DELETED_5350

What version is your USB key now? What sofware version/update level was the NAS before upgrading? And what's the state of the NAS now, as in what do you mean by 'dead'?
 
I realize theres a dedicate thread, but its completely dead.

1) I upgraded via the control panel to the latest version, should I be worried? Since I noticed the correct way to upgrade is by updating via the USB pen.

2)If I was to 'start fresh' how would I go about preserving my data on my disks, would Xpenology recognize the filesystem and just re-import them?

3)For some strange reason no wireless clients are able to access the NAS via the IP, I dont even get a ping reply.

4) The latest version breaks iscsi LUN, is there a way of storing my virtual machines on the NAS? I believe I tried todo this before and it wouldnt work.

Thank you.

'dead' as in the thread forum Xpen thread is dead.

I'm currently running DSM 5.2-5644 (displayed in control panel), I was running the previous latest version.

NAS seems fine other than I cant connect to it via wireless devices.

Clearly I was asleep when I replied.. I get you now :D

1) Yes/No. You can upgrade through control panel BUT you should have the newest boot image before that, and pretty sure with this version it needed you to do an install/upgrade when it boots up. You may still get away with it, since you're working still.

2) I can't answer that, but do you really need to go fresh?

3) So you have NAS on wired connection. Then if Laptop/PC is plugged into same router/switch you CAN connect to NAS but if you take them off and use wifi, then it no longer has a connection?

4) I am not sure I get your question. Have you got the NAS set up with iSCSI AND a normal CIFS share? or is all data presented by iSCSI?
 
Generally the way to update is to watch the xpenology.com forums for the release of a new bootloader for the USB stick, grab that and then overwrite the existing boot image. Once you've booted DSM using the new stick you'll be able to update to the latest DSM version supported by that boot image; it is not wise to update beyond what officially has been stated as often you'll suffer from no volumes being found due to the security in DSM.

For Vsphere Hypervisor, NFS storage is the fastest and more reliable connection type, seems more consistant than iSCSI; also has the benefit of being directly stored on the array so you can see all the files and copy them off... iSCSI cannot be viewed within DSM.
