October 9, 201312 yr I was wondering if when I shutdown the array, do sickbeard, couchpotato, and sab also shutdown? If not what happens when I reboot, do they get abruptly terminated or do they have a graceful shutdown? Thx for any assistance.
October 9, 201312 yr If you reboot either with the powerdown add-on script or from the unraid web GUI the plugin catches the unmount event from unraid and sends the termination signal to the app, which tells the process to shutdown. If that doesn't work the plugin sends a sigkill which uncleanly terminates the process. Note it only does this if the original termination fails. Sab is slightly different in that the plugin sends a signal to sabs API to signal a shutdown, if that fails the termination signal and finally the sigkill. I'm thinking of rewriting Sickbeard to do the same since the API is more fleshed out now... Id have to check if couchpotato has an API signal for shutdown. So in short, rebooting or taking the array offline will cause the plugin to try and cleanly shutdown the app and as a fallback will force kill the process.
