July 17, 20214 yr I am starting to get frequent problems with Unraid. It always seems to happen in the middle of the night, or when I'm at work. It's frustrating when the wife and kids complain when I get out of work and I have to try to trouble shoot. So, help me with my marriage. I'm attaching dianostics, and syslog. The system was up and running around 03:00am local, and was problematic when I notices around 14:00 local. The screen GUI was up on the local box but unresponsive. SSH was not working. WebGui was not working. I did have a drive problem yesterday that was solved in another thread (xfs_repair), though I suspect unrelated since this current issue is an ongoing issue. This has happened repeatedly, and requires a hard reset, which unfortunately then starts a parity check which runs around 36 hours. Any ideas? orcrist-diagnostics-20210717-1558.zip orcrist-syslog-20210717-2207.zip
July 18, 20214 yr Author Thanks, Jorge. I had another crash while I was at work. I'll upload it in the morning. I had enabled a system log but had it writing to a local file and backing it up every 10 minutes. I was worried that backing it up to the flash drive would write too much data. Is that really an issue? Do I need to take the file off of the flash drive before I restart unRAID? If I restart the system will it overwrite the existing log file? Just curious about the order that I should do things. Edited July 18, 20214 yr by mikesp18

August 17, 20214 yr Author syslog Well, just got a crash with syslog server running. I was watching a movie, so I know the server went down shortly before the restart. EDIT: looks like there is a filesize limit, and the errors spammed so hard to make the file 50mb. This is just the last 1mb ish of the file syslog1 Edited August 17, 20214 yr by mikesp18

August 17, 20214 yr Author And another crash around 23:00 8/16/2021.syslog (3).zip Edited August 17, 20214 yr by mikesp18
August 17, 20214 yr Community Expert There's nothing logged about the crash: Aug 16 23:01:10 Orcrist rc.inet1: ip link set lo down Aug 17 08:06:25 Orcrist kernel: microcode: microcode updated early to revision 0xde, date = This usually indicates a hardware problem.

I think I figured it out. The UPS Daemon was triggering the shutdown I think. Unclear why, it is at full power. But, that's the least bad thing it could be.
August 22, 20214 yr Author orcrist-diagnostics-20210821-2347.zipsyslog.zip I'm getting pretty frustrated. I'm crashing roughly once every other day at this point. I thought the problem was the UPS triggering shutdowns, but alas, it's no longer hooked up via UPS. No recent hardware changes. The only thing obvious in the syslog is this message spammed 1000 times (exageration). ANy ideas? Tonight looks like around Aug 21 23:21, system was still powered on, the webui wouldn't log in, and physical screen was crashed at the GUI login screen, and the keyboard was unresponsive. Does this mean anything useful?

August 22, 20214 yr Community Expert Don't know why you keep creating new threads for the same problem. I have merged them all. Isn't that better since we all now have some context about what has already been discussed?
August 23, 20214 yr Try downgrading to 6.8.3 or upgrading to 6.10-RC1. I was getting hangs every 2 days or so, now I am back on 6.8.3 the system has been rock solid for the last 23 days
