1. Getting Started

This NETGEAR® ReadyNAS for Home RAIDiator 5.3 Software Manual describes how to

configure and manage your ReadyNAS storage system.

Your ReadyNAS® storage system relies on the following software applications:

• RAIDar. Use this setup utility to find your ReadyNAS system on your local area network

and launch Dashboard.

• Dashboard. Use this browser-based interface to configure and manage your ReadyNAS

system.

This chapter includes the following sections:

• Quick-Start Guide

• Additional Documentation

• Diskless Units

• RAIDar

• Setup Wizard

• Diskless Units

Getting Started

ReadyNAS for Home RAIDiator 5.3

Quick-Start Guide

This manual provides conceptual information about storage systems, detailed instructions

about using your system, and NETGEAR’s recommendations about configuring, managing,

and backing up your system. NETGEAR recommends that you read this manual to make the

best use of your storage system.

To quickly start using your system, review the following sections in this order:

1. RAIDar on page 8. You use RAIDar to discover your storage system on your network.

2. Setup Wizard on page 12. This wizard guides you through initial setup of your system in a

few simple screens.

3. Create Shares on page 32. Shares are similar to folders or directories and are the way you

organize the data you store on your ReadyNAS system.

4. Create User Accounts on page 47. You create a user account for each person that you want

to allow to access your ReadyNAS system.

5. Basic Backup Concepts on page 77. You can back up the data you store on your

ReadyNAS system and you can use your ReadyNAS system to back up data you store on

other devices.

Additional Documentation

NETGEAR maintains a community website that supports ReadyNAS products. Visit

http://www.readynas.com for reviews, tutorials, comparison charts, software updates,

documentation, an active user forum, and much more.

For information about your system’s hardware, see the ReadyNAS Duo v2 and NV+ v2

Hardware Manual, which is available at http://www.readynas.com/documentation.

Diskless Units

If you have a diskless ReadyNAS storage system, you must first install and format at least

one disk before you can use RAIDar or Dashboard. For more information, see the

ReadyNAS Duo v2 and NV+ v2 Hardware Manual.

To obtain support from NETGEAR technical support, you must use disks included on the

Hardware Compatibility List in your ReadyNAS system. The list is available at

http://www.readynas.com/hard_disk_hcl.

Getting Started

ReadyNAS for Home RAIDiator 5.3

RAIDar

RAIDar is a software application that you use to discover ReadyNAS storage systems on

your network. RAIDar is included on the Resource CD that came with your unit. It includes

versions for Windows, Mac, and Linux operating systems. It is also available at

http://www.readynas.com/duo_nvplus_start.

RAIDar displays several icons to help you determine the status of your system, as shown in

the following figure.

123456

Figure 1. RAIDar icons

1. Overall status

2. Volume status

3. Disk status

4. UPS status

5. Fan status

6. Temperature

The following table provides a description of each LED icon.

Table 1. RAIDar LED icon descriptions

LED icon Description

No disk or device is attached.

The device is operating normally.

The device failed or needs attention.

This disk is a spare disk on standby. If a disk fails, this disk takes over

automatically.

(Blinking) This disk is currently resyncing.

Getting Started

ReadyNAS for Home RAIDiator 5.3

You can use the following buttons to learn more about the ReadyNAS system or systems on

your network:

• Setup. Launches Dashboard for the highlighted system.

• Browse. Displays the shares available on the highlighted system. This feature works on

the Windows platform only.

• Rescan. Updates the list of ReadyNAS systems on the network and updates the status of

each system it discovers.

• Locate. Causes the LEDs on the highlighted system to blink. This is useful if you have

multiple ReadyNAS storage systems and you need to determine which RAIDar entry

corresponds to which physical system.

• About. Displays RAIDar information.

• Help. Displays the help screen.

• Exit. Closes RAIDar.

To discover your ReadyNAS system and launch Dashboard:

1. Install the appropriate version of RAIDar on a computer that is connected to the same

Iocal area network (LAN) as your ReadyNAS storage system.

2. If you are using Windows XP before SP2, disable the Internet connection firewall.

The volume is in life-support mode.

Life-support mode happens when the volume encounters multiple

disk failures and might be dead. However, the ReadyNAS storage

system blocked it from being marked dead in case someone

accidentally removed the wrong disk while the system was running. If

the wrong disk was pulled out, shut down the system immediately,

reconnect the disk, and restart the system.

Note: If you reconnect the disk while the system is

running,the disk will be marked asanewlyaddeddiskand

all the data on that disk will be lost during the initialization

process.

A lengthy background task such as a system update is in progress.

Table 1. RAIDar LED icon descriptions (Continued)

Getting Started

ReadyNAS for Home RAIDiator 5.3

3. Launch the RAIDar utility.

RAIDar displays a window that lists the ReadyNAS system or systems on your network

and provides details about the status of each system it discovers.

The default IP configuration is set to DHCP, which is how home routers assign IP

addresses by default.

If you are not using DHCP on your router, or if it is not working correctly, your storage

system cannot get an IP address. In that case, your system uses 192.168.168.168. If this

happens, you must make a direct connection between your storage system and your

computer. To establish this connection, follow your operating system’s instructions for

assigning a static IP address to your computer in the 192.168.168 subnet.

If your ReadyNAS system is not detected, check the following and click Rescan to try

again:

• Make sure the ReadyNAS device is turned on and is connected to your network.

• Make sure your client PC running RAIDar is on the same subnet as the ReadyNAS

device.

• If you are running RAIDar on Windows XP before SP2, disable the Internet

connection firewall.
