to the USB HHD and visible on the drive via ReadyCloud. Questions: 1. Is this backup scheme what I need to reach my goal? If not, detailed suggestions. 2. Can I disconnect the USB drive until I want to another manual backup? If so, is there a menu in ReadyCloud or Admin to safely eject the drive or can I just pull the USB connection? Location of eject, if there is one?(I can't find one.) 3. I am concerned that if I leave the drive connected to the NAS that ReadyCloud can “accidentally” delete my access to this backup as in the March 30th incident. Finally, I am concerned with leaving this drive on 24/7. Quality of the drive is not as good as my NAS HHD’s. 4. Finally, assume the NAS loses access via ReadyCloud, will the data on the backup be visible and usable if I plug the drive into my iMac or even a Windows machine which I can get access to? Thank you so very much in replying to this request. I know to the initiated, that this must seem mundane and the answers are buried somewhere in the forums. I’ve been looking through the forums and things can get real technical. Thanks again!
