Guys, Just got my server put together over the weekend and started preclearing Saturday. I have 3x 8TB WD Reds. I'm running unRAID 6.3.4 with a i3-6100, supermicro x11ssm mobo & 8gb of ecc ram. The only things I have installed are the preclear plugin and unassigned devices. I decided to do 3 passes of preclear and started them all at the same time. Everything went fine (except a network issue with a cable) and the first preclear finished. The 2nd round started and Tuesday morning all three drives started the zeroing process. I checked Tuesday night and everything seemed to be working. I didn't receive any emails that it had progressed to the next stage. So I logged into the gui last night and the preclear time was still where it showed Tuesday. I didn't have a lot of time so I figured it might update at a later point. Got home earlier and it's still showing the same progress as before.
I tried to pull up the log for preclear but nothing loads. I can download the log but the last entry just shows the zeroing starting Tuesday. I did an ssh connection with putty and typed in preclear. It shows the same stats as the gui. I downloaded the diagnostics but didn't see any errors but I'm not 100% sure what to look for. I will attach that zip.
So my question is did preclear hang on me? Should I stop all 3 preclears and restart the server? If I do will my progress pick up where it left off or will I have to start over? Could this be an issue due to only having 8gb of ram but trying 3 preclears at once?

Edit: I stopped the preclear and powered down the server. I started a preclear on all 3 drives again and it all went fine. All 3 passed with no problem.
