nas central weblog

blog & wikis & forums will be accessable but everything will be read only.

Reason: Work on SQL-replication on a different server so we can switch all public facing sites to the redundant server within minutes and the chance is minimized to loose any data if a severe unrecoverable hdd crash happens on the server. If it works as expected this pushes data security to the next level.

Start: 2200UTC 21Jan08

Expected End: 0300UTC 22Jan08

Take a look at the Wiki Syntax Cheatsheet. This feature is very helpful for editors.

ddodgers confirmed in this post that the cs05q3armel-optware feed (which was initially setup for the Maxtor shared storage II and works on several boxes based on the same board by marvell) is also working on the Linkstation Pro Duo . Anyone with a Linkstation Pro DUO can follow this instructions to bootstrap.

EDIT: the optware packages were also reported to work on the Linkstation EZ!

Now we have two new subwikis:

• HP Devices
• WesternDigital Devices

Both links are added on the navigation bar on the right.

All Users that own a Netgear NAS look at

• Netgear Devices
  

Its linked on the right side like everything else.

Just before the maintainance we added 2 new wikis for zyxel and thecus NAS-devices.

• Thecus Devices
• Zyxel Devices

Remember that all wikis are editable anonymously, but in case we have to turn that off you only need to register once in the forum at http://forum.nas-central.org and you can login in all wikis with your forum user/pass.

Expected downtime: 2 hours

• http://buffalo.nas-central.org and http://nas-central.org will be switched
• related links will be fixed in the forum
• fix some old links that are still wrong (http://linkstationwiki.net , http://www.linkstationwiki.net, http://downloads.linkstationwiki.net)
