Numerous crashes. Multiple per day

First Crash in a while. Looking for some suggestions.  Hoping this isn't hardwareorcrist-diagnostics-20230111-2133.zip

Looks like you had syslog mirrored to flash. Post it.

[mikesp18]

OK, sorry. syslog.7z

[trurl]

I hope you haven't been mirroring to flash since June.

 

I see these consecutive lines in log.

Jan 11 15:23:06 Orcrist root: Fix Common Problems: Warning: Syslog mirrored to flash ** Ignored
Jan 11 18:05:02 Orcrist kernel: microcode: microcode updated early to revision 0xf4, date = 2022-07-31

Was there a crash between these?

Also, please use zip instead of 7z in future. Nobody should have to install software just to help you.

[mikesp18]

I had an additional 2 crashes yesterday, 2/15/23. This time I've shaved down the syslogsyslog.zip and zipped it.  Any ideas?

Nothing logged between these timestamps, is that when crash occurred?

Unrelated, your appdata has files on disk6

The crashes keep on coming.  I cannot make it through the parity check after a crash at this point.  Web login doesn't work, and I cannot SSL into.  Direct KVM just gives a black screen.  Lights are on, and today ALL the disk access lights are on. The timing of the crashes seems a little random.  And I'm not really doing anything at the time.  Last night I went to bed with a the parity check running.  This morning it was crashed. I'll update the new logs.

This may sound silly, but check your CPU temps and that your CPU cooler is in good condition.
Coming out of the cool winter months, I often see stability issues related to heat from dirty coolers/bad thermal paste.  Works fine on cool days, but then on warmer days you get errors.

[mikesp18]

Fair enough.  I considered heat. I fact I took the top off the case just to make sure it's venting.  The HSF is not even hot to the touch. One of the peripheral cards is getting warm.  Maybe I'll add a fan to it.  Any good temperature loggers for Unraid?  I remember that there was one that was causing crashes before.  Thank you to everyone for help.  Even though I am frustrated, I've always appreciated the support from this community, especially a Non-IT guy like me ( I work in an ER, this isn't exactly what I do for a living, just hobby stuff  )

[samsausages]

It's a bit of stab in the dark, but I have had it happen to my own system in the spring.  Since then I always eliminate that variable, especially when going into spring & when it seems random.
if your thermal paste job is bad then it may result in a HSF that feels cold.  You'll know if it feels cold and your CPU temps are high.
I think I'm using:

Dynamix System Temp

[mikesp18]

Well, I guess I already had Dynamics system temp app running, I just never set up the sensors.

 

Quickly setting it up, Processor running at 56C, Motherboard at 28C. Those numbers seem fine. I'm honestly wondering if this isn't software, but maybe a bad power supply or something.  I don't see anything in the log when the crashes happen.

[samsausages]

56c sounds high if you're at idle.  If you have processes running, then 56c isn't bad.   

My intel 5960x idles around 35-40c and I'm overclocked by 1Ghz with upped vcore.  I top out at 70c under full load.  Cooler and CPU will make temps vary greatly as well.

[samsausages]

Try the CoreFreq plugin, you can use it to run a benchmark that will stress your CPU.  If it crashes or gets into the high 90's, you'll know.

Can do it from the "tools" menu and use Atomic Burn.
 

 

[mikesp18]

So, running Atomic Burn, I'm seeing temps that are pretty hot. Hitting around 85C even after reapply thermal paste.  Do you think this is a thermal shutdown issue? When I find the computer, the lights are still on and it has multiple disk access lights, but no response either headless with SSL or with directly connect KVM.
