My server has been having intermittent issues where the gui and ssh will become no longer accessible until I reboot the server. I received a notification that it froze at around 11ish today 4/17. I set up a remote sys log server and attached the results. Could someone provide me some guidance on what may be happening or how I can troubleshoot this? I don't see anything in the logs that stick out to me. syslog-192.168.3.7.log

I am having trouble getting the array to stop. I keep getting these errors continuously: Feb 7 15:52:11 ChunkyMonkey emhttpd: Unmounting disks... Feb 7 15:52:11 ChunkyMonkey emhttpd: shcmd (310): /usr/sbin/zpool export cache-system Feb 7 15:52:11 ChunkyMonkey root: cannot unmount '/mnt/cache-system': pool or dataset is busy Feb 7 15:52:11 ChunkyMonkey emhttpd: shcmd (310): exit status: 1 Feb 7 15:52:11 ChunkyMonkey emhttpd: Retry unmounting disk share(s)... Feb 7 15:52:16 ChunkyMonkey emhttpd: Unmounting disks... I followed this link: and ran losetup to receive these results: NAME SIZELIMIT OFFSET AUTOCLEAR RO BACK-FILE DIO LOG-SEC /dev/loop1 0 0 1 1 /boot/bzfirmware 0 512 /dev/loop2 0 0 1 0 /mnt/cache-system/system/docker/docker.img 0 512 /dev/loop0 0 0 1 1 /boot/bzmodules 0 512 I ran umount /dev/loop2 to force the array to stop. Are there any diagnosing steps to prevent this from happening again? I've attached my diagnostics. chunkymonkey-diagnostics-20240207-1556.zip

Did you ever find a solution to this? I have a synology nas that I setup a point to point tunnel to that I wish to run backups to. Trying to find an easy and secure solution.

So I solved it. I was thinking you change the setting at the RAID controller configuration to go to HBA mode, but that didn't work and caused me more issues. After lots of tinkering and get my drives to show again, I found the best solution. I had to go into the configuration of each individual drive and change it to non-raid mode then click go.

Hey I have a new Dell R430 Poweredge server running Unraid. I can get it to boot fine, but the disks are not loading. I have another server with a similar configuration that pulled up these same disks with no issue. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? impairedbear-diagnostics-20240111-1823.zip

Hey All, I'm getting the error message /var/log is getting full. I've looked through them and fixed the cron issue with userscripts, but other than that, I'm not sure what else to do or where to start. Any advice? I've attached my diagnostics. chunkymonkey-diagnostics-20240111-1018.zip

That was it. Thank you!

When I try to start, stop, restart, pause, force stop, hibernate, remove VM, or remove VM and Disks a container or VM it doesn't do anything and will just sit there with the menu highlighted. Without clicking everything, most all the other menu items seem to work find including start with console(VNC) for the vms. I've tried using different browsers. This seems to be a relatively new development maybe in one of the last few updates. I have no clue where to start with diagnosing this. Please see my attached diagnostics. chunkymonkey-diagnostics-20231207-1449.zip

I redid the flash drive. I didn't get a boot error the two times I tried booting it so fingers crossed that is fixed, but my appdata share ownership keeps changing to unknown. Any advice on how to diagnose that?

I lately have been having this kernel panic pop up when I need to restart unraid: Sometimes I can restart and it will go past it and sometimes it takes several restarts. Can anyone decode this for a layman? Once I get Unraid to boot, sometimes I will be missing some of my cache nvme drives. This probably happens 1 in 10 boots and I will need to restart for them to appear again. Then once I get it going with all the drives, I will have all my appdata owership change from nobody to unknown. This causes all my docker containers to not work until I run a script a few times switching it back. The appdata share is on a different cache pool than the nvme drives that disappear. I feel like this may all be related and a hardware issue, but I'm not sure where to start to diagnose this. Any help? chunkymonkey-diagnostics-20230809-1143.zip

As the title says, I keep having ownership changes with my entire appdata share and only that share. It causes issues with all my containers. I happen to catch it in the middle of a change and copied the attached diag file. It started changing sometime around 11-12am today(6/21). I don't see anything that stands out in my log file. Can someone more experienced look through and see if anything stands out that may be causing this? chunkymonkey-diagnostics-20230621-1158.zip

My appdata share keeps changing owner from nobody to unknown when appdata backup runs. Any ideas what’s happening and what steps I may need to do to fix it?

