Fizzyade Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 <rant> Tbh, I'm getting sick of problems since 6.9 and thinking of starting to look at alternative solutions to Unraid. I appreciate that this may not be the experience of others, but prior to 6.9 I had no problems, zero, none, nada, I didn't expect 6.9 to cause so many problems from day 1. The VM performance is killing my machine, I'm seeing loads of 70-700 when VM's are idle and qemu consuming all the CPU. When I first updated I had an issue where every KVM was locking up the graphics, the VM's themselves were still running but unable to VNC to the KVM, I eventually edited one of the VM's config file in the editor and suddenly all the VM's stopped locking the KVM up. I've seen that others are having this problem too, I've tried the "fixes" that have been mentioned, but nothing thus far has solved it. Between that and continual "blank pages" (i.e I get the unraid header but no actual content) returned from the web server, sections empty or missing it's starting to become a really miserable experience. Long standing issues like the VNC port resetting when making changes in the GUI, that I've mentioned several times over the course of a few years still haven't been fixed, this is *basic* stuff. The GUI feels clunky. The mover has always been a resource hog, killing the machine when it runs, this is an machine with 64GB of RAM, ssd's for the cache and VM's. I'm at a loss to what is actually going on, but it has got to the point now that I'm losing faith in my Unraid solution. Quote Link to comment

Fizzyade Posted May 11, 2021 Author Share Posted May 11, 2021 Once again, the GUI has locked up. A linux VM that was completely idle sent unraid into a load average of 100. Yesterday when I had to reboot it, a different idle linux VM ended up sending it to 700. Quote Link to comment
Fizzyade Posted May 11, 2021 Author Share Posted May 11, 2021 I can't reboot it, in going to have to hard power down the machine. reboot failed as did reboot -f Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted May 11, 2021 Share Posted May 11, 2021 There's an optical drive generating a lot of timeout errors, these can make the server unresponsive, you should fix it (by replacing cables) or disconnected it if cables don't help.

The VM's causing excessive load is what is killing me at the moment, they're idle with no load in the VM but I'm seeing ridiculously high loads in unraid. Quote Link to comment
