July 11, 201114 yr Skank I have no idea what plink is. Did you read the documents for it or look up any examples? You likely have to just answer yes and carry on. I believe you had a script or something running on that media player you are using (I don't recall the details and really don't care) which would do the same as pressing the sleep button on the unMENU interface. But, you complained that the sleep button didn't work right because your player was hanging up. So, try editing the script for the sleep button and using the line Joe gave you instead of what's there now. I thought this was suggested in the other thread where you were asking for it. I'm pretty sure the script is in the unmenu folder on the flash drive. The name should be fairly obvious. Be careful when editing the script to use unix EOF and not DOS ones. Try telneting to the server and type mc to use Midnight Commander to access the server files and do the editing. I hate to tell you, but people here (or anywhere for that matter) generally don't want to do the work for you when it appears you won't put in any effort yourself. I think your problem of not seeming to get help stems from that fact you were told what to change but it appears you never followed up on it or tried to change it. If you'd come back after making an effort with a question about what you had tried I'm sure you would have got more help. Peter

Peter well i didnt want to press yes, cause i was afraid to harm something, thatswhy i asked first. about the sleep script.. yes i didnt go further, cause using the sleep button on unmenu, does make it go to sleep.. however, the internet explorer hangs cause its waiting for unraid to give a signal back and it doesnt, thatswhy the mediaplayer does the same thing.. You talk about the line Joe gave, but where is that? Maybe i overlooked.. Well i want to try to solve it, im going to take a look tomorrow to edit the script, if i can find it use unix EOF and not dos ones? what do you mean, i know nothing about linux i'll see if i can edit the files, i dunno how but i'll use mc and see and yes, i just have a dsf file on the usb stick in the dune That dsf file (which does exactly the same as the sleep unmenu button) i run from the dune so it goes to sleep So in other words, i give the guy from mpcclub the command i run from my pc to make unraid go to sleep, and he makes it as a dsf file which i can run from the dune So i'm looking a way to do this from the pc (without having the explorer hanging..) so the dune wont hang either edit: on a post from Joe L, in previous page, he says echo "echo 3 >/proc/acpi/sleep" | at now + 1 minute might try if that solves anything but ill try editing script tomorrow and do some searching
July 12, 201114 yr Edit it , with editpad lite it still hangs... it looks like this now #define USER_SCRIPT_LABEL S3 Sleep #define USER_SCRIPT_DESCR Put the server to S3 Sleep #UNMENU_RELEASE $Revision: 58 $ $Date: 2010-04-17 09:13:05 -0400 (Sat, 17 Apr 2010) $ # by using a USER_SCRIPT_TEST this button # will not show itself unless S3 is supported in /proc/acpi/sleep # the button label will be that printed by the "awk" command #define USER_SCRIPT_TEST cat /proc/acpi/sleep | grep "S3" | awk '{ print "Go to S3 Sleep" }' echo "<pre>" # pre-sleep, sync the disks echo "Syncing disks" /bin/sync # go to sleep echo 3 > /proc/acpi/sleep | at now + 1 minute echo "Awaking from sleep" # Do post-sleep activities, reset wake-on-lan ethtool -s eth0 speed 1000 ethtool -s eth0 wol g

