Unfortunately no one can be told what fun_plug is - you have to see it for yourself.

Amber LEDS... (posted from another thread for clarity)
Seems if there were a genuine hard drive problem, it would be one drive but not both, as is happening. All the DLINK documentation is pretty weak - 'hard drive failure'. Also, it would not work when the 323 is restarted, but it works fine for 5-10-15 minutes. I can read files, update directories, copy folders, etc. I watched about 20 minutes of a blu-ray movie being streamed from the DNS before it quit streaming, but the DNS is still alive and was restarted from the web interface. I'm wondering is this is possibly a heat related problem, and if so, how would I know if I have alerts enabled, but can't get a successful email test using gmail, since I believe non-standard ports are not supported? Is there a log somewhere that would tell me something?
Thanks,

Thanks for the reply.
At this point, I have no apps installed, except to support fun_plug, and that is minimal - only telnetd. I removed twonky. When you refer to 'flash', do you mean the tmp subdirectory and contents? If so, is there something I can monitor to give me some clues about the possible offender?

This is what I have - the file serving just stopped
/ # df -h
Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/ram0 9.7M 7.3M 1.9M 80% /
/dev/loop0 5.6M 5.6M 0 100% /sys/crfs
/dev/md0 456.7G 375.6G 81.2G 82% /mnt/HD_a2
Is this helpful to anyone?

Any other ideas about why both hard drive get the PINK/AMBER LEDS and go offline? I have looked everywhere on these threads and have no clue.

Ok. I think I'm onto something here. I removed left hand drive of raid set, re-started, no change. Repeated with right hand drive, no change. I am attempting to eliminate variables, so I disabled the itunes server and the UP server and re-started. I'm now 46 minutes into a movie being streamed from the DNS and still running. Is it possible that some settings and options are incompatible? I have been using the itunes and up server since day 1. I attempted to configure the DDNS, but was unsuccessful, so I disabled it. Now wondering if all these changes and settings have identified a bug?
I'll keep posting.

Up for 2 hours...still alive. I will re-join the hard drive to the raid and re-start and see what happens

Apparently those items fixed the HDD, but in the process of re-syncing the raid1, I have broken my telnet access. I attempted to re-intstall fun_plug, but I believe I had an earlier version installed and when I broke and re-assembled the raid, the fun_plug never gets installed. I placed the fun_plug and the tar in the volume1 directory, but it is never accessed, and the FPP subdirectory is never created.
fun_plug.d/etc/funplug-version contents show this to be version 0.3
Any ideas on how to get telnet working again, or the updated current version fun_plug installed?
Thanks again

Just figured out the problem. I have 2 drives, one is a former raid1 member, and the other was added as a non-raid, giving 2 volumes. I copied the fun_plug installation to the drive with nothing on it, and re-started and now it installed on the new drive.
telnet is up and alive

I had the same "blue-for-a-while-then-pink" problem that happened after a blackout. The drives where ok, so I thought the problem was somewhere in the firmware (or in the flash memory). I did an upgrade from 1.07 to the 1.08b5 and the pink leds appeared as well. Then I decided to reset the DNS to the factory default and downgraded it to 1.06 (because I have a 1.5TB drive). Now it's running well for about 6 hours. Let's see if it stays that way...

So you figured a power outage corrupted your flash - interesting.
Theoretically possible, but unlikely - not unless you were writing to flash at the time of the outage, and there are checksums that would allow the processor to discover the corruption - so if it boots and runs, the chances of there having been random corruption of the flash memory, are slim to nil.
