The NAS is working well with fvdw-sl 15-2, however neither the power led nor the fan are changeable. the "Power LED on" and off buttons in the web-interface do nothing, and neither does echoing fanon, fanoff, pledon, pledoff, blinkon, or blinkoff to /proc/resource_dump.
No those buttons don't work for 5big2 (read the help text), also echoing these words to /proc/resource_dump has no effect on the 5big2
There is a way to control the leds but that is not yet integrated in the firmware as it is let say a cosmetic feature, I will post it tonight when being at home
The fan is still off, and the drives are heading up to 41 degrees :?
Is there anything I can do to test things here? I know when I was trying to use the old LaCie firmware that there was an executable that could turn the power LED on and off (and I've found "fan_controller" in /usr/sbin of sda8).
There is a fan daemon active that will start te fan when disk temp reach 45 oC. It is speed controlled so starting slow.
I have a 5big2 myself and I tested it, it works. ;)
The webinterface will display a warning in the disk menu when the fan daemon is not active.
With using the command to list the running processes
- Code: Select all
ps -ef | grep fan
you should get a line output with fan-d, this is the fan daemon
ps: /usr/sbin doesn't exist on sda8
