DESCRIPTION The gstopd daemon can be used to stop disks after an certain amount of in- activity using geom(4) statisics. Messages get logged via syslog(3) using the local0.info priority. The options are as follows: -I interval The amount of inactivity in seconds of a disk after which the disk should get stopped Adding a suffix of m, h, or s (the default) in- dicates that the update interval is specified in minutes, hours, or seconds, respectively. diskX Specifies one or more disks which should get monitored and stoped if appropriate. SEE ALSO gstat(8) geom(4) HISTORY A gstopd utility appeared in FreeBSD 5.2. BUGS The gstopd daemon is currently only able to stop disks which are connected to CAM(4) subsystem. Since it stops disks using the external camcontrol(8) tool it will be dif- ficult to get the disk with the root filesystem on it stopped. FreeBSD ports 15.quarterly September 23, 2003 GSTOPD(8)
