XO unresponsive when Remote storage is offline.
-
Due to high electric coast and current heat I am trying to keep things powered off until needed. So I setup a power schedule for my Synology device used for backups. However when the device is powered off XO becomes unresponsive. If I set the remote to disabled xo is stays alert.
What would be the suggested way to automate the enable and disabling the remote when the device is offline? If this is something do able by xo but would need to be built, let me know and I will add it to the V6 request list.

Hi,
The best approach is first to unplug the PBD (or disable the remote) while the storage is UP, and then shutdown the target/storage node itself.
The opposite is 100% causing issues due to the nature itself of a network storage.
You can use the REST or JSON-RPC API to disable the remote and then send the shutdown order. This way, no problem.

Perfect. Created a script to run on the Synology device at startup it enables to the remotes, then at shutdown it disables the remotes.

Great! I think this is really the best possible approach to make it clean
