how to delay usb disks on AC87U

[Benesch Csaba]

Hi all,

I have two hdds, with 4 partiton.

UUID=ff566fb4-d01d-49ca-b01d-c68b1afcc190 swap swap defaults 0 0
UUID=bfd1a872-4008-4ace-9468-1b9fe3fcb9cc /tmp/mnt/optware-ng ext4 rw,nodev,relatime,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0
UUID=e97a6f5d-dade-4ad5-9ba1-48505444fa21 /tmp/mnt/data1 ext4 rw,nodev,relatime,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0
UUID=d3d00527-fc54-48ce-825f-25014446d722 /tmp/mnt/data2 ext4 rw,nodev,relatime,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0


the services started more faster (dont wait for hdds), for example minidlna and transmissiobt give me a error, because optware-ng, data 1 and data2 are not mounted....

I have the following scripts in my jffs:

UUID=ff566fb4-d01d-49ca-b01d-c68b1afcc190 swap swap defaults 0 0
UUID=bfd1a872-4008-4ace-9468-1b9fe3fcb9cc /tmp/mnt/optware-ng ext4 rw,nodev,relatime,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0
UUID=e97a6f5d-dade-4ad5-9ba1-48505444fa21 /tmp/mnt/data1 ext4 rw,nodev,relatime,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0
UUID=d3d00527-fc54-48ce-825f-25014446d722 /tmp/mnt/data2 ext4 rw,nodev,relatime,barrier=1,data=ordered 0 0


post-mount script:
#!/bin/sh

if [ "$1" = "/tmp/mnt/optware-ng" ] ; then
ln -nsf $1/optware-ng.arm /tmp/opt
fi

services-start:
#!/bin/sh

RC='/opt/etc/init.d/rc.unslung'

i=60
until [ -x "$RC" ] ; do
i=$(($i-1))
if [ "$i" -lt 1 ] ; then
logger "Could not start Optware-NG"
exit
fi
sleep 1
done
$RC start

init-start:
#!/bin/sh
echo 524288 > /proc/sys/net/core/rmem_max
echo 524288 > /proc/sys/net/core/wmem_max
echo 8192 > /proc/sys/vm/min_free_kbytes

firewall-start:
#!/bin/sh

iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --destination-port 9091 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --destination-port 51413 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I INPUT -p udp --destination-port 51413 -j ACCEPT


How can I say.... How can I delay all services to waiting first to mount all drives and swap drive?
Firmware ist 380.57.3_HGG-FINAL and I use optware-ng.

No one? So the services started before all the devices mounted, any help?

The router should automatically be restarting the USB related services, like minidlna, samba, etc., when it detects a change in the USB attached drives. Those USB services can actually stop/start several times during boot. There is no way to delay or force a certain order to the various events that occur during the router boot.

Please post a copy of your syslog (editing MAC addresses) that shows the problem.

The problem was, that the services has started first, for example by Transmission I get some of errors with the downloaded files (on "data1"), because the usb was not mounted before the transmission. I have edited the post-mount script to:

usb3.0 disk
/dev/sda1 (label=swap)
/dev/sda2/optware-ng (label=optware)
/dev/sda3/data1 (label=data1)

usb2 disk:
/dev/sdb1

#!/bin/sh

if [ "$1" = "/tmp/mnt/optware-ng" ] ; then
ln -nsf $1/optware-ng.arm /tmp/opt
fi

sleep 2m
datestr=$(date +%Y%m%d_%H%M%S)
ps=/jffs/ps
# date used to add to the log file (append) so all the logs will be collected with the date and time no log overwriting....

if grep data1 /etc/mtab &>/dev/null; then
echo $datestr "USB disk for data1 is mounted for media server operation" >> /tmp/syslog.log
else exit
fi

/bin/ps > $ps
if
grep minidlna /jffs/ps &>/dev/null; then
echo $datestr "minidlna server is already started and is not using its new configuration" >> /tmp/syslog.log
else
/opt/etc/init.d/S98minidlna start
fi
rm $ps

if grep data1 /etc/mtab &>/dev/null; then
echo $datestr "USB disk for data1 is mounted for transmission server operation" >> /tmp/syslog.log
else exit
fi

/bin/ps > $ps
if
grep transmission-daemon /jffs/ps &>/dev/null; then
echo $datestr "transmission server is already started and is not using its new configuration" >> /tmp/syslog.log
else
/opt/etc/init.d/S95transmission start
fi
rm $ps

and now working fine. The script is so ok?
