    Strange, this is my output

    How to install xpenology on an old Netgear RNDU 4000

    Hello gwd 1963

     

    Great job, running on Readynas Ultra 2. Only thing I can't get fixed is going down at 23:00 and up at 09:00. Nas is gowing down at 23:00 allright but not starting at 09:00. When I tried that on an old PC it is working alright. Any ideas on that? Maybe something in the bios of the Ultra 2?

     

    I did not try the timer function, my guess is that it does not go into a sleep mode but really shuts down. I will look into it, because I also want this (or WOL) because I will be using the Netgear as a backup NAS.

     

    Regards... Gerwin

    now you have a name, instead off some characters... :wink:

    Hi,

     

    I'm new, and a real Linux noob, but after reading the complete thread carefully and trying over and over again i have found the correct way to control the fans on boot. I have tested it more than once on my "spare" ReadyNAS Pro 4.

     

    Make sure you have setup your NAS and that it is working. After that enable SSH and login with ie Putty. Issue the following commands in the correct order

     

    mkdir /volume1/@tmp
cd /volume1/@tmp
wget http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/syno-i686/cross/unstable/syno-i686-bootstrap_1.2-7_i686.xsh
chmod +x syno-i686-bootstrap_1.2-7_i686.xsh
sh syno-i686-bootstrap_1.2-7_i686.xsh
ipkg update
ipkg upgrade
ipkg install perl
ipkg install bash
ipkg install mktemp
ipkg install lm-sensors

     

    Than edit the file .profile located in /root as shown below (PATH is extended and at the bottom a code is added to boot into bash)

     

    umask 022

PATH=/opt/bin:/opt/sbin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/syno/sbin:/usr/syno/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin
export PATH

#This fixes the backspace when telnetting in.
#if [ "$TERM" != "linux" ]; then
#        stty erase
#fi

HOME=/root
export HOME

TERM=${TERM:-cons25}
export TERM

PAGER=more
export PAGER

PS1="`hostname`> "

alias dir="ls -al"
alias ll="ls -la"

if [[ -x /opt/bin/bash ]]; then
exec /opt/bin/bash
fi

     

    Now create a startup script S99fancontrol.sh in /usr/syno/etc/rc.d/ containing the following code

     

    #!/opt/bin/bash

# Use the same head in fancontrol script
#
# S99fancontrol.sh - startup script for fancontrol
#
# This goes in /usr/syno/etc/rc.d and gets run at boot-time.

FANCONTROL=/opt/sbin/fancontrol


case "$1" in

start)
       if [ -x "$FANCONTROL" ] ; then
               echo "start fancontrol"
               $FANCONTROL &
       fi
       ;;

stop)
       echo "stop fancontrol"
       kill -TERM `cat /var/run/fancontrol.pid` > /dev/null 2>&1
       logger -p daemon.error "$0 stop fancontrol"
       sleep 1
       ;;

*)
       echo "usage: $0 { start | stop }" >&2
       exit 1
       ;;

esac

     

    Set permissions to 755 with

     

    chmod 755 /usr/syno/etc/rc.d/S99fancontrol.sh

     

    Now test your sensors with

     

    sensors

     

    It will give an output similar to the code below

     

    coretemp-isa-0000
Adapter: ISA adapter
Core 0:       +37.0°C  (crit = +100.0°C)

it8721-isa-0a10
Adapter: ISA adapter
in0:          +3.06 V  (min =  +2.20 V, max =  +3.06 V)  ALARM
in1:          +2.86 V  (min =  +0.00 V, max =  +2.08 V)  ALARM
in2:          +2.22 V  (min =  +2.12 V, max =  +1.42 V)  ALARM
+3.3V:        +3.34 V  (min =  +2.69 V, max =  +4.01 V)
in4:          +2.76 V  (min =  +2.05 V, max =  +1.91 V)  ALARM
in5:          +1.16 V  (min =  +1.46 V, max =  +1.40 V)  ALARM
in6:          +2.80 V  (min =  +0.08 V, max =  +1.52 V)  ALARM
3VSB:         +3.29 V  (min =  +5.93 V, max =  +6.05 V)  ALARM
Vbat:         +3.31 V
fan1:        2033 RPM  (min =   10 RPM)
fan2:           0 RPM  (min =   14 RPM)  ALARM
temp1:        +49.0°C  (low  = +112.0°C, high =  -5.0°C)  ALARM  sensor = thermal diode
temp2:        +33.0°C  (low  = -53.0°C, high = +61.0°C)  sensor = thermal diode
temp3:       -128.0°C  (low  = +79.0°C, high =  -7.0°C)  sensor = disabled
intrusion0:  ALARM

     

    If everything is ok we have to build the default config files

     

    sensors -s

     

    Now we are ready to build /etc/fancontrol

     

    bash pwmconfig

     

    Follow the steps, but in general you can use the following as a guide

     

    • Select 1) hwmon/device/pwm1
    • Select 4) hwmon/device/temp2_input
    • Low temperature is default at 20
    • High temperature is default at 60
    • Minimum PWM value is 8 (check this, it is tested before)
    • Minimum PWM value when fan starts spinning is 8 (30 are added)
    • PWM value when below low temperature = 8
    • PWM value when over the high temperature limit = 165 (check this, it is tested before ans should be about 3000/3100 rpm)

     

    After you saved it, it will create a config file /etc/fancontrol and it will look like this:

     

    # Configuration file generated by pwmconfig, changes will be lost
INTERVAL=2
DEVPATH=hwmon0= hwmon1=
DEVNAME=hwmon0=coretemp hwmon1=it8721
FCTEMPS=hwmon1/device/pwm1=hwmon0/device/temp2_input
FCFANS= hwmon1/device/pwm1=hwmon1/device/fan1_input
MINTEMP=hwmon1/device/pwm1=20
MAXTEMP=hwmon1/device/pwm1=60
MINSTART=hwmon1/device/pwm1=38
MINSTOP=hwmon1/device/pwm1=8
MINPWM=hwmon1/device/pwm1=8
MAXPWM=hwmon1/device/pwm1=165

     

    Now you can test your setup

     

    bash fancontrol

     

    If things are right the fans should spin-down immediately. Exit with ctrl-c and fans will spin-up again.

     

    We have to edit /opt/sbin/fancontrol change the header to

     

    #!/opt/bin/bash

     

    Time to shutdown and restart your ReadyNAS

     

    shutdown -h now

     

    When your NAS is really off, power it on again. If all is fine, the fan will spin-down after the boot sequence is completed.

     

    If you still boot from an USB stick, maybe it is time to replace the original Netgear bootcode.

     

    First make a backup and copy it to a save place

     

    dd if=/dev/sdu of=/dev/backup_netgear

     

    Copy your image to ie /dev, after that unmount your USB volumes (if your USB stick is still present it is safe to unmount that also)

     

    umount /dev/sdu1

     

    Your USB is probably sdu2

     

    umount /dev/sdu2

     

    Now write the bootcode to sdu1

     

    dd if=/dev/insert_the_name_of_your_image_here.img of=/dev/sdu

     

    Reboot!

     

    Hope this helps those who had problems before.... Now find a way to control the LCD!!!
