3.Reset the system to its factory default settings.

WARNING:

This process erases all data and reformats all disks into a single X-RAID2 volume. If you want to preserve the data on the disks, you must back up the data to an external drive before using the disks in your ReadyNAS storage system.

For information about how to reset the system to its factory default settings, see the Boot Menu section of the chapter that describes your system.

The disk is reformatted and becomes available for use with your ReadyNAS OS 6 storage system.

Migrate a Volume

You can migrate a volume from one ReadyNAS OS 6 storage system to another, as long as you migrate every disk in the volume. For example, if you want to migrate a volume that contains two disks, you must add both disks to the new system. If you add only part of a volume to the new system, the system recognizes the disk as a degraded volume.

If your ReadyNAS storage system is operating with one or more disks, you can add disks while the system is running. The new system recognizes the migrated volume and its data. For more information about adding a disk while the system is running, see Add a Disk on page 29.

If your ReadyNAS storage system does not have any disks installed, perform the following procedure.

To migrate a volume to a diskless ReadyNAS OS 6 system:

1.Gracefully shut down the new (diskless) storage system.

For information about how to gracefully shut down your system, see the Preferred Shutdown section of the chapter that describes your system.

2.Remove each disk in the volume from the old system.

3.Install each disk in the volume into the new storage system. For more information, see Add a Disk on page 29.

4.Turn on the new system by pressing the Power button.

The new system recognizes the migrated volume and its data.
