Hi, I've had this reoccurring problem for several months now. Plex is the only thing running other than Unassigned Devices that have 2 disks mounted for schlepping files. I'm running Unraid 6.12.0 but this was happening in prior versions as well. Every 2 days, Plex stops functioning and I get lots of these in the Plex log: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Resources/Python/python27.zip/logging/handlers.py", line 76, in emit if self.shouldRollover(record): File "/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Resources/Python/python27.zip/logging/handlers.py", line 157, in shouldRollover self.stream.seek(0, 2) #due to non-posix-compliant Windows feature IOError: [Errno 107] Socket not connected Logged from file agentservice.py, line 786 It requires a reboot to fix. Stopping and starting any dockers immediately after the issue results in "Execution error, Server error" In prior session where this happened I did see "Transport endpoint is not connected" However today I just see "IOError: [Errno 107] Socket not connected" in the Plex log. I've looked at similar threads like these and I've disabled NFS which was only present on the Unassigned devices, but that did not fix it. and this Here are diagnostics from today's event, saved right before reboot. Any help appreciated, thx. tower-diagnostics-20230624-0734.zip

So it was Plex transcoding. After setting it to use a disk share on the cache drive, I could see the following day it was using over 200 GB for transcoding (4k movies). All is well in the GUI since. Thx for your help.

Hi thanks for the reply. I did see the previous post and did not see anything out of the ordinary when running that command. Currently, After a recent re-boot, I'm seeing this: Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on rootfs 12G 1.1G 11G 10% / I have Plex transcoding set to TMP (RAM) - However last time I was having the issue, I did check RAM usage in the GUI and I never saw it above 40%. But it must be Plex, considering it's the only docker running. So I will setup a disk share on the Cache Pool and hope that was the cause. Will report back either way. - Thx again

bump. This is happening every week. It's a major problem. I'm about to leave town and I really need my server to stable. Can anyone provide an explanation or advise to help solve this issue? thx,

Hi, I started having this problem a month or so ago. I'm currently on 6.11.5. If I stop the array and start it again, things begin to function again however the GUI summary on the right of Dashboard no longer lists the drives. The only docker I'm running is Plex-Media-Server and occasionally binhex-krusader. To get full functionality in the GUI i have to reboot the server. I copied the errors from the log while the issue was taking place. I was unable to access save diagnostics until after I stopped and re-started the array. I'm attaching the syslog w/ the errors and the diagnostics from after a re-start of the array. Any help appreciated, thanks. Unraid_SysLogErrors_.txt tower-diagnostics-20221206-0828_GUIprobs.zip

Sry for the delayed response, but for some closure, I narrowed the issue down to Plex and/or mapping shares in Windows 11 on my main client machine. This disks ARE spinning down even with Plex docker running as long as I'm not accessing it from the Win 11 machine. I haven't had time to figure out exactly what on the Win 11 machine is keeping all drives active yet, but I'm satisfied Unraid is functioning correctly.

I was having this issue recently and have since upgraded to 6.10.1 and now 6.10.2 My disk are still NOT spinning down. I have the timeout set to 15 mins. Reading another thread... these disks are attached to an SAS backplane and read as SAS, so I downloaded the Spin Down SAS Drives app. No change. I've now disabled all dockers (plex etc) and still no spindown. This server typically pulls about 220-280 watts, but with all disks active, I'm seeing 450 watts plus. Ouch. Can someone pls advise what might be causing this? Thx

Hi, I'm having trouble with unpacking 'password protected' rars. Basically it sits in testing archive mode and there is no indication that it's waiting for a password nor a dialog box. Is there a tutorial or info on how to configure settings for this? My google searches turned up empty.
