Reboot KByte Reporting FALSE #9

After a reboot, I'm getting the word FALSE instead of total in KBytes, see attachments.

Running 2.1.9 of OMV.

Your root drive probably changed drive letters. It only detects the root drive when installing the plugin. I guess I can change it to detect all the time.

Yup that was it. I installed a Ext USB drive to copy some data, and noticed now that it was assigned /dev/sdc1 and not the USB Boot Drive. I manually went into /etc/openmediavault/config.xml edited the correct device and now it's reporting correctly the KBytes.

I experienced the following on two different OMV-machines both running OMV 2.1 with installed openmediavault-omvextrasorg 2.2 and flashmemory 1.9

First machine: this machine has exactly the same harddrives connected as was the case during install of the plugin. Despite that it shows Root as /dev/sda1 but the USB-boot-drive is /dev/sdc1, so the GUI shows the amount of Kbytes written to the sda1-HDD instead of the amount written to the USB-boot-drive.

Second machine: I had only the USB-boot-drive connected while installing the flashmemory-plugin. The GUI showed /dev/sda1 for Root, but at that time there was no /dev/sda1 in the whole system. The "Write Kbytes" said false. Since then I connected a single SATA-harddrive, which became /dev/sda1 while the boot-usb-drive stayed at /dev/sdb1. Since then instead of "false" the "Write Kbytes" on this machine shows the amount of data written to the sda1-HDD!

Conclusion: To me it seems the plugin always shows the amount of data written to /dev/sda1 no matter what and it says "false" when the is no /dev/sda1 in the system. Looks like a but to me! Question: does the flashmemory plugin work as intended despite showing the wrong things in the GUI?

Read my comment two comments above yours. The value is just a display of a file in the /sys directory. It has nothing to do with the function of the plugin. If the boot drive letters change, it won't be updated. I will look at fixing it.

Ok, looking forward to the fix then. Great plugin and very important for OMV! Thanks for your work!