You need to add the line as I gave in my example. echo "echo 3 >/proc/acpi/sleep" | at now + 1 minute not as you added it echo 3 > /proc/acpi/sleep | at now + 1 minute
July 12, 201114 yr ok i'll change it exactly as you say, see if that helps edit: it worked ! woehoe thx mate ! The dune doesnt hang anymore either.. running http://192.168.xxx.xxx:8080/user_scripts?command=Go+to+S3+Sleep makes it go to sleep now and bringing me to this: it doesnt crash.. so i got what i want now Just hoping putting to sleep is safe for fire.. and doesnt use much more power than completely shut it down
July 12, 201114 yr Told ya, as soon as you tried to get it working and then posted what you unsuccessfully tried that you'd get help. Peter
August 10, 201114 yr Hi, I am stucked witch ACPI S3 on Beta 5.10. (browsed now for hours the forum) I have understood that echo -n 3 > /proc/acpi/sleep is not working anymore in 5.xx s2ram is not working starting beta4 as commented by Joe L. Both packages are not available in unmeu 1.5 anymore echo -n mem >/sys/power/state stops the server working My mo-board is supporting S3 (by logfile). So: what is the actual method to set the server in S3 in 5.10b mode? If any tools needed, where to get them? Thanks for support
August 10, 201114 yr For some year ago I have issue with sleep, then I found some solutions, I added this in my syslinux.cfg, and I have not get any problem since then. label unRAID OS menu default kernel bzimage append initrd=bzroot acpi_sleep=s3_bios Peter
August 10, 201114 yr Hi! For some year ago I have issue with sleep, then I found some solutions, I added this in my syslinux.cfg, and I have not get any problem since then. label unRAID OS menu default kernel bzimage append initrd=bzroot acpi_sleep=s3_bios Peter Is there any further explantion to get S3 working on an unRAID-Server (beta10)? I activated S3 on my Supermicro-Board. "ethtool" shows this: == Cut === Supported ports: [ TP ] Supported link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full 1000baseT/Full Supports auto-negotiation: Yes Advertised link modes: 10baseT/Half 10baseT/Full 100baseT/Half 100baseT/Full 1000baseT/Full Advertised pause frame use: Symmetric Receive-only Advertised auto-negotiation: Yes Speed: 1000Mb/s Duplex: Full Port: Twisted Pair PHYAD: 0 Transceiver: internal Auto-negotiation: on MDI-X: Unknown Supports Wake-on: pumbg Wake-on: g Current message level: 0x00000033 (51) Link detected: yes === Cut === My idea is to send the server to sleep automatically, when there is no traffic to the IP of the unRAID-Server for a certain time (e.g. 2 hours). When I try to access the system the array should start automatically again. Is there any tutorial in which is described who to do this? Or is this even possible? Bye.

That's not how wake-on-lan works. You need to send a special wake-up packet. And, it has to be listening for it. Joe L.

It works for me. I am running Beta 5.10. You should be able to find a way to hook into this function. Reed
August 11, 201114 yr I found something yesterday night: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Acpid echo -n mem > /sys/power/state seems somehow to stop the server. It stopped responding, but lights did not switch off. I was not able verify yesterday if the server died or went to S3, as WOL was not working. But this seems to be a MoBo issue with my asus a7n8. Will report further results next days.

(PSU, CPU Fan still running, Lan Down, No wakeup on WOL, no Wakeup on Power button) Meanwile I got WOL working, but S3 is still not working .. :-(

September 20, 201114 yr You have carriage returns at the ends of lines. You need to edit with an editor that does not add carriage returns. + timeout=$'15\r' + count=$'15\r'
October 5, 201114 yr Is there a new way to SLEEP (S3) V. 5.0xx ? Is there a new way to "klick" the "Sleep" button (simple features) from a script? Has anyone an idea to put this url: "/plugins/simpleFeatures/include/commands.php", data: "com=sleep", success: function(data) in a working script?
October 5, 201114 yr Yes, there is a new way to sleep with the newer Linux Kernels. You need to change your scripts or addons appropriately.
October 5, 201114 yr You may want to try the modified Simple Features package. I have added a GUI front-end for S3 sleep. See http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=12698.345
January 6, 201214 yr @bonienl, I discovered your very nice addition to the Simple Features plugin. Thanks for the hint. I was already looking quite a while for a way to send the server to sleep when no one needs it (PCs, Macs, HDTVs etc.) When I'm trying to activate the S3 sleep function, the pulldown menu is going back to "disabled" right after I'm pressing the apply button. Syslog is showing: Jan 6 11:59:13 Tower s3_sleep: killing s3_sleep process 8040 (Minor Issues) Jan 6 11:59:13 Tower s3_sleep: s3_sleep process ID 11658 started, To terminate it, type: s3_sleep -q Here is the important part of the go script: # Simple Features Plugin installpkg /boot/packages/simpleFeatures-0.9f.tgz /usr/sbin/s3_sleep -a -R -F -m 30 Any idea what I did wrong?
January 7, 201214 yr The GUI saves the settings in the background in the file ultra.ini located in the directory /var/local/emhttp. This file needs to be writable: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 689 2012-01-07 03:01 ultra.ini Can you check your permissions?
January 7, 201214 yr That is exactly the same status of my file: 23429 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 597 Jan 7 16:45 ultra.ini
January 7, 201214 yr Have you installed 'another' PHP package or are you using the stock PHP implementation?
January 8, 201214 yr Hmm, not to my knowledge. The PHP package is not installed via unMenu. By the way, the Scheduler can't be applied either.
