Security Updates

  • Applied multiple security updates to further enhance system security.

Enhancement

Network & Virtual Switch
  • Improved the DHCP server creation and editing process. When creating a DHCP server, you can also set reserved IP addresses. It is now also possible to create a DHCP server when the adapter is using a DHCP IP address, although we still strongly recommend using a static IP address.
  • You can now directly set the DHCP IP address of a client device as a reserved IP address.
  • Adapter connection statuses are now displayed in “Network > Interfaces > Thunderbolt”.
Storage & Snapshot
  • Updated Western Digital Device Analytics (WDDA) to version 8.70.5 for improved stability.

Fixed Issues

  • Resolved an unusual issue where some users experienced RAID group and shared folder errors after a firmware update.
  • Fixed an issue where ARM-based NAS models could not join a Windows Server 2025 domain.
  • Fixed an issue where some users could not successfully stop Hyper Data Protector in App Center.
  • Resolved a rare issue in the kernel-mode SMB daemon that caused the NAS to stop responding for some users.
  • Fixed an issue where some Snapshot Replica files could not be restored and no log messages would be recorded about them.
  • Resolved an issue where some users could not restore files from a remote snapshot vault to a local shared folder.
  • Fixed a log message that displayed the wrong operating system.
  • Addressed a UI issue in the App Center settings window when the display language was set to French.
  • Fixed an unusual issue where a storage pool could not be recovered after a NAS restart due to a RAM error.
  • Resolved a rare issue where under certain conditions some users could not recover a storage pool after replacing a disk.
  • Fixed an issue where users could not successfully create a SnapSync job using existing LUNs.
  • Fixed an issue in Control Panel where right-clicking an empty area would open a context menu with the “Create Shortcut” action.
  • Improved WebDAV transfer speeds.
  • Improved the login authentication mechanism on certain NAS models.
  • Fixed a rare issue where the NAS would stop responding after the user tried to delete a user account.
  • Fixed an issue where even though the QDA-A2AR adapter was already running the latest firmware, the system would still notify users that there was a newer firmware version available.
  • Fixed an issue where after restarting the NAS, the system would incorrectly indicate that port trunking groups were degraded.
  • Resolved an issue where using HBS 3 to back up many small files from QTS to QuTS hero might end up occupying more storage space at the destination than the original total size of the files.
  • Optimized the system’s storage efficiency.
  • Fixed an issue for some users where after a firmware update, the DNS setting for a virtual switch might disappear and become unconfigurable.

So far no seen issues.

Upgraded my h874 and 873a without issue so far

TVS-h1288X - after upgrade getting out of memory issues when HBS jobs run. Plenty of RAM available though. Reverting to previous firmware.

Raise a ticket with Qnap so they can investigate the issue

Copy that, created ticket. After reverting to previous firmware, issue still occurred. Turned off HBS, container station and HDP for now

RAM usage shows 19 GB free. Free command in cli only shows 4 GB free though. Presuming ZFS ARC issue
