Hey all,

I have been experiencing crashes every 30 days almost exactly down to the hour. The only thing that was running on a monthly basis was CA Backup/Restore, but this is being run on the 2nd of each month and my crashes are usually around the 28th-31st of each month. About 17 days ago i updated from 6.9.2 to 6.10.3 in hopes of something changing by switching docker network type from macvlan to ipvlan. From most of the research that i could find and what was showing in syslogs this was my best path forward, since most of my kernel panics were pointing to macvlan issues. In this process i also did some cleanup of old and unused dockers, updated all my dockers and plugins and for the most part, everything has been running smoothly. Until today....
I was transferring some files from my cache drive to my main PC using a direct 10gb connection between the two. About halfway through the transfer stopped and all webgui connections were unresponsive. I checked the display connected to the server and i was able to navigate somewhat, and pulled open the syslogs and found a mess of messages being written faster than i could read anything. Luckily i enabled "Write syslogs to flash" and it was able to capture all this, but there is so much there that i need help deciphering it.

 

Hopefully this is something that can be diagnosed before i pull the plug and start over from scratch. I have attached the diagnostics.zip from this crash, Looking through the logs, it appears that the issue started around 15:12:00 Today.

 

Thanks in advance!

When are the SSD trim or your pools scrub scheduled ?

There are PCIe errors affecting multiple devices

Sep 18 15:12:49 TheVault kernel: xhci_hcd 0000:01:00.0: AER: can't recover (no error_detected callback)
Sep 18 15:12:49 TheVault kernel: ahci 0000:01:00.1: AER: can't recover (no error_detected callback)
Sep 18 15:12:49 TheVault kernel: pci 0000:03:00.0: AER: can't recover (no error_detected callback)
Sep 18 15:12:49 TheVault kernel: igb 0000:05:00.0 eth0: PCIe link lost

 

Then

Sep 18 15:13:30 TheVault kernel: ahci 0000:01:00.1: AHCI controller unavailable!

 

Look for a BIOS update, you can also try updating to v6.11.0-rc5, newer kernel might help.

SSD trim is daily at 23:00, no cache pools setup just a single 2tb SSD for cache and 3 UD SSDs

Im on the second to last BIOS version, ill run an update today.

As far as the unraid version, is there anything else that i should try before upgrading again?

Nothing special.

Bios updated, and unraid updated to v6.11.0-rc5. So far there are less log entries, but at this time only time will tell.

Ill check back if i crash again. Thanks everyone!
