I have been using "/usr/local/sbin/mdcmd spindown" in my after wakeup command without any problems for quite some time. Is there a compelling reason that i should be using a web-based version like you are suggesting?

You need to add an after wakeup command to spin (up or down) the drives. It has been discussed elsewhere in this thread, see the link below.

@bonienl is a write-up for plugin creation still in the works?

+1 I currently use macester's plugin. It would be great to have native support.

S3 Sleep v3.0.5 is not working for me as well. In my case neither the buttons nor the sleep timer appears to be working correctly.

You can achieve similar functionality using the Dynamix S3 Sleep Plugin http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=36543.0 by calling a custom wakeup script from the plugin's pre-sleep actions.

After updating the Crashplan docker I can no longer connect to the web interface. The container logs now show the following messages being logged repeatedly every few seconds. Fatal server error: Could not create lock file in /tmp/.tX1-lock Openbox-Message: Failed to open the display from the DISPLAY environment variable. Any help would be appreciated.

You are looking for something along the lines of this, https://www.linux.com/learn/wake-linux-rtc-alarm-clock You can set an rtc alarm in the before sleep actions in the S3sleep plugin. That is assuming your hardware supports it.

You can execute commands before "sleep" is initiated, but once all conditions are met, you can not abort the sleep execution. If you don't want sleep to occur then make sure the conditions are set accordingly. Thanks for the answer bonienl. I was hoping to use a script in the before sleep command to add an additional condition to evaluate before sleep. Specifically I am trying to figure out how to prevent my server from sleeping if a TV program is scheduled to record within a certain time frame. Since aborting the sleep execution isn't possible I will have to rethink my approach. It would be interesting to a have a way add additional sleep conditions by evaluating a user provided script. Anyway thanks for all the great plugins!

Anyone?

Is it possible, in the S3 Sleep plugin, to have a before sleep command that would abort the sleep process?

I don't really know much about swap on linux or Btrfs but I ran across something that might be useful to you. It appears that you can use a loop mounted device as a swap file. It mentions that this option has poor performance but since i haven't tried it I can say if it is cripplingly poor. Anyway here is a link http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.btrfs/29437
