My unraid server keeps crashing about every other day.

[Jurak]

My server keeps crashing its happening about every other day. When it crashes the only way to get it back is to power off the server and start it back up. I have tried to SSH into it when this happens but I'm unable to connect its basically completely down. I know by restarting the server it clears the logs. So is there a way to have the logs saved to the flash drive while its running to have the logs when it crashes to provide to you guys to look at? Attached is the logs after starting the server back up just in case there is any info in there. I am also connecting a monitor to it to see if it shows anything when this happens.

 

Thanks.

Yes, you can enable the syslog server, but before that check this.

Thanks I have enabled the syslog server. I have also followed the other article you posted. Changed the c states and the power supply settings. The memory was already set to what is listed in the article. If it crashes again, I will post the logs.

 

Thanks again.

It wasn't in the diags posted.

You have both single and dual rank DIMMs, so dual rank settings probably apply.

Try removing the CoreFrequency plugin.  I had a similar issue and removing it solved my problems.

Yeah its set at the dual rank speed at least that is what the bios stated last time I was in there.

just to say that my server is also hanging moreorless every day, needing reboot, parity etc.  Mine seems to be a panic in Samba though, just in case yours is similar, not trying to hijack the thread, i've raised my own.

Ok crashed during the night. Here is the syslog and the last diagnostics the was on the flash drive. I hope there is something in there to help with this.

Nothing about the crash in the syslog, this usually points to a hardware issue, and not saying that is the problem but RAM is still overclocked.

Damn ok I will check that again. Thanks

Doing a memtest. Its still running but it looks like one of ram sticks is going bad. Many errors around the same area.

Yep memtest finished. One ram stick is bad with over 25 errors on it. So pulled that stick and booting back up. Its gskill ram and they have a limited lifetime warranty so guess I will start an RMA.
