March 12, 20242 yr Hey, I try to turn on/off Fastwrite with a cronjob depending on time. Unfortunately if i type the command "mdcmd set md_write_method 0" or "mdcmd set md_write_method 1" nothing changes. So in the GUI the setting "Tunable (md_write_method)" stays on what it was before. On dmesg I can see that the command does apply tho. How can I enable/disable fastwrite with a command?

March 12, 20242 yr The CA Auto Turbo Write Mode plugin is there for this precise purpose, no need to roll your own. Edited March 12, 20242 yr by Kilrah

August 28, 20241 yr I also want to do it by cli, because I want to do it when running specific command, and not depending on time. Any body has pointers, because the cli command definitely seems to not work, and to stay in the current mode if I look at how write are happening.
