In fact, ix, like many individual users, chooses supermicro motherboards more often. Supermicro motherboards already have buzzers, but they never use them.That would require the system is have a small piezo-electric speaker in the system.
I suspect the most of the systems offered by iXsystems don't have one, or if they do, it is only for BIOS boot beep codes.
I don't see why it would. A NAS operates on a network, and therefore is often--probably "usually"--remote from its users. So who would hear the buzzer going, under whatever circumstances you think that should happen?Shouldn't the buzzer alarm be a basic function as a NAS system?
Because I found that sometimes system alerts cannot be sent by email, and there are also many users who do not set up email notifications.I don't see why it would.

root@NAS-1[/boot]# spkrtest You have no write access to /dev/speaker or the speaker device is not enabled in kernel. Cannot play any melody! See spkr(4).

sh -c "echo -e '\a' > /dev/console"
#!/bin/sh for ((i = 0; i < 20; i++)); do echo -e '\a' > /dev/console sleep 1 done
This command line can make my Supermicr motherboard sound, but how can the system alarm sound?Code:
sh -c "echo -e '\a' > /dev/console"
Excuse me, how should I use it?I figured out how to make the speaker on my QNAP NAS running CORE to beep.
Code:sh -c "echo -e '\a' > /dev/console"
Code:#!/bin/sh for ((i = 0; i < 20; i++)); do echo -e '\a' > /dev/console sleep 1 done
https://xkcd.com/1172/ comes to mind.
@elvisimprsntr gave an example executable script that essentially beeps twenty times.This command line can make my Supermicr motherboard sound, but how can the system alarm sound?
Even for home users I think an audible alarm instead of an email is a really bad idea. Do you have a scenario where there is an advantage?Because I found that sometimes system alerts cannot be sent by email, and there are also many users who do not set up email notifications.
I don't think this feature is redundant for data security.Even for home users I think an audible alarm instead of an email is a really bad idea. Do you have a scenario where there is an advantage?
As to the email setup: If someone is unable or unwilling to do that little bit of work, they don't care about their data anyway.
