Subject: [storage-discuss] HDD power management in OSOL 2008.11
To: [email protected]


> I've been testing (Open)Solaris ever since SXCE build 78, and I'm 
> currently running SXCE b101 on my NAS/server.
> In order to reduce power consumption, I built my rig using low-power 
> components (Athlon X2 BE cpu, 2.5" boot disks, etc.).
> I also spin down the 10 hard disks (mirrored boot disks + 8x500GB 
> RAIDZ1 data array) after 1h inactivity.
> Now, I would like to upgrade to OSOL 2008.11 for its better 
> consistency, IPS and so on, but there is one caveat:
> on SXCE I can use dtpower to control power management, but the tool 
> isn't available in OSOL, probably because (if I'm correct) it belongs 
> to the CDE desktop. The Gnome power tool doesn't allow me to spin HDDs 
> down.
> Is there any similar tool available in OSOL (or in the open source 
> world), or have I no chance but to manually edit /etc/power.conf?
