Woodpusherghd Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 My disks are constantly spun up. Possible culprits: (1) I am running CrashPlan inn a docker with 3 PCs backing up to my server and the server backing up to Crashplan's cloud; (2) I'm running a Ubuntu VM with scheduled backups of a mysql database and daily cron jobs backing up Newznab files via rsync. Any thoughts on determining what's keeping the disk spun up? Quote Link to comment
Frank1940 Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 My snide comment would be--- Why won't your disks always be active? But a bit more serious, I would tend to suspect that the backup to the cloud would be the prime suspect since upload speeds are usually just a fraction of the download speeds. You could try suspending/stopping each of these and see what happens. Quote Link to comment
RobJ Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 There is also a new File Activity plugin, designed to help with this problem. Quote Link to comment
