This can only be accessed from one device at a time (so the files are not shared), and the NAS has no way to know what's in the LUN. "iSCSI creates a virtual disk on the NAS. If it does, get more licenses of SAN-MP.Īccording to the Netgear guys an iSCSI Lun can only be accessed from one device at a time

Get a demo license of SAN-MP and make an iSCSI LUN from that ReadyNAS and try that. Finder is the issue, so only something that either replaces it or fundamentally changes how it works will work here. You can even use Windows Storage Server for Acronis so a refurbished HP Storageworks box would do you.No CALs requiredĪnother NAS is not going to solve the issue with the Finder. You literally couldn't test this in a larger Mac environment or get closer to 100% guarantee, Windows Server is hardly a risk either (well OK it has its limitations)

My last job was the largest Apple install in the world (I think thats been overtaken now) Acronis is the standard/de facto solution. Apple discussions forum is about the least reliable source of information since the North Korean news agency Turning off IPv6 has no impact on this issue, its disabled by default on every Mac we deploy. Perhaps another NAS drive but firstly this issue must be resolvable and secondly I would need to be 100% certain that whatever we implement is going to work and not have the same problem. I dont think the client would be averse to trying another server but I doubt they would want to put in a Windows Server. My knowledge is limited and as I am in a remote location 240 miles from the client I need to tread carefully as to what we try. There is a long thread here on the Apple forum with yet more suggestions to resolve similar problems. I have another colleague assisting with this issue now who is more up to speed then I am on Mac stuff and he has found that turning of IPv6 can make a difference. Not sure if this should be a discussion or a question but I will post it as a question. So although it remembers it once opened, it forgets it on reboot. Once you reboot it takes finder an age to open it again. What I discovered last night when remotely connected is once you open a folder which can take an age the next time you go back into that folder it opens straight away. The problem has been there for sometime but I gather it got worse with the latest OS upgrade.It would seem its an Apple Finder issue. I was out of ideas and then started wondering if the problem was an Apple one and I found this old thread on here and it seems it is. Tried all the different apple protocols for connecting.

Tried a new switch, swapped the port over to the one the PC is running on and just the same.
#Mucommander icon upgrade
We have even had a Netgear engineer remote into the Nas and make changes to the SMB settings and upgrade the firmware. I have been trying at some length working with Netgear support to resolve this to no avail so far. Other one is a iMac (retina 5k 27 inch late 2014). Both Macs are running 10.11.3 El Capitan and are an iMac (24inch, early 2008). The two Macs however are really really slow, often taking up to 3 minutes just to open a folder on a share. The PC's on the network access the Readynas really quickly.

Some time ago we installed a Netgear Readynas 102 6TB file server. The client is a small print and design company in the UK. I found this brilliant forum (I have been browsing) while desperately trying to find a solution for a long term client. I'm a newbie but an oldie if you know what I mean.īeen in IT for as long as I can remember but now semi retired.
