Hi,
I’ve got a few new 1100AH’s which we’re trying to get MetaRouters to work.
The 1100AH’s came with 5.8 installed, so we’re using those.
Just adding a new MetaRouter comes up with the error:-
“Couldn’t add New MetaROUTER - not enough resources (6)”
Of course this unit isn’t being used for anything else. Brand new.
We’ve got a microSD in there for any storage etc., but at this point I don’t even think that should be needed.
Are we going to be able to get this to work?
Thanks,
Warren
it seems i ned more details

Of course I’m away from the unit right now, and won’t be able to check till tomorrow morning.
Having said that, I vaguely recall that the HDD space was some odd number less than 50MB and the free was some equally odd number less than that.
Faulty unit?
I’ll check in the morning, and get back to you.
NAND size can vary.
Yeah, NAND size may very but not by that much surely?
Anyway, here are the details…

Any ideas?
We’ve got two of these units, and they’re both doing the same thing.
Thanks.
please crate supout.rif after unsuccessful attempt to create metarouter and send it to support.

I did actually get these to work. (Not sure how stable they are! So far the can be running, but put any significant load on the metarouter, causes the entire routerboad to reboot!)
To get them to work we attempted to downgrade to 5.7, which failed, and then we did a netinstall to take them back up to 5.8.

We’ve the same problem, just bought four 1100AH with the explicit purpose to use them with MetaRouter, as MetaRouter is not stable on e.g 450G. We really need a fast feedback/solution as otherwise we’ll send them back as not working, which we can’t do if we keep it longer than for a few days. We bought the router, because you wrote in an other thread that the best solution for the instability of the MetaRouter on some MIPS boards is do use PowerPC boards.

Where is 512 MB nand???

~1/10th the storage space as the last one. Seems to be a batch wide problem? Ugly.
I just bought some RB1100AH and running into this issue. Anyone know if this is fixed yet. I have RB1100 series running 7 customers with MetaRouters and working great but at its limits for metarouters due to memory. I wanted to upgrade to the AH and have a little more overhead since we just doubled the speed to all the customers. Any updates would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Ben
We’ve a testversion of a software upgrade which seems to be stable in our tests with metarouter, but we’re still testing it. Don’t know if other customers are testing it.
Edit: Just found out that RouterOS v5.9 has been released … we needed to flash our test version via netinstall to make it work.
Same problem here with 5.11 Supporticket placed @ Mikrotik #2011121266000651
Hope to get a solution …
It’s great … 2GB RAM and 40MB HDD. Very funny …

not funny, it is a router.
A router doesn’t use RAM or the HDD. You could in similar style complain about industrial tractors having limited top speed compared to street cars. They do different things, and use different resources.
but a router with virtualisation support, which can’t be really used with 40mb 
Metarouter is not supported on RB1100AHx2
