I've ran your script on a single NAS and it works beautifully. However when I run it on a High Availability Cluster it only seems to affect the Active Server. I could just make the passive server active and run the script again but it's a production environment. Any thoughts on this? I'm happy to test things after hours etc and thank you so much for writing this you're amazing!

If I understand this Synology page correctly there's no network access to the passive server (until it becomes the active server).

It's a pity you can't temporarily connect another cable to the passive server to SSH in and run the script.

I think the safest option would be to wait until after hours and make the passive server active and run the script again.

Make sure you run the script with the -n option to prevent DSM updating the compatible drive database.

I would normally suggest scheduling the script to run at boot in case DSM updates itself... but I suspect in a production environment you'd have DSM set to not auto update.
