March 13, 20233 yr Hey forum, posting here as suggested by the Fix Common Problems plugin. My server seems to be having hardware problems and I can't figure out the cause of the issue. My server will either spin down the array or freeze completely every 30-60 minutes, any ideas? Rather new to Unraid and servers in general, can't read the syslog at all. tower-diagnostics-20230313-1952.zip
March 13, 20233 yr Community Expert Enable the syslog server to see if catches something but based on the description it looks more like a hardware issue.
March 13, 20233 yr Author Syslog server doesn't seem to be picking anything up, very confused as 95% of my hardware is almost brand new. Starting to get a little concerned lmao
March 13, 20233 yr Community Expert One thing you can try is to boot the server in safe mode with all docker/VMs disabled, let it run as a basic NAS for a few days, if it still crashes it's likely a hardware problem, if it doesn't start turning on the other services one by one.
March 14, 20233 yr Author So I've done what you suggested, no crashes or freezes after server has been running for 8 hours. Parity-sync is at 50% when it never usually gets past 10-15%. I'd say at this stage it's a pretty good guess to say it's a docker or plugin I have installed. Thanks for the suggestion, I will do what you suggested and turn everything back on 1 at a time to pin point what's causing issues.
March 15, 20233 yr Author Solution So I let my parity-sync finish and started up my dockers one at a time, everything ran fine until I started the Plex Docker. About 30 minutes after starting the Plex Docker my server crashed. Uninstalled Plex and removed it completely, installed the binhex-PlexPass Docker instead and haven't seen any issues since.
