ReadyNAS 6 pro power down mode
Is there anyway to "trick" the Readynas 6 Pro into going into power down mode during 2 different intervals ??
I have mine set to power down from 3PM to 6PM (Peak Energy Hours), but no one uses it in the middle of the night, so there are Kilowatts to save there too.
I have searched and don't see a solution, would be great to have 2 different shutdown periods

You might be able to do it. But you would need to manually edit some config files. Are you comfortable with using SSH?

Re: ReadyNAS 6 pro power down mode
Try editing /etc/cron.d/poweroff and /etc/frontview/poweron_timer
Or maybe create a new cron entry for the additional poweroff.

Re: ReadyNAS 6 pro power down mode
Part of the way there....
Power on seems relatively straightforward. I edited /etc/frontview/poweron_timer and added the additional power on times / days
poweroff has me a bit lost
If i more /etc/cron.d/poweroff if shows 5 entries that correspond to the 5 power off times in the frontview menu (I think)
this is where my ignorance shows
I dont see where the 5 entries get their time from or how to add additional
help please ??

Re: ReadyNAS 6 pro power down mode
Look at some MAN pages e.g. for crontab.

Re: ReadyNAS 6 pro power down mode
What does the /etc/cron.d/poweroff file look like now?

Re: ReadyNAS 6 pro power down mode
So minutes 55, hour 14 (2 pm), * (everyday of the month), * (every month). Then the final digit 1 indicates only run it if it is Monday, the 2 if it is Tuesday etc.

Re: ReadyNAS 6 pro power down mode
Apparently something has changed with the Readynas
My previous working values have disappeared, my additions are gone.
Only the settings in the frontpage menu exist
That was without doing an upgrade.
I have done an upgrade today prior to re-adding my entries
I noticed via my power consumption I have re-added my additions
any idea why ??
