My server is set to go to sleep after an hour of inactivity. But for some reason the S3 plugin is detecting activity on one of my cache drives every 30 minutes like clockwork. This is a recent development so I though it may have been caused by a docker program after I moved the docker.img file to my cache. But disabling the docker service didn't fix the issue.
Does anyone have an idea about what keeps pinging my cache drive?
I'm having the same issue. I've disabled VMs and docker to ensure nothing will try to access the cache drive. Device activity monitoring is set to counters only. Looking at /proc/diskstats I can see there is a read on all disks in the cache pool and array (sdb, sdc, etc.) but none of the actual partitions (sdb1, sdc1, etc.) every ~28 minutes.
Edit: It turned out to be the SMART data polling. Changing poll_attributes in disk settings to something longer than the sleep delay solves the issue.
