Recommended Power Management

  • Hello,


    I recently reinstalled OMV from 4 to 7. Since then, I have been working on optimizing my NAS.


    Due to the high electricity costs in Germany, I want to avoid having the NAS running 24/7. In addition, I only really need it when I want to watch a movie via Infuse/Plex of my Plex Media Server or upload new movies/series on the data drives.


    Is there a recommended and simple solution to keep the NAS on standby for access without always having to switch it on or off manually by hand?

  • I am using the plugin "openmediavault-autoshutdown" to force the system to suspend.

    And welweb for the WOL command. It´s integrated in some webpages on my local net and as an app on my FireTV.


    So, when I want to watch a movie I run the wolweb app on FireTV, wake up my NAS and seconds later Jellyfin is up and I can start watching.
