Ok will do, thanks!

Ok I have had another crash, and I think I worked out why it's happening. It's the same issue as my last post 😅 It seems my LiteLLM container is using too much memory. I started the LiteLLM container and watched the server RAM usage go from 52% up to 96% over about 10 minutes. I confirmed with htop that LiteLLM was using all that extra RAM. After that the whole server froze the same as before and I had to reset it with the restart button. I'll have to try and figure out if there's some kind of memory leak with the container or if it's the way I've set it up, or maybe it's normal and I just need way more RAM. As a fallback, is there a way to confine a container to only use a maximum amount of RAM? I've attached the syslog anyway if you're interested. syslog-10.1.1.10.log

Ok will do, thanks.

Hi, in the last few days I have started experiencing unraid unexpectedly freezing and being unable to interact with it. It has happened 3 times now I think - randomly - but usually while I'm logged in to it. When it happens I can't load the web UI, can't load the web UI of any docker applications, and DNS on my network devices stops working due to the pihole docker stopping. I can ping the server from my computer, but that's all. I noticed this issue start a few days ago after I had an issue while downloading lots of files, and the mover wasn't running frequently enough which caused my cache drive to fill up to 100%. My docker volume is a directory on the cache drive, so a few of the dockers crashed and had errors, which makes sense, but I'm not sure what's causing the instability with the operating system now. Would somebody be able to have a look at my diagnostics and try to help me figure out what's causing the problem? I had to press the restart button on the server to get it to reboot and get the diagnostics. Hopefully it didn't erase the info you need. Thankstower-diagnostics-20250806-1244.zip

I only use ones like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini though. I use OpenWebui to access them all from a single interface. I avoided the local ones like Llama etc. because my server isn't very powerful...I guess that didn't work haha.

Ok that makes sense. I didn't realise running big models used a lot of RAM - I thought it all happened in the cloud lol. I'll do some testing with different models and try to work out what the server can handle. Thanks for your help.

Oh ok. Yeah I have rebooted since the first post - 25 days ago. Probably something similar happened again since then. I've attached new diagnostics if you don't mind taking a look? tower-diagnostics-20250729-2019.zip

I'm still getting this error, but still haven't noticed any issues. Any advice?

Hi, Fix common problems is telling me I have an out of memory error, and to post here asking for help. This only started yesterday. I haven't noticed any disruption...yet. Any advice would be appreciated. Diagnostics attached. Thanks in advance. tower-diagnostics-20250601-2248.zip

Oh my goodness. It's all there. Such a relief! Thank you so much! I guess the mount configs must be saved on the flash drive or something and restarting just resets them to that config? Now I think I will just recreate the docker image and stop trying to balance it to solve that problem.

Oh, that sounds hopeful! I was scared to reboot in case it made things worse. And yes I think I'll take the simple option of rebooting if it will work just as well. Here goes...

I have been having issues with my docker image filling up. I deleted orphaned images and volumes etc. which seemed to help, but the docker settings page was still saying there was no available space and my server kept freezing. So I started trying to check for issues in the docker image. I ran the scrub on the docker settings page, then I ran btrfs check --readonly /mnt/user/system/docker/docker.img and then attempted to balance the docker image. This is where it gets bad. I tried to mount the docker image to run the balance and used the command mount -o loop /mnt/user/system/docker/docker.img /mnt This replaced everything in my /mnt directory, so it looks like all my data is gone. I know what I did was incredibly stupid and careless. I was rushing and overtired and not thinking. But I don't even know where to start with trying to recover from this. Is there anything I can do to try and get the data back? Thankfully I do have cloud backups of the most important stuff, but I would still hate to lose the rest of the data (mostly media), and starting again from the backup would not be fun. Thanks in advance. tower-diagnostics-20241221-0038.zip

I was on 6.9.2 so I just upgraded to 6.10.3 and tried adding the URLs again. The icons updated and then survived a force update and a server restart so it looks like that fixed it. Thanks for the help, I can't believe it was that easy in the end! I should have upgraded sooner.

Hi, can anyone help me fix the icons on a couple of my docker containers? They are always reverting to a question mark no matter what I seem to do. After looking for solutions in the forums and google etc. I have tried: Changing the icon URL in the container template to a URL that contains the icon I want. This will work for a bit, and then revert back to a question mark after a couple of hours. Deleting the images from /var/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix.docker.manager/images, adding the URL back to the container template, and force updating. Deleting the images from /var/lib/docker/unraid/images and copying the correct image into that folder, then deleting the old image from /var/local/emhttp/plugins/dynamix.docker.manager/images. After refreshing my browser the image appeared, but then after force updating the container it went back to a question mark. Deleting the images from /boot/config/plugins/dockerman/images. (There is no image in here for one of the containers). Restarting Unraid after trying the above steps. Clearing cache in browser and also viewing the docker page from a different browser. Using images at different URLs. If it matters, the problem containers are snipe/snipe-it and atribe/apcupsd-influxdb-exporter. The icons I am trying to use are snipe-it and apcupsd-influxdb-exporter. I have been having this problem for nearly a year and every time I look at my dockers I see the question marks begging to be fixed, but every time I sit down determined to fix it I come away with nothing. I'm at a loss - does anyone have any ideas on what to try?

Ha, didn't even think of that. I suppose that would work. May resort to that if needed. Interesting. I assume that would be something like this, or this? Are there other benefits of using an add on sata controller, apart from being easier to plug in?
