Sudden performance issues

[christobaass]

I'm still in my 30 day trial and after some learning, things have mostly been better. I started having some performance issues, mostly related to Docker the past few days.

 

I started getting execution errors when restarting/ stopping/ starting containers, but the operations are usually successful. Then I started seeing "not available" in the update section for most containers that I stopped/ started. After stopping/ starting Docker and forcing updates, "not available" seems to go away. Memory usage has been a bit high, and tweaking some container settings helped, but I'm still getting execution errors all the time. And I know this isn't Plex support, but my db keeps needing to be optimized. It's on the cache and optimization is always fast, but it shouldn't need to be optimized so often. My appdata share is on prefer cache, as is my system share.

 

I plan on upgrading my RAM, too, just because I have the space for it and memory is cheap.

 

Any ideas what's going on? I'm probably doing something weird, since I'm an unRAID noob.

Server load is extremely high, reboot then monitor it so see if you can find the service causing that if it happens again.

 

Also a good idea to disable the mover log so it won't spam the log.

Thanks for your response. I used the Fix Common Problems plugin, cleared all the errors/ warnings, rebooted, and things seem to be much better.

 

I think a beta docker container (ErsatzTV), and too many download streams, were bugging things out.

Monitor the server load with 'top', looks to be climbing again.

I'm not sure what you mean by this. Top?

 

I just tried restarting a docker container, nzbget, and I received another execution server error. The container only stopped. I had to manually start it again.

Here are my diagnostics immediately after having issues connecting to the nzbget UI and seeing more of the same

Type 'top' in the console, top right corner you'll see the server load, monitor to see if you can find what's making this climb, ideally it should be in the single digits for most of the time.

Thanks. Everything is looking OK to me. I ditched nzbget for sabnzbd and haven't had any issues.
