ReadyNAS 2100 User Manual
5-12 Optimizing Performance and Maintaining the System
v1.1, June 2009
The RAID volume automatically resynchronizes with the new disk in the background. The process
takes several hours depending on disk size. During the resync process, the ReadyNAS can be used
as normal, although access will be slower until the volume is finished resynchronizing.
You will be notified by e-mail when the resync process is complete.
Using the System Diagnostic Boot Menu
The recessed reset switch allows you to perform six functions (see the table “Control Panel Status
and Diagnostic Information” on page 5-7):
1. Normal: Bypass the diagnostic boot menu and perform a normal boot.
2. Factory Default: Reset the ReadyNAS back to factory default state, erasing all data on the
disks. This option can be used to change between X-RAID2 and Flex-RAID mode.
3. OS Reinstall: While keeping the data volume in tact, re-install the RAIDiator firmware on the
ReadyNAS, reset the admin password and change the DHCP assignment to DHCP client. This
is helpful if you have lost your admin password and want to set it back to default, if errors in
your network settings has made it impossible to connect to the ReadyNAS, or if you suspect
that the operating system on your disk may somehow be corrupt. If you find that a
configuration change makes the unit inaccessible, you can use option three to set the unit back
to a factory default state.
4. Tech Support: Enable the remote diagnostic function.
5. Skip Volume Check: Boot the system but bypass the volume check.
6. Memory Test: Perform a memory diagnostic.
Warning: This process reinstalls the firmware and resets all disk configurations,
wiping out any data you might have on the NAS.
Tip: If possible, use the configuration backup (see “Configuration Backup” on
page 2-30) to save your configuration so that if you have to reset the unit to its
factory default settings, you can simply restore all your settings from the
configuration backup.
