I'm already using a bat file for powering down and it works fine. It has the following code:

plink.exe  -ssh  -pw  yourpassword  root@yourIP  powerdown

How to do the same to send a suspend/sleep command?

 

Windows 10 and Unraid 6.6.2

Bump

Surprised by the silence in this forum with so knowledgeable people. Although I've already searched about this around the internet and couldn't find any clear info. Perhaps it is just not possible (yet)?

Try this one instead of the "powerdown"

echo -n mem > /sys/power/state

If it's not working, use it to search this forum and you'll find a couple of answers.

Yes it's working when I type in a local terminal but how to send it through a batch file from Windows? I tried with plink and it doesn't work, but maybe the syntax is incorrect:

plink.exe  -ssh  -pw  yourpassword  root@yourIP  echo -n mem > /sys/power/state

Maybe something like

plink.exe  -ssh  -pw  yourpassword  root@yourIP  "echo -n mem > /sys/power/state"

You have to ensure that the whole expression is parsed.

 

Edit:

Another possibility is pasting the expression into a file, making it +x and calling the file with plink.

Thanks it works, both ways.

Nice!
By the way, do you know the s3sleep plugin?

Yes I'm using it for automatic suspension after a specific amount of array inactivity. But I also like to be able to do it manually with a single double click. I don't like the fact that the root password is exposed like that in the Bat file (of course it's just in a home environment).

It is possible to work with public/private keys.

Of course, setting up is a bit of work. I'm sure there are also some how-to's in this forum.
