Another "Disk never spinning down" issues

Featured Replies

Posted

Hi,

I got my main disk1 (+parity disks) always spinning up.

 

If I manually spin them down, they are up again in less then 5 minutes.

 

I got 6.9.2, 2 HDD drive, 2 HDD parity and 2 cache SSD

 

I search and I try:

  • downgrade to 6.9.1 (according to 692-parity-drive-will-not-spin-down-via-gui-or-schedule-r1409/ )
  • upgrade to 6.9.10-rc1 (according to this: 97351-plugin-spin-down-sas-drives/page/11/ )
  • check file active with dlandon's "File Activity", but only cache is used
  • file open plugin, show notting: 41196-open-files-plugin-can-help-with-troubleshooting-why-server-wont-shut-down/ (also kill everything)
  • I got all Docker stopped, all VM stopped and the VPN plugin turned off
  • Settings / Disk settings / Default spin down delay: 15 minutes

 

what can I do?

 

Thanks in advance

Are you using the cache dirs plugin?

You don't have to, but it might help depending in what's going on in your system.  Be sure to set it up for the specific directories to cache.  Don't leave it at the default, it will cache too much.

unfortunately it seems not to be enough

 

I Enabled, try different pressure (now is on 1) and try to include all my cache-only folders + all my cache-prefer folders

 

I made some try this night, but not much is changed, it's just longer the time (before every 5 minutes, now every 10)
