Ix4-300d enable gmail

Hi,
I have tried to enable mail notifications in the ix4-300d, but the testmail is never sent. I am using the gmail smtp-server (smtp.gmail.com). How shall I configure the mail settings to support this?

Just noted - smtp settings are not necessary since the mail sent through lenovo... Good solution.

IX4-300d - UPS, not showing in management, but sends messages if I connect and disconnect

Just acquired a iX4-300d, and updated to the latest firmware (4.1.104.31360).
On trying to link a UPS (a KSTAR BM-3080) - the UPS Management page just shows "Status: None Connected"
BUT - in the EVENT LOGS panes I get the following message:
Event
4462 An Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) has been recognized.
and if I unplug the USB connector between the UPS and the iX4-300d - the message
Event
4463
The Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) has been removed.
is shown ----- Surely if it sees a UPS is connected it should show one in the UPS Managment page, of not then why does it show in the Event log console.
ALSO:
Given that the iX4-300d seems to recognise a UPS has been connected - is there some way to update/replace or even get to the code related to this UPS mmanagement section, so I can get readings from the UPS, thus enabling a 'smart shutdown' when the battery drops to say 10% remaining?
(Could it not be just a "Plug in" that allows smarter people than me to enter the UPS I/O values and make it work with a wider range of UPS devices.
Additionally - so far I havn't seen a list of "Approved UPS", just a note about some UPS systems that do not work.)
DG.

I've tested this with an ix4-300d and APC smartUPS 1500 ( which is not on the list of compatible UPS ), but it is working exactly as you wish. Somewhere around 15% battery the device will shut down.
Give it a try....
B.T.W You may test the notification functionality by unplugging ups main supply. If properly configured this event will shouw up in the log and NAS will sent notification mail ( + another mail when mains are recovered)

Ix4-300d network interface going off-line

I just got a new ix4-300d to use as an iSCSI target in a relatively low-performance requirement file server.
I have used ix4-200d and ix4-300d in the past for iSCSI targets in disk-based backup scenarios wihtout issues.
I am having problems with this one, though. I am attempting to copy data to this new unit (with a VHD mounted from the iSCSI connection to the system), and while data seems to copy OK, at some point the network interface quits working somehow.
When this occurs, the unit still thinks that the interface is configured, and everything seems OK, I just cannot connect. Obviously, this causes my iSCSI initiators to die, and the VM hosted crashes hard. At that point, I have to restart the storage unit, and then reconnect my initiators, and then bring everything back online.
I've updated the firmware to the latest, but it wasn't that far out of date. I've found an article titled "Network storage device is not assigned an IP address" in the knowledgebase that points ot a problem with the software in the 4.0.2 series, and I was at 4.0.6, and am now current in 4.0.8. I am testing the process again, but wanted to check with the community to see if anyone has experienced anything similar and/or could offer some idea of why this interface quits working.
For what it's worth, the other units I have worked with were all in the 3.x series of software.
Thanks for any help/information anyone can provide.

Hi chloeroxymax,
Do you have discovery enabled?
If not, check the box for "Enable discovery with iSNS" under the iSCSI settings and select "Use local iSNS server".
Then, on your iSCSI Initiator, go to the Discovery tab. Click "Add Server" under iSNS servers and enter the IP address of the NAS.
The device should show up under the Targets tab (you may have to click the refresh button)
On your other NAS devices, go to the iSCSI settings page and select "Enable discovery with iSNS" but select "Use external iSNS server" and type in the IP address of the ix4-300d NAS.
This may help things run smoothly. If the device is still disconnecting, I would recommend contacting technical support since this is a new device and you are covered by the warranty for support.

UPS not recognized by Lenovo IX4-300D

Hi there,
My new IX4-300D is not seening Xfinity Pro Series 2000VA 1200W Uninterruptible Power Supply connected by USB.
QNAP TS-269L on the same subnet has no problem seeing the same Xfinity UPS.
QNAP TS-269L is presently setup as a master. In GUI added IP addresses for QNAP TS-459 Pro II and Lenovo IX4-300D as slaves.
QNAP TS-459 Pro II sees the UPS on QNAP TS-269L, but Lenovo IX4-300D is still unaware of the UPS.
I am using GUI on QNAP and IX4-300D because I am not familiar with Linux and command line.
I can connect to QNAPs using WinSCP.
I have two exactly the same UPSs and would prefer to connect IX4-300D to UPS via USB directly.
If direct connectivity is not possible, I would like IX4-300D to at least recognize that it is a slave.
What can be done about it? Please provide instructions. Your assistance will be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!
Tom

Hello TuToTom
I have been unable to find a specific listing of what USB driver the unit uses, however the user manual lists the usb port as the serial connection. With most UPS devices that list the usb port as a serial power it usually means that the unit uses a usb to serial (rs232) adapter internally.
The Lifeline NAS devices support USBHID-UPS enabled UPS devices. Most APC models, dell, and eaton units can or do use this driver. This would be different than the usb connected serial link method.
I recommend contacting the ups manufacturer to confirm how the usb port on your ups unit functions and proceed from there.

