Thanks. Didn't know about that one. Installed that. Processes frequently using disk seem to be: jbd2/dm-0-8 dhcpd -q kworker/0:0 kworker/0:3 jbd2 is of course the journaling process for my RAIDs. But who's I/O is it journalling? dhcpd -- whi does it have to read disk every second? connctions aren't being made that oftern, are they? And what are the kworkers all about? Somthing kde-ish? I only occasionally use any kind of graphicl interface, and when I do it's over X to screen on another machine. Not doing that now. Or is it k for kernel? -- hendrik > > On Sun, 2018-07-01 at 21:25 -0400, Hendrik Boom wrote: > > After upgrading my server to Ascii (which I did successfully using the > > instructions in > > https://devuan.org/os/documentation/dev1fanboy/upgrade-to-ascii although > > it did not go flawlessly I noticed that it was making a regular, > > repeated click-click noise, a pair of clicks about every 1.1 second. > > > > Later, I noticed its hard-disk-in-use light blinking at the same time as > > the noise. > > > > I conclude that something in the system is using the hard drive every > > 1.1 seconds, night and day. > > > > Any ideas for tracking down what is doing this? > > > > -- hendrik > > > > _______________________________________________ > > Dng mailing list > > [email protected] > > https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng > > _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list [email protected] https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
