Hi everybody,
I'm still quite new with XPEnology but I've been running the summer vacation on an old PC. At the bottom you will find the PC information.
Today I wanted to update my XPEnology PC. I quickly arrived at the Forum that v1.02 is not suitable for DSM 6.2! so looking for which version I ran now and Jun V1.02 with DSM 6.1.6-15266 update 1. Then the last version of DSM 6.2.1-23824 and JUNV1.03B after I did this I went to the installation procedure to follow, so put new USB in there JUN and PC restart and put I want DSM 6.2.1-23824 and PC reboot okay everything seems good to this point! I can not see my NAS coming online with an IP address !!!! so panic of what now.
In doing so, I first went to see if I could go back to a previous version of DSM, unfortunately I could not get an IP address with every reboot of a recovery. Then JUN version went back the same story. Then I tried after hours and searched for this link
Here were some tips that I have followed and I succeeded and I now run on version DSM 6.2-23739 with last JUN V1.03B
Steps I have taken (YOU HAVE ALL YOUR APPS LOST BUT DATA REMAINS ON DISKS)
1) Disconnect all disks
2) Connect a spare HDD to SATA port 1
3) reinstall USB with JUN V1.03B and download DSM DSM 6.2-23739, create an administrator user and a server name that matches the live system, do NOT make volume / raid. (Update DSM with your pre-beta version)
4) Shut down, reconnect raid drives to SATA ports 2-n
5) Restart, log in, go to Storage Manager
there you can fix partitions on raid, Check if all your data is visible again and switch off NAS.
6) Remove backup HDD and reconnect raid drives to SATA ports 1-n
7) Start your NAS, Login and check your data.
8) Turn off automatic update.
I also updated from DSM 6.2-23739 to DSM 6.2.1-23824 while attempting to repair my NAS AND THAT'S NOT WELL !! DO NOT UPDATE !!
