January 7, 20215 yr I noticed my server was not responding. I went in via IPMI and saw this so I rebooted. The GUI is up and I'm logged in. This is freaking me out. I rebooted and when I started the array I got this message, But the NVME Cache drive seemed to mount ok. Any Idea what caused this? Really appreciate some help. Should my next step be a MemTest? tower-syslog-20210107-0522.zip Edited January 7, 20215 yr by adminmat

January 7, 20215 yr Community Expert Pool seems fine, at least for now, if it keeps crashing try this to see if it catches anything.

When it crashes does it risk the data on the disks? Or does it gracefully shut them down? Is there something I can do to make sure the disks are stopped properly when I reboot? I get the option to "Power off - Orderly Shutdown" with my motherboard BMS
January 7, 20215 yr Community Expert If it crashes there's always some risk of filesystem corruption, but not much you can do about that.
January 7, 20215 yr Author 2 hours ago, JorgeB said: If it crashes there's always some risk of filesystem corruption, but not much you can do about that. Right. So I set up the rsyslog server on another server (Ubunt in ESXi) and it's currently mirroring the log. And a thank you to @Frank1940 for the help too. If anyone has additional thoughts as to why it would crash please let me know.
January 7, 20215 yr Author @JorgeB is there a way to check for file corruption before I do a backup of all my appdata etc?
January 8, 20215 yr Author 12 hours ago, JorgeB said: https://wiki.unraid.net/Check_Disk_Filesystems I ran the Scrub on the Cache drive. These instructions are a little outdated when using 6.9.0-rc2. I assume now you just click "Scrub" and that's it. I don't see this option on the Cache 2 drive so I assume when scrubbing Cahce it does both? The "Check" button is greyed out and says "Check is only available when array is Started in Maintenance mode" which is in conflict with the Wiki instructions for BTRFS. Also, do I need to run the Balance? I've not done this before.

Correct. 10 hours ago, adminmat said: The "Check" button is greyed out and says "Check is only available when array is Started in Maintenance mode" This is correct, only scrub can be done with the fs online, check in btrfs should only be done without the repair option. 11 hours ago, adminmat said: Also, do I need to run the Balance? Usually not needed as a regular option.
November 5, 20214 yr Did you ever figure this out? I'm getting these exact kernel panic infrequently for a couple of months now. but have had it happen a few times over the past week. I'm going to setup a syslog server to hopefully catch more info about the issue, but any help is appreciated
November 5, 20214 yr Community Expert Generally you should start your own support thread (or use the support thread for help with a specific plugin or docker). But since this is an old thread and nobody else is using it we can try to help you here. Syslog server is needed since otherwise syslog will not survive reboot. But you should also attach your diagnostics to your NEXT post in this thread. That will give us more information about your hardware and configuration than we can get from just syslog.
