[Feature Request] Beep on system boot or First Array Start

Featured Replies

Posted

When rebooting the server it beeps as it starts shutdown, but how about another beep to let me know it is up and running again. I know some people won't be able to hear it, but for those of us that can, it would be a nice feature especially for headless servers. Or in my case, a server in a closet behind me, with the door closed, and the monitor in sleep mode.

 

Thank you for your consideration.

Thank you for your consideration.

Add the following to your go file (/boot/config/go) at the end

 

beep

(On my servers, I do 3 of them)

outstanding! thanks [slaps forehead]

 

Still though, might be nice for that to be build in to avoid GO editing.

A more cheerful one:

There are lots of these on the forum and around the net. You could put several beep scripts on your flash with different names and change go to run whichever you wanted, or probably even script a random choice.

awe man, my server doesn't beep  :'( Now that I think about it, my motherboard didn't come with the little speaker.

Sure would love to have usb audio support and play sound bites at strategic times!

I will never hear the tiny beeps anyway, so any audio would be good. Probably have to fire up a VM just for this. :o
