Parity Accumulation not working

[jonye13]

I've set up 4 hours of accumulation duration for parity checks, once a month. But the system did all at once.

 

 

Same happened with a few people over reddit

You always have the option of using the Parity Check Tuning plugin instead to achieve this.  As well as working on all Unraid releases it provides significantly more functionality.

It looks like it paused after the scheduled 4 hours  Are you saying that it didn't?

 

But, as @itimpi stated, the parity check tuning plugin would be the preferred method of accomplishing this.

This was working without the plugin on my April parity check but some upgrade seems to have broken it.

 

Someone has already created a bug report here:

I've raised a bug report on our internal system for @bonienl to look at
