Hi,

 

I am getting out of memory errors being reported so have attached my diags, if someone could help that would be great!  I am not seeing anything untoward though?

Unlikely to be the cause of your memory issue, but maybe an indication of other misconfigurations that could be.

 

Why have you given 75G to docker.img? Have you had problems filling it? 20G is usually more than enough, and making it larger won't fix filling it, it will only make it take longer to fill. The usual cause of filling docker.img is an application writing to a path that isn't mapped.

 

On a similar note, the usual reason for docker filling RAM is mapping a host path that isn't actual storage.

 

Do you have any VMs?

 

A lot of defunct .cfg files in config/shares on your flash. You might clean those up to make diagnostics neater.

I set that size many years ago when I first installed unraid, never had an issue with it so never worried about it.

As above, not had any issues

Yes I have 3 VM's

How would I go about resolving this?

Delete .cfg files in config/shares on flash that don't correspond to any of your user shares.
