Is it possible to have the 'Minimum PWM value' active all the time? As it is now, the fans shutoff when the hard disks sleep. It would also be desirable for the option to have the CPU fan to react to CPU temp rather than hard disk temp.

Hey Folks! I'm configuring a QNAP TVS-h874 + TL-D800S for a total of 16 18TB drives. The 800S expansion unit connects to the 874 using a 2-port SATA 6Gb/s pcie card. Each port controls 4 of the disk drives on 800S. I intend to create an array using all 16 disk (2 of them for parity). My question is - where should I place the parity drives to optimize performance? I've numbered the bays in the image below.

So I believe I spoke too soon... this problem is persisting. I'm only able to fix it by selecting 'DETECT' under the PWM fan setting and then choosing apply. The value in the settings doesn't change when I re-detect it, but it seems to update the setting in the running app. What I noticed, is that the value in the settings doesn't match what's in the config file. Settings shows 'hwmon4' while the config file shows 'hwmon2'. It's as if the settings are not being pushed to the startup config file, although the settings page shows the correct values after a reboot. I tried to modify the config to match what's in the settings page, but then it returns a permissions denied error when starting. Any ideas?

Simon, I resolved the problem by enabled spanning-tree portfast on my Cisco switch. Prior to enabling portfast, spanning-tree was blocking network access for ~ 50 sec as a loop prevention mechanism. Thanks for the help with this!

Soulplayer, this seems to have resolved my issue, thanks for the tip! Anyone know if it's possible to run two instance of Auto Fan Control to control two different PWMs?

This is occurring on a new install with no arrays or other services. So, nothing that should block internet access, however the logs show a network failure event.

How would I then apply the locally stored lcd_manager settings via cli?

Hi! I installed this plugin on a new QNAP running unraid 6.12.11. It works great, however the plugin doesn't survive a reload. The plugin shows up under the 'Plugin File Install Errors' after a reboot, but I don't know where to find the log file. Any suggestions? Cheers!

I just installed the Auto Fan Control plugin in unraid 6.12.11 on a QNAP TVS-h874. After installation, I configure the minimum PWM value and it increases the fan speed as expected. Upon reboot, the fans run at minimum speed despite the plugin showing the previously configured PWM value. If I re-apply the same value, the fan speed increases once again. Why is the PWM value not applied during bootup?
