Sorry, me again. Just updated my docker setup to the latest Jellyfin but am now facing the issue that ever since I updated several days ago, my hdd is not going to sleep as it did before.

I use hd-idle to spin down my external harddrive which has everything Jellyin on it, media and configs. Worked perfectly fine before upgrading to 10.11, for several years.

After updating to 10.11 this does not work anymore, my hdd is running without any sleep and with no activity on the server. Nothing changed in how the server is used. There are no scheduled tasks running continuously. When I go to the logs in the dashboard it doesn’t record anything happening either during the times it normally would have put the hdd to sleep.

Anyone got any idea what it is or how I could narrow down what it could be that seems to keep writing on my hdd? Or is this intended behaviour of the new version?

    If you check the folder in the HDD, are there any other files like the database backup or log files?

    If not, then strace -e file -p pid is my best friend for figuring out what files a process is touching.

      On the file structure I only found the same logs I can access from the dashboard. Those only show scheduled tasks which are not running through the day.

      Your suggestion means I need to know the pid of Jellyfins process? And I guess I need to run it when I think something is happening at the moment?
