Problems with Time and Date Settings
The administrator is able to select an NTP Server to keep Thecus IP storage time
synchronized. However, if Thecus IP storage cannot access the Internet, you may
encounter a problem when setting the Time and Time Zone. If this happens:
1. Login to the Web Administration Interface.
2. Navigate to System Management>Time.
3. Under NTP Server, select No.
4. Set the Date, Time, and Time Zone.
5. Click Apply.
In addition, if the Thecus IP storage is able to access the Internet and you want to
keep the NTP Server clock.isc.org by default, please make sure the DNS Server is
correctly entered, thereby allowing the NTP Server name to correctly resolve. (See
System Network > WAN/LAN1 > DNS Server)
Dual DOM Supports for Dual Protection (N12000
series/N16000 series/N8900 series only)
The most advance and useful feature on the Thecus IP storage (depend on models)
is the implemented Dual DOM. Under normal circumstances, there is no need to
have this feature involved. But some unpredictable problems like power cut or
human error can occur by accident, especially during system booting stage; the
Dual Dom will become the best feature to prevent system down time.
Practically while it happened, system will try to recover the DOM 1 from DOM 2 first.
If it is unachievable then the system can boot from DOM 2. And all of these
procedures can be operated through the OLED.
NOTE
The DOM1 in Dual DOM is by default the master DOM and FW updates will
only apply to DOM1. DOM2 is ‘Read only”.
If anything happened and the DOM1 is recovered from DOM2, the FW
version will be the one of the DOM2. Therefore, it may need to be
upgraded to the version of DOM1.
If DOM1 can not be recovered from DOM2, the system will boot up from
DOM2. The original configuration of DOM1 may need to be setup again
with DOM2 operations.
