Problems setting schedule (pause) on 0.6.0RC2 on Nas unit

Post by tinybilbo »

Hi,

I've been using 0.53 for a while now on my windows machine.
I have just switched to a Nas box (Dlink 323), which runs under Linux.
I have installed 0.6.0RC2, and it downloads, unpacks, and does parity without any issue, except...
I can't get the scheduling to work with the "pause" or "pause all" commands.

I have set the commands just as I did in 0.53.

i.e
Task 1: 10:00 - Daily - Pause All
Task 2: 0:00 - Daily - Resume

It simply does'nt pause at all, and downloading continues all day.

I have set a workaround of limiting the download to 1k at 10am and full speed at midnight, and this works,
so it appears that the scheduling itself is working, just not the pause (or pause all) commands.

The reason I want the pause working, is that when I reduce the speed, I seem to get more download errors,
causing more repairs.

Am I doing something wrong, has the way pause works changed since 0.53?
I have searched through the forum and can't find anything to help...

Thanks

There have been some reports about failing scheduled pause.
However, we have never been able to reproduce any irregularity.
I'm not saying it doesn't happen, just that we don't know what the cause is.

An alternative could be to disable all servers (you can schedule that too).

Ok Thanks,
I did'nt know if something had changed...
I also can't get it to disable the servers either, just the throttling works,
so I'll stick with that for the time being..
