[Bug 1131713] Re: DiskMonitor not working

[Alain Miltenburg]

** Description changed:

  I am unable to get the DiskMonitor to work on my server. Powernap still
  wants to suspend when the disks are spinning.
  
  Steps to reproduce:
  1. sudo apt-get -y install powernap
  2. sudo hdparm -S 60 /dev/sda (Sets spindown to 5 minutes for drive sda)
- 3. After 10 minutes: sudo hdparm -C /dev/sda Check if spindown is working
+ 3. After 5 minutes: sudo hdparm -C /dev/sda Check if spindown is working
  2. sudo hdparm -S 251 /dev/sda (Sets spindown to 5,5 hours)
  4. sudo apt-get install -y powernap
  5. add this to the [DiskMonitor] section of /etc/powernap/config: sda = y
  6. sudo service powernap restart
  
  Expected behaviour:
  Powernap should not take any powersaving actions while the configured harddrive keeps spinning.
  
  Encountered behaviour:
  Powernap takes powersaving actions while the harddrive is still spinning.
