Hey guys,
I'm using a Raspberry Pi 4 (4GB) with OMV 4.1.34-1
I have a Seagate Expansion 2,5" HDD connected via USB 3.0
After setting up a file system and copying the files back on the HDD (from my Windows PC), the system worked a few days.
Now the Pi disappears randomly in my network, especially when I try to copy files on the HDD.
The Control Panel does not show the device anymore and at file system the status is "missing".
Does anybody know what the problem is?
p.s.: sorry for my English 
Maybe you should point out the specific topic you are interested in.
How to wake up my Raspberry Pi 4 via LAN. I Have a 2,5" Disk setup as a NAS and i'm trying to wake the Pi up if I want to reach it via Windows or my TV
Searching the web I only found out how to setup the Pi as a server for WoL (eg. starting my PC with it)
push 
im also interested in the topic
... Another problem now..
The hdd spins down even if im copying or using a file.
Maybe this drive is just not made for Linux
thanks for your hekp Adoby
apperently the spindown does work now after using the Seagate Tool
I dont know why it did not work yesterday...I did not change any settings but today the drive spins down xD
thank you all for your help
Oh and I noticed something while plugging the storage to my PC:
The LED was glowing steady, at the Pi it does blink...does anyone know what this means?
I've had a similar issue with a Seagate 2,5"BackupPlus 5TB disk. Turned out I had to 'enable' spindown, including timeout @ drive level using one of these tools (can't exactly remember which one):
- Seagate Dashboard: https://www.seagate.com/support/software/dashboard/
- SeaTools: https://www.seagate.com/support/downloads/seatools/
Since then, it does spindown in a reliable way on both an Odroid and OrangePi board running OMV4.x
Thats funny, Ive found a similar software, but it only worked on Windows 7.
I set the spindown timer to 5 minutes and apperently it does work on my PC but not with omv.. did you set the spindown on omv or did you left anything deactivated?
How do you run this tools on the OMV?
You dont, its for Windows
I justed typed in "nano spindown.sh" 
got it starting by "bash spindown.sh"
my output:
root@Pi:~# bash spindown.sh
Putting the disk sda into standby...

it does this 7 times, then im back to root@Pi
ok so i named it spindown.sh now
when i follow your guide on how to run a script, the first 2 options dont do anything and after that its all
"Could not find the database of available applications, run update-command-not-found as root to fix this"
again
Sorry to bother you but I dont get it..
Ah nano is an editor..
Got your code in there, but what do i enter after pressing save? some directory?
Ok can you please tell me where to look at the pdf?
I used putty before but it dont know how to use nano
cant even figure out how to start?
what do i have to do? I have to enter the scripts name. Soo do I have to save your post and upload it to the omv or what?^^
Run: find_culprit <drive>
Example: find_culprit sdc
(/dev/sdc is my spin disk)
dummy question here:
how do I run this script?
entering it on the omv console at my pi 4 only shows "Could not find the database of available applications, run update-command-not-found as root to fix this"
I'm new to this (windows user)
Hey guys,
After successfully setting up my Raspberry Pi 4B with OMV 4 I cant get my external HDD to spindown with Advanced Power Management..
I'vre tried different setting on the OMV GUI, with different combinations
I followed the guide for hd-idle (https://www.libe.net/omv-hd-idle) it still does not work.
Most topics reguarding the topic on this forum are not related to USB drives, if I'm not wrong.
Is there a known issue with USB drives? How do I setup spindown correctly?
The external drive is a seagate expansion portable 4tb
I'm a little worried about running the drive 24/7
thanks again finally got a working NAS now 
Got it know
After formating the hdd via OMV I plugged it at my Windows PC and used a program for "linux file systems" from paragon to check and format it again...
Is it somehow possible to delete shared folders which cant be found?
Before having my HDD I tested the whole thing with my USB Stick.. and apperently I can only delete shared folders IF they are "plugged in"
still getting the exact same error 
Yes, it was before. But thats why I used OMV to wipe it and create a ext4 file system?
Okay that helped! Finally got a filesystem created.
Now I'm getting this error while trying to mount the HDD:
Failed to execute command 'export PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin; export LANG=C.UTF-8; mount -v --source '/dev/disk/by-label/Datengrab' 2>&1' with exit code '12': modprobe: ERROR: ../libkmod/libkmod.c:586 kmod_search_moddep() could not open moddep file '/lib/modules/4.19.50-v7l+/modules.dep.bin' modprobe: FATAL: Module fuse not found in directory /lib/modules/4.19.50-v7l+ NTFS signature is missing. Failed to mount '/dev/sda1': Invalid argument The device '/dev/sda1' doesn't seem to have a valid NTFS. Maybe the wrong device is used? Or the whole disk instead of a partition (e.g. /dev/sda, not /dev/sda1)? Or the other way around?
