Twice in the last 3 or 4 days i've gone to access my unraid box (one time accessing a network share, the other trying to load Plex content) and found it powered off without my intervention.

We haven't had any issues with any other devices so I don't believe it's due to power outages. I've had another PC on the same electrical circuit running all day unaffected. 

 

I looked through the diagnostics export but I can't see any indicators about errors or a crash.

I've attached the file in case anyone can spot something I haven't. Cheers in advance

 

Can anyone think of any reason why it would be turning itself off inexplicably?

Enable the syslog server and post that next time it happens, that should show if a shutdown is being initiated or if the server is just powering off due to some hardware issue, like a bad PSU.

I'm a bit confused about what the syslog should look like.

 

I think i've configured it to save persistent logs to one of my shares - but again i can't see anything obvious as to why the server is shutting down. 

 

I have replaced the PSU with a brand new one. The server is no longer powering off - but it does randomly become unresponsive on the network.

You have a lot of call traces in your syslog.  These usually indicate some sort of hardware issue.  When enough call traces pile up, they eventually result in the server becoming unresponsive.

 

I am not expert enough to tell you what is causing these call traces (perhaps someone else can point you in the right direction), but, there are a lot of them.

Happened again this morning.

 

Syslog shows me disabling dockers and then slowly restarting them to see if there was anything jumping out in the logs. Nada. I then went out and came back a couple hours later to find it fully unresponsive again. Had to hard reboot to get it to respond.

Thanks for this link. 

 

I've set the "Power Supply Idle Control" to "typical current idle" as per the link. I'll test and see how it goes.
