M1015 in IT mode drives detected as SCSI drives no spindown
Posted: 11 Jun 2013 09:21
by neptunus
I'm using two M1015 in IT mode with a lot of HDD's. One thing that still seems to be not working is that the drives are running through the M1015 they are detected as SCSI drives da0, da1, daX instead of ata drives, ata0, ata1, ataX. and it seems none of the controls for power reduction, spindown, idle, etc are working in nas4free.

ataidle: the device does not support power management
My conclusion is that no power functions through the M1015 are working. Camcontrol and/or ataidle, are only for AHCI/SATA controllers.
I would like it if it is possible to get my HDD's in spindown by using the web interface. But it seems that this only works for AHCI/SATA controllers and not for SCSI controllers. There is a tool to spindown SCSI HDD's in BSD:

Who to get my HDD's in spindown by using the web interface?

the freebsd lsi driver does not support the passthrough of the spindown commands from camcontrol.
there is a workaround with zfs however.
You got to run a script

Thanks, I will check the script. But still it would be very nice is there is a way to get is working from the webinterface in nas4free. I think a lot of people are using the M1015 in IT mode with nas4free.

your best bet would be to get in touch with the freebsd developers and get them to make changes in the lsi driver to support camcontrol spindown

I am having exactly the same problem and was just about to start a thread. Drives plugged into the motherboard SATA controller do spin down, but not on the M1015 in IT. I hope I can get this working as I need drive spin down and am really excited about this SAS card.

I'm going to give this a try when I get back from my trip at the end of the week. It would be nice to have spin down working through the GUI though. We'll see, I am a total noob to FreeBSD so the learning curve is still very steep for me

I have been researching this problem for three days straight and have put in tons of time. Is there instructions or information that a noob like me can use to lean how to install a script and have it restart again every time the NAS boots up. I know how to log on and navigate using SSH, and I know how to use vi, but I don't know where things are stored on FreeBSD or even where to start with adding a script.
Thanks in advance,
craigr

I had to try some of this before I left for my trip because I really want to solve this problem on my NAS. I think I am doing pretty well for a guy who doesn't know what he is doing.
I made a directory and file for my script:
/mnt/mount/hd_spindown.sh
I edited the hd_spindown.sh file with the script below.
Code: Select all
#!/bin/sh
#set -xv
#VERSION: 0.3.2
#MODIFIED: 17 Jun 2012
#AUTHOR: Milhouse
#
#DESCRIPTION: Created on FreeNAS 8.0.1-BETA4 with LSI 9211-8i HBA
# Tested on FreeNAS FreeNAS 8.0.2-RELEASE with LSI 9211-8i HBA
#
# This script will attempt to stop disks in a ZFS pool connected
# by a SAS HBA controller, using the camcontrol command. In effect,
# this is a poor mans ATAIDLE.
#
# The script is designed to run as a "daemon" process, running
# constantly from bootup. The idea is that it will consume standard
# input, which will itself be the output of "zpool iostat n" where n
# is a time interval, usually 60 (seconds).
#
# A count (--timeout) is specified as an argument for the script, and this
# quantity is decremented each time there is no iostat activity, and reset
# whenever there is iostat activity. When the count reaches zero, the disks
# will be stopped using "camcontrol stop" (unless the --test option is
# specified).
#
# The amount of time elapsed before disks are stopped is calculated as
# the product of the timeout and the value n specified for zpool iostat.
# For example, a timeout of 15 and an interval of 60 gives 15 * 60, or
# 900 seconds (ie. 15 minutes). The default timeout is 30.
#
# By default, disks will be stopped asynchronously (ie. simultaneously)
# however if this is a problem, specify the --sync option to stop disks
# in sequence, one after the other.
#
# If a system has multiple pools, run individual commands for each pool.
#
# If the script is unable to automatically detect disks/devices, specific
# devices can be specified using the --devices argument.
#
#CHANGELOG:
#
# 0.1.0: 2011-08-01 - Initial version
# 0.2.0: 2011-09-05 - Tweak CAMCONTROL detection
# 0.2.1: 2011-10-08 - Rewrite device detection to read devices from SQLITE db
# 0.2.2: 2011-11-11 - Log when new disc activity detected after a stop (disable with --nologstart)
# Simplify logging.
# 0.2.3: 2011-11-12 - Minor fix for logging.
# 0.3.0: 2012-06-04 - Add support for multiple pools and pool specific devices
# 0.3.1: 2012-06-05 - Minor coding style corrections, remove trailing comma from default pools
# 0.3.2: 2012-06-17 - Fix regression decoding devices and expansion of args
#
#
#USAGE:
# Execute the script with the -h or --help arguments.
#
#EXAMPLES:
# zpool iostat tank 60 | sh sasidle --timeout 15
# zpool iostat tank 60 | sh sasidle --timeout 15 --devices "/dev/da[2-3]"
# zpool iostat tank 60 | sh sasidle --timeout 15 --devices "tank:/dev/da[1-2] music:/dev/da[3-4]" --pool tank,music

The last output is not OKE.
From the man page of smartctl:
Code: Select all
-n POWERMODE, --nocheck=POWERMODE
[ATA only] Specifies if smartctl should exit before performing any checks when the device is in a low-power mode. It may be used to prevent a disk from being spun-up by smartctl. The power mode is ignored by default. A nonzero exit status is returned if the device is in one of the specified low-power modes (see RETURN VALUES below).
Note: If this option is used it may also be necessary to specify the device type with the '-d' option. Otherwise the device may spin up due to commands issued during device type autodetection.
The valid arguments to this option are:
never - check the device always, but print the power mode if '-i' is specified.
sleep - check the device unless it is in SLEEP mode.
standby - check the device unless it is in SLEEP or STANDBY mode. In these modes most disks are not spinning, so if you want to prevent a disk from spinning up, this is probably what you want.
idle - check the device unless it is in SLEEP, STANDBY or IDLE mode. In the IDLE state, most disks are still spinning, so this is probably not what you want.

