- Minor
Due to overheating issues, my data disk rebuild is pausing (using Parity Check Tuning) when drives get too hot.
* At 00:21 this morning, the rebuild was paused due to heat at 57.7% complete
* At 00:30 the normally scheduled parity check was initiated by the scheduler
* At 00:35 the parity check (which does seem to be rebuilding the data) paused again due to temperatures, now at 0.4% complete.
Screenshots of the Pushover notifications showing this:
I reported this in the General forum where JorgeB confirmed the issue by manually pausing a check on a test system without PCT installed, confirming it's a bug in the base Parity Check launch logic allowing the check to restart a running, but paused check or (much more critically) rebuild. (Also, I pointed out the "%%" typo and itimpi is going to fix that in PCT).
I agree with JorgeB that this is something of an edge case, but, for those running with single parity and on not the highest-end hardware, it does extend the "at risk" time running one drive down. I'm glad I was "only" at 58% complete, not 90+% complete - that would have been extremely frustrating!
