How long is your Boot time?

[spikemixture]

How long does it take your NAS to boot?

I have a TVS-1282 32gb with 8x 8TB drives 4x SSD and 4x M,2 SSD
A few VM's (1 running 24/7), Plex plus several other apps.

It take around 10 minutes to be seen by Qfinder then another 5-10 mins to load the programs.

Reboot add another 5 minutes at least while apps close..

Just moved my power source so shutdown NAS
On booting was stuck on Bios Memory checking for 20+ mins and had to physically shutdown and start again
So that was a 45 minute boot !

TVS1282T3 with TX800P:

the stuck on Bios thing has hit me in the past a few times, if it doesn't pass this test for more than 30 secs it's hard reboot time!

Normal boot (until the blue light stops blinking) takes 5-10mins I guess, never timed it but it is rather long.

Why have 80 people looked at this post and 1 replied?

How long does it take to reply with a number - 2 minutes, 5 minutes etc etc.

Less than it takes to open and read this post I bet..

If I had the same model as yours, I would reply.

Valid point but how will anyone know if it is the model and apps or the OS taking so long if no one answers!

Mine takes a while, waiting for the 'bleep' around 6 minutes - got no vms but have container station and the usual stuff, kodi etc

[mdhwoods]

lately mine hangs on reboot and requires a hard reboot. Started a few firmwares ago. usually only when its been running for some time. i have a tvs-682 and it takes a while to reboot even when it doesnt hang.

And have you guys opened help desk tickets to see if it would a a bios issue needing fixed, qts issue, etc.

Posting times, me too’s without opening help desk tickets is kinda pointless since QNAP doesn’t actively monitor the forums.

I am asking because compared to a Synology NAS of similar size it takes 3-4 x as long.

If 10+ minutes is the norm then not much use opening a ticket .

Going by the very few answers it appears to be a qnap thing but 3 outta 450+ views is not much of a survey!

They are slow to boot and it seems to get worse as they get newer and newer firmware. As a comparison my old TS-439 shuts down and boots lightning fast running Debian when compared to my TVS-882 running QTS.

I'm interested in this, so I'll post my experience. I just purchased a TS-230 with a single 3 TB Western Digital Red Plus drive. I noticed just now that the device takes a long time to become available after startup. I hear the beep pretty quickly - I'd guess at about 1 minute. But the box is not pingable on the network for at least 5 minutes. So, I took a look at QuLog Center, and here's what I see:

Code: Select all

The system was definitely not reachable 2 seconds after startup, despite the log claiming that the adapter was connected at that time. If I had to guess, I'd say I couldn't connect from my PC (on same physical switch) until after the Malware Remover was done and the disk quieted down. That's a little annoying actually that it takes this long. Perhaps I'll adjust the Malware Remover to only run once a week. I only connect to this QNAP for backups, inside my house - no connectivity from outside - and I run anti-virus on my Windows systems (and I'm old, so low risk profile.)

I previously had an old PC running Linux as homegrown NAS. I got spoiled by that being available probably 15 seconds after power on. I'd be interested to see any additional reports of availability delay after power on.

I would say 10+ minutes is definitely the norm.
I have my main NAS (TS-h886) set up like yours I guess, running PLEX and several other apps. From triggering a reboot, stopping all apps, restart to finished reboot, so all apps started again takes around 22 minutes in my case..
My TVS-682 is quite a bit quicker, but that has mainly to do with the fact that pretty much the only app it's running is HBS3, but apart from that 8 - 10 min does not sound strange to me also.

lately mine hangs on reboot and requires a hard reboot. Started a few firmwares ago. usually only when its been running for some time. i have a tvs-682 and it takes a while to reboot even when it doesnt hang.

My TVS-682 had the same problem quite some time ago, strangly enough it did not happen at every reboot.
Nowadays I believe I don't have this problem anymore, but then again, my TVS-682 is actually not running any apps anymore, so this could be what changed it..

5m20s - TS-230, got a few apps Plex, and the photo management ones, etc
Seems like an age, sux to have it over 10m

It wasn't until 5.20 that I got the final beep, then I could load the page and log in

Thanks to the guys that answered.

It does appear to be the norm for Qnap boxes to take a long time.

Most well over 5 minutes and upto 22 minutes from a post here.

Currently my 1277 takes 15 minutes from clicking reboot to apps being usuable!

[dawsonkm]

My boxes take 5-7 mins. I'm running very few apps on them
