Hi,

the cause of the problem is the value entered in the file "/sys/power/resume". This value refers to the original partition created during the OMV installation. I created a new swap partition on an other device and entered the value (which can be determined with "lsblk -o NAME,MAJ:MIN") into /sys/power/resume. After that, "systemctl hibernate" worked. After a restart, the value is reset again. You can add this to the grub.cfg file (GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash resume=UUID=..."), and the corrected value will be applied.

However, hibernate mode is not an alternative to suspend. Booting after waking up takes just as long as after shutting down. Since the processes don't necessarily need to be restored to their original state, this doesn't really help.

Hi,

after more than ten years, it was time to upgrade my server's hardware. The transition went quite well, actually. All services are working perfectly. However, there are still two problems I haven't been able to solve.

One of the issue is that the hardware isn't going into suspend mode. OMV/Linux, however, goes into standby and can be woken up again via WOL or the power button. It's definitely a hardware problem. I've tried various BIOS setups (there are only two settings for the ACPI configuration) without success.

Before I start debugging this extensively, I wanted to try hibernation mode. However, that doesn't work either. I get an error message saying there isn't enough swap space. Apparently, the system is ignoring the 24GB swap file that I created and enabled. I suspect that the system is still trying to swap to the 1GB swap partition. Is there any way to get OMV/Linux to use the swap file for hibernation, or do I need to extend the existing swap partition?

Thank You in advance.

Hi folks,
I want to set the wakeup time using rtcwake but something gets wrong with the conversion to linux timestamp.
System and hardware clock settings are correct, but if I use utc time for rtcwake the result of the date conversion is two hours too early, with option -l the result is two hours too late:

root@HURRICANE:~# date
Mi 10. Jun 00:40:59 CEST 2015
root@HURRICANE:~# hwclock
Mi 10 Jun 2015 00:41:05 CEST -0.489285 seconds
root@HURRICANE:~# rtcwake -n -m mem -t $(date -d '20150610 02:15' +%s) -l
rtcwake: wakeup from "mem" using /dev/rtc0 at Wed Jun 10 04:15:00 2015
root@HURRICANE:~# rtcwake -n -m mem -t $(date -d '20150610 02:15' +%s) -u
rtcwake: wakeup from "mem" using /dev/rtc0 at Wed Jun 10 00:15:00 2015

Can somebody explain that?

btw: Is it possible that if a wake alarm time is initiated, the omv service autoshutdown don't work properly any more?
Thx, Q.

Oh, cool! That's what I'm looking for. Thank You.

Hi all,
I'm a brandnew member here and this is my very first question about OMV.
Is there a mail client will be installed with omv and can I use it from the bash? I want simply send me a mail from a shell script with the output of the snapraid diff and sync.
Is it possible or I have to use another mail client like mutt?
Thanx in advance
