Yeah by now it has probably racked up quite a few crashes. I'll run a memtest however attempting to do so from the boot menu just causes a reboot, I read up that this has to do with booting in UEFI but since the flash drive is set as UEFI I see no real way around that which seems a bit odd but I see that others are getting a newer memtest online so I'll search up that now. Is there any particular piece of hardware it would be suggesting the issue may be? I know that what I'm about to say doesn't mean everything is always working perfectly but nearly all the hardware is brand new and it is all compatible with each other, and I've never received DOA or defective hardware yet in my maybe 15 years of building computers, so I'm just curious if there's a specific component that seems most likely the culprit. Would ruling out BIOS settings be in the cards as well? Because I really probably could have used a personal advisor on optimal BIOS settings for an unraid server, I typically don't change much in BIOS when building standard desktop pcs but it seemed like there were more suggested configurations to make in BIOS for a server, I'm still not confident I switched over every setting I should have or that I switched unnecessary settings... Will update once I've got a memtest going for some 24-48 hours *MEMTEST CURRENTLY RUNNING* Edit: Also while trying to get memtest working I ran into this video and right off the bat it is humorous how identical my situation is, even the box of ram he is holding is the ram I have, so I'm about to check this out:

I'm assuming since it went offline again 30 min after the reset another syslog may be helpful so here is a second syslog.. This one seems to have a lot more information syslog

Ok so sometime in the last 4 hours my server went offline. I set a syslog on the local server and chose a drive but it didn't seem to create anything. I also did mirror to flash and the only file I see is simply labled syslog in the logs folder, so I'll post that in hopes that it helps. I don't know what to look for in it though but it looks like it only goes as far back as 10 min ago, which is probably when I hard reset the server. So it doesn't seem to have any information when the server went offline. Also as an update, the server did in fact do the thing again where it went offline again shortly after resetting, it's offline right now again, so I'll hard reset and it should be good for another 2 days before it starts again. syslog

Would the best practice be to turn on the Local Syslog Server? For now I'm sort of blindly flipping that on and hoping for the best.

I'm new to unraid and have recently built my first server but for the past 1-2 months trying to work out the kinks there is one issue I can not get any sort of a grasp on, and that is that my server "goes offline" regularly, like once a day, sometimes more, if I'm lucky I can get it to stay online for around 2 days. To access my server again I have to hold in the power button and restart the tower, I hate doing this so much and it's getting to a point that just feels unhealthy for the PC. So to be clear the tower itself remains powered on, I can hear the flans blowing, the discs spinning, the lights are on, looking at it you wouldn't know anything is up, but accessing the GUI isn't possible, on this unraid website when I go to 'My Servers' it says my server is offline. I have no idea why it's doing this and don't know how to diagnose the cause. It tends to do this almost always when I'm sleeping, I barely ever catch it happen I simply wake up and my server is offline, it just happened right now, maybe even right when midnight hit. I thought at first maybe it was caused by the system sleeping and not waking on LAN, but if that's the case I don't really know how to test for it, I disabled global C states and thought that solved it at one point, which is when my server lasted about 2 days. I also don't think it's a sleep issue because I had just accessed dockers like 10 minutes before it seemed to happen, and I've let the server sit for much longer without activity and it's been fine. Oddly I have noticed that when this happens and I go reset the system, it often happens again in a very short amount of time after the reset. So the process usually looks like: Notice server is offline --> Hard reset --> log back into server --> 30-60 min later server offline again --> Hard reset --> 1-2 days later Server offline --> ( Loop) . Some users on reddit said to consider the power supply but again, I don't think this would be the issue as the power supply is brand new, has plenty of wattage for the system, and the tower itself appears to still be stable and powered when this happens. I also would rather not buy another power supply to test it, being that I really don't think it's the issue. I could really use a hand here. If anyone knows how I can diagnose this it would be appreciated. I'll post the diagnostics since I know that is typically requested. Since I have just reset my server I expect it will off itself again in the next 30 min before I reset it again and it stays up for a day or two. Will edit post to see if this remains true and is indeed most likely a pattern... Edit: So it did not go offline again shortly after however 24 hours later it did go offline, I reset it, and within 30 min it went offline again. anjnas-diagnostics-20230121-0042.zip

I'm setting up my NAS for the first time but it's causing problems in my household as it for some reason is bringing wifi speeds to a screeching hault. I have the NAS plugged into one of my routers LAN ports though my mobo does have wifi functionality. Over ethernet my desktop is pulling 500mbps but over wifi devices are getting speed tests at 0.5mbps, and even 0.09mbps and 0.02mbps. Sometimes when attempting to speedtest I am getting an error page saying "A socket error has occured". Could this mean theres some kind of overlap by default across a socket or something? I'm brand new to networking so any help is greatly appreciated, I need this solved asap! on my dashboard the interface reads: Inbound 5-10kbps Outbound 40kbps bond0fault-tolerance (active-backup), mtu 1500 eth0interface down eth11000 Mbps, full duplex, mtu 1500 lo bonding mode is active-backup bonding memebers eth0 eth1 Bridging enabled IPv4 only IPv4 adress assignment automatic All of this is default. My motherboard has 2 LAN ports but I'm only connected to the router with 1. Wondering if the bonding or bridging settings have something to do with this? Currently my server is just running a disk-clear, no dockers apps vms or anything running, but I'll post the diagnostic if it helps at all. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am completely new to unraid and while I expected to spend some time tinkering I can't really have everyones access to the internet essentially shut off while I'm learning. anjnas-diagnostics-20221220-1935.zip

Hey everyone, so I'm very new to building and managing a NAS as well as networking in general but I've been pretty excited about giving it a shot and building my first NAS. Currently my NAS is doing a parity-check after it got stuck syncing when stopping the array causing me to hard reboot. One thing I have noticed over the last day or two when booting and setting up the NAS is that my internet speeds, particularly wifi, have been absolutely demolished. I don't really understand why as I'm not even doing any file transferring or anything, like I mentioned it's just doing a parity check. My ISP is typically putting out 500+ mbps, which I am getting over the ethernet, but the wifi hardly works at all with the NAS on. My phone seizes up constantly, won't load content, and even says there is no internet connection on my wifi, smart tvs and other wireless devices also aren't loading their content and when I do start a show or movie it takes a while to load and then is at an ungodly resolution/quality, completely unwatchable. Is there something I have done wrong that can cause this? Though I really haven't even got the chance to set up anything other than my parity at the moment. Or is this something I just didn't account for? I mean with 500+ mbps I don't see how my internet wouldn't be suitable for a NAS, but I don't know how to explain what's happening. Also the NAS is plugged directly into one of my routers LAN ports.
