Many thanks, @TMzethar. Useful idea, I'll investigate that. The fact of dmesg.0 and the historic gzips missing from TOS 5 is a puzzle. These files are tiny -- about 25KB each. Why dispense with these useful diagnostic tools? Rather than just sshing into the NAS to mooch through /var/log I have to dr...

The code you cite, @Gremlin, won't find dmesg.0 (or indeed anything -- it's malformed). I had a go with find / -name "*dmesg.0*" before coming on here, but, as you suggest, the dmesg boot logs are nowhere to be found. I'm hoping you're poised to follow up with a positive suggestion. :-) --...

My F4-223 running TOS 5.1 has a problem connecting to the LAN. After every power down, whether scheduled, manual or following an OS upgrade, the subsequent boot reliably fails to obtain an IP address. The four drive lights are lit and unblinking and the LAN light remains off. The NAS is inaccessible...

Thanks for that swift response, @TMpraj. Much appreciated. Let me clarify: As this address is static, I would not expect it to change when the machine is power cycled. If this port's address were dependent on a DHCP server I would expect it to be handed an address consistent with the subnet. This is...

This device is the F4-223 running TOS 5.1.123. With this version of the operating system, and, I seem to remember, with previous versions, I've found that after shutting down the system, whether to upgrade the firmware or simply to give it a rest, on powering up again it enters a state where it can'...

Many thanks, @mightymouse, for that very full explanation. I had suspected that the HyperLock-WORM feature was solely a function of the TOS 5 domain but I was waiting for confirmation before physically removing the two NVMes providing the physical storage. There was always a (very remote) possibilit...

No mention here of a TNAS PC update for Linux. Has this been discontinued?

I've been in correspondence with Terramaster support about how to remove the HyperLock-WORM feature from an NVMe drive. Tested Technology has been reviewing the F4-223 and TOS5 and we wanted to include a discussion of this feature in our final article in the series. Our test set the WORM expiry date...

…but at the age of 72, time seems to move a bit faster for me. Me too, ten years ahead of you, and it's getting faster still. Have you ever wondered why this might be? I'm pretty sure I've discovered the answer: We mentally measure time present in terms of the percentage of time spent on the planet...

A couple of hours later and the NAS is back on the LAN. The annoying thing is, We don't know how this happened. Something we did? A function of having done several reboots? Whatever the case, it would be useful to know what the official procedure should be when the NAS disappears from the LAN. Attac...
