I messed something up (probably about the docker service) and my server is now messed up. Turning on the docker service (by which I mean  when setting Enable Docker to Yes in settings when the array is on) will make the system somewhat unresponsive. Some pages will takes ages to load, sometimes fix common problems will get stuck etc. But this is inconsistent.

 

What is consistent is after turning docker on I wont be able to turn off some containers. (that has been working perfectly for over a year and I haven't touched them). This will in turn will make me un able to stop the array and shut down the server, requiring a hard restart. The server will never fully freeze and I am able to ssh in to it. But no linux shutdown/halt command I found online or killing docker processes will do anything. 

 

I tried pretty much everything I could find in this forum.

 

Lastly I tried formatting my USB drive and only copying or my plug-ins and configs for the shares, users, passwords etc. Nothing docker related. Then I set it up linuxservers Plex docker. It worked perfectly fine. But then I tried to stop it in the UI, and my system went back to that state again. Every time I clicked on stop it will show the arrows the UI but after 10 minutes I would refresh the page and the containerwould still show as running.

 

I worked on this for 3 days straight now and about to loose it. Please help me.

Jan 15 19:00:12 fatma kernel: Call Trace:
Jan 15 19:00:12 fatma kernel: btrfs_ioctl_fitrim+0xfb/0x13e

 

There was a btrfs crash, looks like trim related, also cache pool is missing a device, you need to fix that, and if there are more btrfs crashes best to backup and recreate that filesystem.

Forgot to mention you'll want to reboot first before doing anything with any btrfs filesystem.

Thank you for the help!

 

The missing disk was on purpose. My array drives are connected to a LSI board because with two M.2s (my btrfs raid 1 cache pool) my motherboard wont let me use all the onboard sata ports. I temporally took one of the SSDs out to use all the onboard Sata ports for testing. So my questions are:

 

If something like this happens again, is there a way to gracefully shut down the system without holding the power button? (linux commands from ssh didnt work) 

 

Add my LSI card is very new. Could that be causing issues like this? I'm adding its details below. It's it came in IT mode and I haven't done anything to it

Looks like it has a old firmware version, so you might want to consider updating it to the most recent version. 

Updated both the BIOS and Firmware using the excellent guide here:

 

Do you know what the setting "Boot Support" in the cards BIOS does? 

 

 

 

Your appdata and system shares have files on the array. This will impact docker performance due to slower parity array, and keep array disks spunup since these shares always have open files.
