Evening all, can anyone offer any advice on trying to diagnose these 100% spikes on CPU and Ram usage i've recently started experiencing please. Also noticed tonight all discs were spun up at the same time. Seems to happen at least daily, sometimes more often, I only notice it when using Plex as its kills the streaming. Machine specs: 

 

I7-11700k

32GB DDR4

11HDD

5SSD

 

Running a number of dockers the most intense being Plex, and 2 VM's - Home Assistant and a Windows machine for Blue Iris (records direct to dedicated cache drive)

 

I downloaded the logs whilst the issue was present if that helps

 

Thankyou in advance.

Does it get better if you shutdown the CCTV VM?

I've stopped the VM on a few occasions and that seemed to return the system to normal. However last night I saw the same spikes with the VM already shutdown. Spike generally lasts for a sustained 2-10mins.

Try to get new diags during the problem but with the VM shutdown.
