[6.12.12] Harddrives can't be spun down

Quote

There was a commit in v6.6.44 and it was backported to the
v6.10.3 and v6.1.103 according to Christian Heusel and it breaks something with hdparm and i think it is a culprit of your problem too.

Okay, seems unraid 6.12.12 is a skip for me, and I will have to wait for a fixed kernel

Here is the message on the kernel mailing list:

Quite embarrassing that this has not been caught in testing for unraid

I have the same problem. If I stop the disks manually, they start again immediately without anything ever accessing them, let alone writing to them.

Since I don't use IPV6, here are my diagnostic filestower-diagnostics-20240822-0059.zip

I don't think diagnostic is at all necessary. The bug has already been acknowledged on the kernel mailing list and it only affects 6.1.103

Unraid has to ship a new version with updated linux kernel to fix it.

Thanks, hold for update to v6.12.12 first.

Same here....

 

Seagate ST16000NM001G : NG

Toshiba MN05ACA800 : NG

Toshiba MN05ACA600 : NG

If the problem is in the kernel, are we talking about days or weeks until a solution arrives at Unraid?

Because then I would rather downgrade...

-faxxe

 

Same issue here. Cannot spin down Exos and IronWolf drives.

I only see the issue with drives connected to an LSI HBA, onboard SATA still spin down fine, but it appears to have been already fixed in the kernel.

It also happens on a ASM1166 Serial ATA Controller here.

Confirmed here too, drives ran all night, all mobo SATA, downgraded for now

Yeah, also see the issue with different onboard SATA controller, so not all are affected, good news is that I can confirm that kernel 6.1.106 with that commit reverted fixes the issue, so I would expect 6.12.13 with that kernel to be released soon.

I also can't spin drives down on 6.12.12.  Some various seagates and WD Reds.  Some are on Sata controller card and some on the motherboard.  Downgraded back to 6.12.11.

spelling

Same issue here - some HDDs connected via LSI HBA and some directly to motherboard. Running on a Supermicro X11 board.

Same problem here with Exos and WD Red drives since 6.12.12. On the previous version spin-down worked fine.

Same issue on my machine after upgrading to 6.12.12

Please update to 6.12.13.

Probably barely tested by unraid. I am not happy that it was fixed that fast, because it is impossible that proper testing was done leaving a way for other regressions to sneak in.

Then don't update ? 🤷‍♂️

My drives aren't spinning down either, and they used to do so correctly until I installed this update.

Known issue that is fixed in the 6.12.13 release.

I just updated from 6.12.11 straight to 6.12.13 and it does not spin down automatically. Manual spin down command works though

That would be a different issue then, try reaplying the setting, and make sure nothing is using the disks, there are no other reports of spin down issues with 6.12.13 AFAIK.
