Readynas102 - control disk spin down and power through CLI
Hi, Just redoing my NAS and out of date with the software a little Before I go digging through files does anyone happen know, through CLI/ bash script how to control * Wakeon lan (ethtool?) *...
Power settings and spindown are in /ect/cron.d. Since ethtool is installed by default in ReadyNASOS, I assume that's what they are using for WoL control. It certainly reports the correct WoL state on my NAS, though I did not try changing anything to see if the GUI picked it up. Though written for Ubuntu (which is a fork of Debian), the following should help: HOW-TO:Set_up_Wake-on-LAN_for_Ubuntu.
Thanks Sandshark,
I'll have a play next week and report back but that's narrowed the search for me, much appreciated.
Looking quickly as spindown I'm not
Whatever delay you set the cron job is still the same
00 00 * * 0 root /usr/bin/spindown_schedule 1 &> /dev/null
Though it seems to be changing NOFLUSHD=10 in cat /etc/default/services
but also TIMEOUT=10 in /etc/default/noflushd
Not quite sure the order of what is changing what at the moment. Next week.
Thanks again
