My network died for a few minutes on Unraid (depsite a new NIC and updated drivers) so I went to diagnose via the syslog. However while the problem occurred at 18:45, my log only runs till 11:30, cutting out mid-entry:

 

Nov 24 11:30:05 Unraid smbd[16572]: 
Nov 24 1

 

Any ideas what happened and how I can find out what caused my network to die?

Not a MAC guy, but it appears OTOH that you're using one.  I believe that there's a setting 

which you should be enabling.  (The entire syslog is a disaster due to smb crashes that look like its related to VFS_FRUIT

Thanks Squid, yes you're right I am using a Mac and had been trying to transfer several gigs from one onto my Unraid array earlier. However I have the setting on Yes.

 

I've enabled syslog write to my flash so I can access it more easily in future. Think I'll reboot my Unraid device and see that helps.

because you filled log space

Ah, thanks. I just assumed that it would write over previous files. Yes looking at my dashboard I see it at 100%.
