** Description changed: I am unable to get the DiskMonitor to work on my server. Powernap still wants to suspend when the disks are spinning. Steps to reproduce: 1. sudo apt-get -y install powernap 2. sudo hdparm -S 60 /dev/sda (Sets spindown to 5 minutes for drive sda) - 3. After 10 minutes: sudo hdparm -C /dev/sda Check if spindown is working + 3. After 5 minutes: sudo hdparm -C /dev/sda Check if spindown is working 2. sudo hdparm -S 251 /dev/sda (Sets spindown to 5,5 hours) 4. sudo apt-get install -y powernap 5. add this to the [DiskMonitor] section of /etc/powernap/config: sda = y 6. sudo service powernap restart Expected behaviour: Powernap should not take any powersaving actions while the configured harddrive keeps spinning. Encountered behaviour: Powernap takes powersaving actions while the harddrive is still spinning. --- ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu17.1 Architecture: amd64 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 InstallationMedia: Ubuntu-Server 12.04 LTS "Precise Pangolin" - Release amd64 (20120424.1) MarkForUpload: True Package: powernap 2.17-0ubuntu2 PackageArchitecture: all ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=nl_NL.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-38.61-generic 3.2.37 Tags: precise Uname: Linux 3.2.0-38-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo modified.conffile..etc.powernap.action: [modified] mtime.conffile..etc.powernap.action: 2013-02-22T12:13:28.452595 mtime.conffile..etc.powernap.config: 2013-02-22T13:10:37.516469
