So it seems I found the root cause.

At least for me, the max. temp is only displaying when parity drive is active.

Today morning I started to spin up the drives one by one, and there were no max. temp displayed until at last I spun up parity as well.

 

In the meantime, I always checked the error console. There I was see the correct drive temps retrieving for all the drives ("*" for those, which spun down, and the proper temp, which is active), but in the last line there was "NaN" instead of the max. temp, until I spun driver parity as well.

I looked at the code, and found an array index off by 1... that is the root of the problem.

 

I'll upload a new FEMUR later today.

@olympia

 

New version of FEMUR just uploaded, that should fix the problem.  Link is in the OP.

 

I also made the messages written to the error/debug console more readable.

Yes, I can confim it's fixed by this version.

Thank you for your support!

Hi Bubba,

 

Thanks for your nice little utility

 

Is it correct it does not show drive temp of the cache-drive?

 

BR,

Søren

I don't have a cache drive in my test system, so I don't have a way to write/test code for getting the cache drive temp..... sorry.  Maybe in a future version.

One thing I noticed. When the plug-in is enabled in Firefox and I'm browsing a site, clicking on a picture, that pop-up in a new windows, it takes a few seconds before the new window pop-up. When I disable your plug-in, the window pop-up instantly.

I am working on that... it is a function of how fast your unRAID box replies to queries.  I'm trying to make the queries async.

I just uploaded a new version of FEMUR, that does the updating asynchronously, which should give it much snappier performance.

 

Link is in OP.

New version of FEMUR adds a couple of features:

 

- it puts the name of the server/IP on the status bar (I'm working on code for displaying info from multiple servers)

- if you click onthe server name/IP, it launches the unRAID UI.

Very nice.  This plugin is getting better and better with every release.

 

I like that the name of the tower is now were the unRaid label was and that when clicked on opens the web page.  I do kind of have one request.  Would it be possible to add a "fake" name that the label displays?  I ask because the server IP is the thing currently being displayed and i would prefer to label it as "tower" or "tower1" or something besides the IP

You can already do that... put an entry in your hosts file for the IP.... then use that name for your server name/IP in FEMUR.

@SørenBM, the latest version adds support for the temp of the cache drive, and it now pulls info from unRAID asynchronously, so you won't see that delay when opening new windows.

 

Let me know if it addresses the issue you reported.

Hey

 

Lazy me, just saw this post now. I'll give it a try. Thanks 

 

Have a nice weekend.

Hey guys,

 

Is it just me or do the drives not spin down when using BubbaRaid with FEMUR? or is it because FEMUR is monitoring temps?

 

thanks

thanks Joe,

 

I just tried leaving the server with no activity for over an hour. Then I used IE to check and the drives are still spun up. Don't think it's FEMUR, maybe BubbaRaid?

It's FEMUR, and it's due to the fact unRAID spindowns (prior to 4.4) are using the drive firmware, and a temp check will look like activity to the firmware.

 

unRAID 4.4 should take care of that problem.

Under unRaid 4.4 B2, FEMUR was working fine for me. Now that I updated to 4.4 Final, the max temp is no longer being displayed, only *. Does anybody else have this after updating?

4.4 is missing a library needed for the "smartctl" program to run.  FEMUR probably uses smartctl to get the disk temperatures.

See here:

Joe L.

Actually, FEMUR does not use smartctl to get disk temps... it uses the unRAID UI.

 

I'll look into it.

OK... new version of FEMUR is posted that works with both older unRAID 4.3 UI and the new UI in 4.4 (with links for the drives). See the link in the OP.

 

I also added the drive temps to the FEMUR widget even if the array is stopped or in any other state.

Added to UnRAID Add Ons, here.  Feel free to edit.

It's working again. Thank you for all the great work you're doing.