Access Denied ix4-300d

I tried enable SSH on Iomega ix4-300d but always return Access Denied. Follow this steps:
Point your web browser to the following address: http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/manage/diagnostics.html.
Click the “Allow remote access for support (SSH and SFTP), and then click apply.
SSH is now enabled. There is one catch: the password is slightly different. Use the following credentials to access your PX4

IX4-300D - Raid rebuild stuck?

Hi,
When I arrived this morning at work I found that my NAS (IX4-300D) was doing a RAID Rebuild
I can ping the NAS but I can't access via web interface, storage manager or SSH.
I tried pressing the "Display control buttons" to try to see some info, but i'm stuck at the massage "Support access is enabled" since I add SSH enabled, the dipslay only shows that message.
The problem is that I don't now if the raid rebuid is working, if its going to take long, or if its simply stuck.
Can I hard reboot ths NAS? Should I wait longer?
The rebuild is going for more then 1h30min but I can't be shure because it may as well started during the night.
I did not received any drive error massage.
The NAS has 4 drives with RAID 5 setup.
Can you please give me some light of what to do next?
UPDATE: After +1h or so the Disk Activity led stopped (it was flashing before) but the System Status led is still flashing.
Thank you

Thanks for the response.
I've been exchaging email with someone of the suporte team.
I hade to turn off the NAS, after booting everything seams OK, although I havent check all the data.
The suport asked me to send them a dump files, but i'm not been able to get it, its takes a long time and i've lost the session a couple of times.
I tried to keep the session opened by using the web interface from time to time, and after 2hours it was still processing the file, had to left work so don't know if in the meanwhile the file was created, but i dont think so.
I've sent them another email, but since its the weekend I will probably only get an answer next monday.
Meawhile if I can get this questions answered it woul be great:
I notice that the system only has 42mb on "/" could it be a problem?
Where does the dump file goes? Can it be genarated by terminal?
Thanks

Ix4-300d Add iSCSI Drive Issue

Hello Everyone, I have a brand new, out of the box ix4-300d. When i go into the iSCSI area, enable the iSCSI feature and click "Add an iSCSI Drive" the add drive area does not appear. I have tried this in IE 9, IE 11, and Chrome 43.0.2357.130 m. See below for screenshot.
The system is updated to the latest Firmware and I even did a factory reset of the device with no luck. Any ideas on what I need to do to fix this? EDIT: I realized this is in the wrong forum could a Mod move this one - sorry for the trouble. Thxm-S

Interesting. I just created a standard share on the device. After I did that, the iSCSI drive configuration area appeared and was accessible. I have no idea why this worked but it did!!! -S

So I requested a offline file system check from diagnose page. That was as off now 23 hours ago, from what I can see, the fs check did not take long, but has been stuck at DEvice software restarting for at least 22 hourse. I use less then 200Gig on it, setup as raid 10.
This device is not 1 month old. I had it freeze on my once already, not while restarting, just froze up. So that is the second time.
Status in the web console said all is fine, I had to go in through ssh and look at the os logs to find out what is happening.
What should I do?
Solved!

Hello CollegeMathieu
Please contact support using the below support links so we can have the issue properly diagnosed. There is a good chance that the unit may have shipped with a defective drive (if it is a diskless model one of your hard disks may be defective). This could be causing the strange firmware behavior.
A couple of things to try :
-power down the unit and re-seat all disks then try booting again to see if there is any change.
-If the above does not work, try swapping disk 1 with any of the other hard disks while powered off and then try booting again.

Security certificate - ix4-300d

I am using an ix4-300d with SSL enabled. In security settings there is an option to install a security certificate. What types of certificates are allowed and are there any specific configurations needed when creating the certificate?

This is the way I attempted to do it but it still did not work. I am trying this on a LenovoEMC ix12-300r
I have tried the following:Generate Cert:openssl req -new -newkey rsa:2048 -nodes -keyout naskey.pem -out nasreq.pem Upload and sign to Microsoft CADownload Base64 certCreate new file copying and pasting the contents of the singned cert and root cert called allcerts.pem merge with private keyopenssl pkcs12 -export -in allcerts.pem -inkey naskey.pem -out final.p12 -clcerts -passin pass:**** -passout pass:**** Convert to PEMopenssl pkcs12 -in final.p12 -out final.pem -passin pass:**** -passout pass:**** I successfully create and verify this certificate. I have used this method on other (non lenovo) devices to generate certificates signed with our CA so I know this method works. It will not accept my signed cert in a PEM format. Is there a specific version of open SSL required? I have tried on both 0.9.8zb and 1.0.1f.

