TuxOnIce

TuxOnIce (prije znan kao suspend2) alternativni je modul zadužen za mogućnosti suspenzije (spavanja) i hibernacije na Linuxu. Za razliku od swsusp koji je ugrađen u sam Linux kernel i pretpostavljen na većini distribucija, TuxOnIce nudi više mogućnosti, brži je te u nekim slučajevima radi pouzdanije.

Mogućnosti:

• kompresija slike (LZF - vrlo brzo i jako preporučeno).
• Full asynchronous I/O and readahead for synchronous I/O for maximum throughput.
• Multithreaded compression & I/O.
• Support for any number of swap partitions and/or files.
• Support for using an ordinary file instead of swap.
• The ability to cancel hibernating or restoring the image by pressing escape.
• Support for saving a full image of your memory, resulting in a fast, responsive system after resuming.
• The ability to specify a maximum image size.
• Support for plugins: data transformers (compression, encryption) and new storage backends (NFS support is planned).
• Works out of the box for most configurations.
• Nice user interface (GenSplash compatible).
• Scripting support.
• Speed and reliability - TuxOnIce has been extensively tested in a variety of configurations over many years. It is not guaranteed to be perfect, but bugs found will be hunted and fixed quickly.
• Can be configured to be a drop-in replacement for swsusp (for swap partitions - swap files are configured more simply with TuxOnIce).
• Podrška za FUSE (u razvoju).

Instalacija na Fedori

Najjednostavnija instalacija je iz repozitorija Matthiasa Henslera:

wget http://mhensler.de/swsusp/download/suspend2.repo -O /etc/yum.repos.d/suspend2.repo
yum install kernel-tuxonice pm-utils-tuxonice

Dobro je još instalirati i dodatne pakete za grafički prikaz hibernacije:

yum install userui-tuxonice-fbsplash userui-tuxonice-theme-fedoraconstatine

Nakon toga je potreban restart na novi kernel s ugrađenim TuxOnIceom.

Naredbe iz CLI-a su:

hibernate

za hibernaciju,

suspend

za suspendiranje/spavanje.
