Find Thumbnail Conversion Process IDĮvery computer process always has a unique process ID (PID) associated with it for reference. By default, the root password should be the same as your admin account. You must be logged in as root or the final query will give you a “Permission Denied” error.Īt this point it may say something about an RSA key fingerprint (particularly if this is the first time you’ve ever connected via SSH) and ask if you’re sure you want to continue connecting. If, for whatever reason the Synology does not respond to the SSH request, make sure SSH is enabled by logging into the DiskStation Manager interface and navigating to Control Panel > Terminal & SNMP > Terminal. Update 08/2015: Windows 10 now includes SSH in PowerShell. In Mac you merely need to open a terminal window, but in Windows you would have to third-party utility like PuTTY (because Microsoft’s Telnet solution does not support SSH protocol). This process assumes some familiarity with command-line tools like telnet. Here I’ll detail how to connect to the Synology device via SSH to find out what files synomkthumbd is currently performing thumbnail conversion for. In Synology DiskStation Manager, this process is called Thumbnail Conversion. The background process that generates thumbnail images for Synology devices is the aptly named synomkthumbd, presumably for Synology Make Thumbnail Daemon. I myself was curious which exact file the conversion process was working on, so I found the means which I’ll explain here. A common complaint from Synology users is that they can’t tell if the thumbnail process is frozen. When a new file is indexed, this kickstarts a process that asks the thumbnail generator to get to work generating various thumbnail sizes for a given file. By default, Synology NAS devices will index all media files (pictures, music, videos) and generate applicable thumbnails.