EDIT: corrected now, 2013/06/11
Thanks for the help. I figured I needed a " someplace, but I had no idea where

Now the script runs, but it can't find a cf file for FreeNAS. Not surprised because I am not running FreeNAS, but I don't see it in the code anywhere... I'm trying the spindown daemon now instead as it seems a lot simpler that the script. We'll see how I do with that. I may come back to the script if things don't go well.
Kind regards,

spindown_enable="YES"
spindown_flags="-b -d da0 -d da1 -d da2 -d da3 -d da4 -d da5 -t 300"
Saved and exited and then verified by going into the web gui file editor to double check the settings were there.
Then in putty I typed to run the rc.conf file:
And got back to the prompt. My drives never spin down. Any idea why it's not working on my machine?
Also, if I tried:

Code: Select all
nas4free:~# cd /usr/ports/sysutils/spindown

Thanks again to all from this noob

Nice find on that spindown utility I will have to look into that. I too have been using the M1015 for a while now and I currently just made a script and cron job to spin them down nightly at 0130. I would like the after idle, but this was better than nothing. If you want here is the script I use
Code: Select all
#!/bin/sh
DISKS=`camcontrol devlist | grep 'WD30' | grep -Eo 'da[0-9]+'`
for X in $DISKS
do
camcontrol stop $X
done
I have multiple types of drives in my NAS so I first filter out all the WD30 which are the 3TB drives as those are the ones I want spundown. Anyways just save that as something.sh and modify the grep as needed and run it.

regarding smartctl deamon.
unfortunatly smartctl can not check the scsi stop command unlike the camcontrol spindown

English please.
Exit the shell en login again. Now at any location the command spindown will work.
Just for a test run: spindown -Db -i 10 -t 10-d da0 (where da0 is the SCSI disk)
After 20 seconds the status of the disk is running or in spindown is shown. Perhaps we can add a command option just to show the status of the disk(s).

smartctl -t short /dev/daX is working
smartctl -a /dev/daX is working
But with the version before 9.1.0.1 - Sandstorm (revision 775) it was also working. The problem is Disks|Management|S.M.A.R.T. >> Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology Probably the check:
Standby - Check the device unless it is in SLEEP or STANDBY mode. In these modes most disks are not spinning, so if you want to prevent a laptop disk from spinning up each poll, this is probably what you want.
is not working.
I'm still searching for a alternative to fix this.

Thanks for this little extra help. Sometimes things are not so obvious to a noob like me.
I installed the spindown package again and then through ssh entered and got back:
Code: Select all
nas4free:~# spindown -i 60 -t 300 -d da0 -d da1 -d da2 -d da3 -d da4 -d da5
Stopping device da0
Unit stopped successfully
Stopping device da1
Unit stopped successfully
Stopping device da2
Unit stopped successfully
Stopping device da3
Unit stopped successfully
Stopping device da4
Unit stopped successfully
Stopping device da5
Unit stopped successfully
I also verified that they were spun down by physically inspecting the drives and they were certainly not spinning
Now all I have to do is learn how to install the spindown package so that it doesn't get deleted when I reboot and then figure out the little bit of script... should be doable.
Thanks again,
craigr

spindown -b -i 60 -t 900 -d da0 -d da1 -d da2 -d da3 -d da4 -d da5

If I use:
Code: Select all
spindown -b -i 60 -t 10800 -d da0 -d da1 -d da2 -d da3 -d da4 -d da5
then the disk are spindown too fast. Still have to check how fast.
Are there people how see the same?

Three hours is a long time to wait for spindown. If you are noticing that the drives are spinning down too soon, maybe it's a bug. I would not be surprised if the spidown program only recognizes three or four digits for the timer. Try using 999 seconds or 9999 seconds instead of 10800 seconds. Your drives may be spinning down at the default time (which I think is 10 minutes, at 108 seconds, or at 1080 seconds.
I have always spun down my drives ever since I have been using zfs. I think the statement that:
also it wears out the hard drives faster while saving you some minor power usage
It's not a minor amount of power. If you have ten green drives this is 60+ watts of power when the drives are spinning (more with non-green and 7200rpm drives). This drops to 5 watts while the drives are idle. Reducing your full time load by 55 watts will add up to many dollars over a year and also wastes power for no reason. If you go hours without accessing your drives than spinning them down will make them last longer too, not shorter. You don't want your drives spinning up and down every hour, but you also don't want them to run for 12 hours for no reason at all.
I have 20 green drives in two pools and my power usage drops by 110 watts when the drives spin down.
I have never had to reboot my system after the drives have spun down. Never seen any errors from this.
