HELP! Alternative to hardware reset please?

Post by defard »

Hi

Someone hacked / accessed my server remotely. They changed the password and the hardware reset does not appear to work.

Can anyone advise what I can do please.

I have a TS 253A with two drives in Raid 1.

HW reset (holding reset for at least 3 seconds] should work.

If you are sure you are doing it right, you could re-initialize and restore from your external backups.

Have you shut down remote access yet?

If you can’t login then the options TREXX has given are your only options.
Use the forum search feature before posting.

Use RAID and external backups. RAID will protect you from disk failure, keep your system running, and data accessible while the disk is replaced, and the RAID rebuilt. Backups will allow you to recover data that is lost or corrupted, or from system failure. One does not replace the other.