How do I disable administrator username and password entry to access ix4-300d

With the recent version 4.1.102.29716 update, I am now FORCED to enter a username and password to get into my "home based" ix4-300d NAS. This has already been a MAJOR pain for my nedia server setup, in that I am no longer able to create a network drive to one of several NAS folders on to my home network.
My question therefore is, how do I DISABLE the function of having to enter an administrator username and password to gain entry into my ix4-300d?
Thanks,
Bill

No hazzle, just do it.
This is only for admin purposes. You are still able to place your media into individual user shares or put it in the public area where they will be accessible for everyone, even if you set 'security' on.

What is the proceedure for replacing a hard drive (after failure) for RAID 5 with IX4-300D?

I have the IX4-300D with 4 hard drives (identical Seagate drives) using RAID 5.
Someday a hard drive will fail and I and I have to replace it. I read through the users manual briefly and I didn't see any documentation on how to perform a hard drive replacement and not lose any data.
So here are my questions:
1) I know per the instructions that Lenovo prefers using identical hard drives. Let's say in 2 years, 1 hard drive fails. Most likely, the same model Seagate hard drive will not be available. So will using a replacement hard drive by the same manufacturer with similar specifications work?
2) Will the front panel (or the software) tell me which hard drive has failed?
3) What is the proceedure for replacing a hard drive after a failure occurs? I read that the IX4-300D is not hot-swappable. So do I just power the IX4-300D down, replace the hard drive, and turn it back on?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi exceptionalht,
It is best to replace the hard drive with one that is the same manufacturer, rotational speed, and capacity, so it does not have to be exactly the same model.
The front panel should show which drive has failed. If not you can check the web interface to find out.
That is the basic procedure for replacing a hard drive. You can see a more detailed instructions here: Installing hard drives in an ix4-300d

I need confirmation, please help me! (about adding new hdd on my ix4-300d)

Hello,
I buy recently a Lenovo ix4-300d, I have installed one hdd seagate 2To (ST2000VN000).
I saved many documents on it..
Today I want to install 2 others hdd WD 1To (WD10EZEX).
After reboot a message tells me I need to erase all data on the news disks before I can use it, so I confirm, all seems ok.. After that a message appear on the left "2 disks unused".
Now (step 3 page74 on the .pdf guide) I need to check the box "add drives to storage system" and click confirm to activate the news disks, so I do, but I have this message:
"Vous devez supprimer les données existantes pour pouvoir modifier la configuration du disque.
Cochez cette case pour continuer."
(in english "You must erase existing data for change the disk configuration" or something like that)
I don't want to loose all the data on my first hdd already in use.. ..and the 2 others news disks are empty.
So, there is my question:
if I check the box and click continue what "existing data" will be erase??
existing data on all hdd?? Or just on the new one??
nb: Sorry for "my english" but there is no french section in the forum, and the assistance don't answer me by email, and on the phone there is an answerphone tells me "for help if you don't have the error number code, you must go on the forum, bye.." .. .. I hope my question is understandable.
Thanks

Hello tictictac
Sorry that you experienced data loss, however it was preventable if a backup had been made as recommended.
From the screen shot you sent it looks like the drives were already added to the existing array after the first drive overwrite request. With the array being made up of mixed disk models and none of the disks showing any green stipes indicating overwrite selection, I can not say for certain what caused all the disks to be wiped. I suspect that is was taken as a RAID change and all disks were wiped from there.
For future reference please check the device support page to see the guides, FAQ's, and download the full user manual( in French here ) and check with LenovoEMC support in your region. The Europe support region has several languages available to choose from including the France number +33 17048 0388. The full list of Europe numbers can be found here.

Ix4-300d firmware update canceling

Hi,
im trying to update my ix4-300d from version 4.0.4.14600 to version 4.1.104.31360.
I downloaded the h4c-4.1.104.31360.tgz and checked its md5: 54b576b17f4628ee5465880418a37e0b to be sure it was not corrupted during download.
Then I upload the tgz-file to the NAS using the Web-Management and click to apply the update. He starts to decompress the update-file, but after a minute he jumps back to the management-page again and the systemlog states
Info: Software is getting updated to new version
Err: Software could not be updated, due to damaged Update-File
If I connect over ssh and check the md5 of the update-file, its still the same hash as stated on the lenovo-website, so the update-file itself is definitly fine.
md5sum /mnt/system/upgrade/staging/firmware/upgrade.bin gives the same hash 54b576b17f4628ee5465880418a37e0b .
I can see in top that he tryies to decompress the upgrade.bin through openssl and gzip and tar but is failing somehow.I did not found a logfile for this procedure yet.
Any Help appreciated.
