Several people are using the S3 standby plugin. The plugin performs some checks to evaluate if it can issue the S3 standby command. Do you think you can use that work to implement the "pause parity" feature in such a way, as to run automatically when the server is running idle? e.g. if there is "low activity" on the NIC or if the "running hours" is the only condition that is blocking the S3 sleep. (Probably need both to be able to stop the check when NIC load goes up again) This would be a very useful feature. I am afraid that certainly will not make my initial release. That is concentrating on you providing a start-stop time for running parity check increments. It is something that can be considered as a 'wishlist' item to look into when the base functionality is working well. However any development will be hindered by the fact that my Unraid server does not support S3 sleep so testing will be difficult. Quote Link to comment
eek Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 A minor issue (one I can live with if it's impossible to fix) is that the duration is reset to zero when you restart / unpause a check. This means you end up with speeds like the one attached - I was in a meeting otherwise I would have paused and restarted with a minute to go to really demonstrate the issue. Quote Link to comment

It has been a while since i used the S3 sleep plugin, but I vaguely remember a debug mode where it would do all the decision making and output to the log but not actually execute a sleep command at the end. If not I am sure the sleep script could be modified to make that happen. Quote Link to comment

I have added this to the Wish List section of the opening post in the forum Support thread for this plugin. Whether this will prove to be practical for this plugin I do no know. 1 Quote Link to comment
