OMV Drives not spinning down after latest update

  • Version 7.7.2-1 (Sandworm)

    Kernel - Linux 6.12.12+bpo-amd64


    OMV is running as a VM on Proxmox.

    I added an SSD to my homelab and before I did that, I ran apt-get update and apt-get upgrade on the container. I added the SSD, formatted to EXT-4 and after I booted the system up, neither drives respect the spindown times. OMV has control of the SATA controller passed through as a PCI device from Proxmox.


    It appears that the spinning disk does not respect the smartctl standby command -


    Code
    smartctl -s standby,now  /dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST16000NM001G-2KK103_ZL2F6F4H
    smartctl 7.3 2022-02-28 r5338 [x86_64-linux-6.12.12+bpo-amd64] (local build)

    Device placed in STANDBY mode

    The device says its in standby but checking it immediately after still shows the device in active/idle state

    Code
    hdparm -C /dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST16000NM001G-2KK103_ZL2F6F4H
    
    /dev/disk/by-id/ata-ST16000NM001G-2KK103_ZL2F6F4H:
     drive state is:  active/idle

    It seems like something is accessing the drive but `fatrace` hasn't shown anything accessing the drive.


    I installed the diskstats plugin and I can see a constant 400 byte/second write to the disk. I can't seem to figure out what it is


    Attached the image with the disk i/o stats


    Everything worked fine before I performed the update yesterday and added the SSD. I am not sure if one of those two things may be causing the drive to not spin down.


    Any troubleshooting steps would be highly appreciated.


    Thank you!
