We will study it and will try to implement it in future versions.

F2-221 running 5.0.129 for 2 days now. The CPU is at 100% and there are dozens of "postgres" processes using all of the CPU. Getting frequent messages that the utilization is over 90% and that the system sluggisH (no kidding). I am not running any media servers so it shouldn't be indexing media as others noted previously. Is this Terra Search setting up indexing? I only have 165gb of data on this system so it shouldn't be that much time or process.
Any thoughts?

It's now been running at 100% for over 3 days with the disk light flashing continuously and the TerraSearch app still greyed out with the spinning icon saying "preparing". I only have 165gb of data on this NAS. How long should this continue before accepting that the app isn't working? A progress bar would be helpful.
Has anyone gotten this app to work? Does it need internet access? My NAS are behind the firewall and don't have internet access unless granted a temporary exception.

1. TerraSearch is not associated with media index. If you find that "postgres" and "mediaindex" use high CPU resources, please go to Control Panel - Media Index to check whether media index is enabled.
2. Please close the application page and go to Application Center - Installed to check if TerraSearch is enabled.
3. TerraSearch does not require internet access.
4. Since TerraSearch will occupy a large amount of system resources, it is generally recommended to use it on devices with more than 4G memory.

I never enabled Media Index however its page shows that the index is complete.

TerraSearch is enabled and the page continues to indicate "preparing" after 3 days.

I am going to try to uninstall the TerraSearch app. Its resource demands are causing other functions to fail. This is my backup server that I need for data backups and other testing and it has to be reliable and fast. A global search function would have been nice to have but will continue to use search under SMB from the PCs.

I have the same problem. Can anyone tell whether we can ignore this message and carry on the installation while keep existing data on HDD?

Try to update to TOS 5 while keeping existing data on HDDs. During NAS initialization after selecting "Custom" I got the message "Data on hard drive(s) will be deleted! Are you sure you want to continue?"
Help, what is the procedure to carry out TOS 5 installation without deleting data on existing HDDs?

Hi rocketron51 - did you manage to install DSM 6.23 on the F5-221 or am I misinterpreting you? If you did, was it difficult?
Thank you.

Yes I did run DSM 6.23 on my F5-221 and it is not too dificult but you must follow instructions on Xpenology forum.
I no longer run it on my F5-221 now I now run TOS 5.0.130

i'm guessing this is a further nail in the coffin for us F2-210 users that TM refused to allow us to upgrade the ram in so stuck at 1gb memory
