You can get rid of this message in one of two ways, and one of those
ways is to do a "flash_install upgrade."  The other way is as follows:

Edit /etc/fstab and change the 6th field from a 0 to a 1 for the three
mounted partitions /, /var, and /onstor/conf.  Example:

old:

/dev/sdb1       /       ext3    defaults 0 0

new:

/dev/sdb1       /       ext3    defaults 0 1

Next, execute the following command to disable time-based checking:


# for d in a b; do for p in 1 3 4; do tune2fs -i 0 /dev/sd$d$p; done; done


The next time you reboot, e2fsck will check your partition(s), and
reset the max-mount-count, and again any time a partition exceeds its
max-mount-count.  You should not see the message again.

Cheers,
