Hello,

i am New in here and i am using Freenas 8.0 Realase 64Bit

it will be nice to have the Option "Beep on Boot" back again or any other Audio Signal when Freenas is Ready to use after Boot.


Thanks

Yes ! A few simple Beeps .... BEEP ON : Hey I am up and running ... BEEP OFF : Hey I'm going down for reboot/or power down.

as addition, beep codes for other notifications or errors (optional ofcourse) would be nice on top. But agree with previous posters that a startup/shutdown beep would be a nice start.

This would be a handy to have a beep once FreeNAS has completely booted. I can't imagine it would be difficult to add and as Bohs mentioned, diagnostic beeps for drive failures as an example would be great as well, maybe the sequence would be "beep" for drive ada0, "beep beep" for drive ada1 and so on and maybe when we hit 2 digits, two separate beeps like 14 would be 1 beep followed by 4 beeps. It could be more elaborate depending on all the possible errors you might want to be notified. Maybe a sequence tones to indicate catastrophic failure. The list could go on. One thing that should be there is we get the beeps back is a disable beep feature.

Hey this is a feature wish list so why not wish for everything.

Maybe something musical from Duke Nukem. Or from the WOPR.
