APM Disk inactivity not working.

[Birdy]

Hi,

Tested:

DS411+ii

DS413j

Both on DSM 4.2-3202

APM 2.3.5 and 2.3.4e

Just installed this (looks great) tool (first time) but seems not to work
for me.

I especially would use option:
Shutdown only on inactivity / Disk inactivity threshold in Megabytes per
interval.

Did some quick tests to see how it works but neither dis work for me.
Disk inactivity threshold in Megabytes per interval: 100
Measurement interval in minutes: 1

Disk inactivity threshold in Megabytes per interval: 10
Measurement interval in minutes: 1

Disk inactivity threshold in Megabytes per interval: 100
Measurement interval in minutes: 10

Maybe I don't understand what to fill in....then sorry for that.

Do you have the good tip ?

(I did not use Syno options in Control Panel > Hardware during tests.)

Thanks.

Disk inactivity threshold in Megabytes per interval: 100
Measurement interval in minutes: 10

means, shut down the DS (once in shut down phase, hence you should have reached the Power Off schedule first), if, other a 10 minute period (checking every minute), the disk activity (read or writes) is less than 100 MB.

Example: shut down programmed at 22:00
At 21:50, the tool will enter shut down phase and check disk activity.
Then every minute.
At 22:00, the tool will again check disk activity.
If disk activity < 100 MB between 21:50 and 22:00, it will shut down
Otherwise, it will recheck at 22:01 (with 21:51 as the disk activity reference)
