Synology NAS Hardreset via SSH
You are using a Synology NAS like the Disk Station series and something happens so you aren’t able to make a hardreset via the physical button you can also do this reset via SSH
You ask why this happened? Today it happened by restarting the Disk Station via the Web-GUI but the Disk Station did no restart and nothing worked really fine after this restart try. The only possibility was to connect via SSH and i tried the command „reboot“ – nothing happened again After some time of investigation i found a solution: you can simulate the hardware butten push via a simple command and here we go:
echo 1 >/dev/ttyS1
Clarification: „1“ = Power Off, „0“ = Button power, „C“ = Reset
Have fun by restarting your NAS via SSH