I haven't tried it. Should I leave it in safe mode for a week and see what happens?

As the title says, I keep having ownership changes with my entire appdata share and only that share. Obviously it causes issues with all my containers when this happens and I have to run a Fix Appdata Permissions script to fix it. I currently have to run that several times a week. The last time it happened (some time right before 2023-04-05 14:57:46) this is the only message I saw before it changed: Apr 5 14:56:53 ChunkyMonkey kernel: docker0: port 13(vethf0ca75c) entered disabled state Apr 5 14:56:53 ChunkyMonkey kernel: veth3e9fb99: renamed from eth0 Apr 5 14:56:53 ChunkyMonkey avahi-daemon[14646]: Interface vethf0ca75c.IPv6 no longer relevant for mDNS.

This doesn't seems like something that would cause that to my untrained eye, but is all I see. I've also noticed it seems to happen around the time that appdata backup runs. This is exhausting as I'm fairly new to Unraid and want to get this thing to be stable, but I'm about to give up. Please help me get this thing running properly. chunkymonkey-diagnostics-20230406-0829.zip

It looks like that is causing the share floor to be set at about 164gb. I removed that, but how would that help mover move the files?

Hopefully I don't need to make a new tread, but I'm still having trouble with mover. Since I made this post, I have built a separate cache pool for my default shares and those are set to prefer. All my media and basically everything else is goes into a separate media cache pool and is set to Yes:cache-media. That media pool keeps getting completely full and I have to shut everything down and wait a few hours for it to start emptying. Can someone tell me what is going on here or where I can search the logs to find out why stuff isn't moving? chunkymonkey-diagnostics-20230319-1922.zip

Since I'm moving files from cache to array, I also need to remove "use hardlinks instead of copy" option in the 'arr settings, correct?

Gotcha. I like that. How do you move to a new share for the post processing, a script? If so, do you mind DMing it to me?

Could you break this down a little more? You use two cache pools for your media downloads or just one of the two? What is the path that your media downloads take because that obviously is my issue. Sounds like a great recommendation to break up my cache pool into two.

Will do. Any recommendations going forward? Should I not use cache for media downloads?

It finally kicked into gear and has almost cleared out all of the media files. It seemed like it started working after about fours hours after that last post.

Scratch that. It moved about 100gb then stopped. It says mover is still running but I haven’t seen a change in about 15 minutes and the data rate dropped significantly.

27G /mnt/cache/appdata 49G /mnt/cache/domains 71G /mnt/cache/system 0 /mnt/cache/temp 3.3T /mnt/cache/data 50G /mnt/cache/backups 3.5T /mnt/cache Mover seems to be moving now that both docker and vm is off, but it wasn't earlier in the day when just docker was off. Like I said earlier, the only vm I'm running right now is Homeassistant which shouldn't be touching my media share.

I have changed the default shares to only. I have deleted the other two shares listed as prefer as they didn't have any important data on them anyway. I ran the mover and nothing has moved off the cache since you last posted approximately 2 hours ago. Other than the default shares, all shares are either listed as Yes:Cache or No with nothing on the cache. Computing all the share size showed that a vast majority of the cache data is from my media download/storage drive (named data).

While I still would like to know if I’m using the cache pool in a way that isn’t recommended, I still think something else is wrong with my mover or the way it is configured. I’ve turned off docker. I now only have my Homeassistant VM running. I’ve checked my open files and it doesn’t appear that I have anything with my media files open. After this, I’ve invoked mover and it has been running for over and hour and has hardly moved anything. I started with about 250gb space remaining and am now at 267gb. Any guesses where to start?
