I tried the reboot command but that didn't work either. Do you mean do a hard boot or is there another command I can use?

I am unable to connect to the web gui. I can ping the address and I can ssh into the server as well. Looking at the log there was a brief power failure but the UPS kept it running. I tried to do a shutdown -r and in the log after the shutdown message, it said switching to runlevel 6 then it said Trying to re-exec init. That was the last entry. I'm running the current version of UnRaid.

The reader's Digest version is that the motherboard lost connection to the USB UNRAID boot drive.
Following tee-tee jorge's advice, I did a hard reboot. However, after a few minutes, I couldn't ping it and my router didn't show it connecting.
I then connected it to my second monitor and connected a keyboard and did another hard boot. I went into the bios and discovered the priority boot drive was not the USB drive. In fact the USB drive was not displayed at all. So I powered the server down and removed the UNRAID USB drive and connected it to my Win desktop. I did get a brief message that there was a problem and I should do a quick scan of the device but I ignored that and went to see if I could see the files. I could so I plugged the USB drive into a different USB port on the NAS server and applied power. I went into the bios and now it found the USB drive. I set it as priority boot and closed. The server rebooted and now UNRAID came up. I was then able to connect to the Web interface and start the Array. It is currently running a parity check. But otherwise it appears to be OK. I have to conclude the problem was with the motherboard and not UNRAID. It may have had to do with the power interruption yesterday although the UPS did kick in briefly. I hope this helps anyone else who runs into a similar problem.
