Hi there,

 

I need your help, I can't get it worked by myself.

Unraid v6.11.5
CPU : AMD 3700x
RAM : 32Gb
Cache : 1To

All start with Docker service failed. I understaind fast that the image where growing annormaly. I try tro recreate docker.img once, the I map directly my cache hard drive and do a fresh install of my docker containers. I thought all where OK, but I meet this new Out of Memery error and I feel like docker image keep going to grow.

Regarding to out of memory error, it shut down Docker and VM service. I try to clean plugins and VM in order to eliminate this. I try to put memory argument to my 2 docker containers ( with --memory=xG in docker container advanced settings) but I can still see my RAM growing.

I find this command line to find what service take ram and how much but I don't know what to do next with rsync services :

For now the situation looks stabilised.

I delete /user/system/docker/ folder manually and change back docker settings to XFS image. I reinstall Plex docker only (for now) and it look to work fine.

Lets see if everything keep going well

Hi there,

 

I change the title of post because the out of memory error is gone. But I still have troubles with my docker image growing. I have onely Plex and Transmission docker. I put 100GB for the docker image and it's now at 95% full after 24hours runing.

Here is some screens.

Edited June 10, 20233 yr by talard
add container size

What actual current docker img file size ?

BTW, container size show usage ~30.1 GB. Not sure img file size reduce if actual usage reduce.

The image file size is 100GB.

 

I had to delete then recreate the docker image because it ran to 100%. For now the image is 2% full and look stable but I don't know why, at some point it start to grow and getting full.

 

I put logs limit argument in both container to see if it can help (--log-opt max-size=50m --log-opt max-file=1) but container calculation show that it's not logs that take all this space but something else with plex.

Edited June 10, 20233 yr by talard

Until now since my last delete/creation of new docker file, everything is OK. It still 2% full.

What is really wired is the 100% usage of the 100GB docker image but with container calculation their is only 30GB.

 

Let's see what happen next.

The image file size is 100GB

Rarely does a docker.img file need to be larger than 20GB.  Even with a lot of docker containers, this is sufficient. 100GB is definitely excessive and indicates configuration problems somewhere.  For example, I have 15 docker containers with only 12 GB used in the 20GB docker.img file.

 

If you keep needing to increase the size of docker.img and usage within the file keeps growing even when you add no new containers, it is almost certain you have one or more containers improperly configured and they are writing data into docker.img instead of to an array, cache/pool or unassigned devices location.  The  most common offenders are file download apps (Deluge, Transmission, the *arrs, etc.) , backup apps, media management apps (Plex, emby, jellyfn), etc.

 

A good way to find potential offenders is to click on the Container Size button and look for containers that are unusually large.  Some are 2-3GB in size and this is normal for that container.  Other are much smaller.  For example, my Plex container  is only 334 MB in size and the Krusader container is 2.38GB.  Both are normal.  If you see one or more that appear to be unusually large, ask for help in the support thread for that container.

 

Docker.img is only meant to be the storage location for the docker container images and not their data.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

 

Total agree but I do that because I couldn't debug instantly.

 

As you can see I use both (transmission and plex). I don't change the configuration and all work fine for at least a year. You can see folders mapping in my 1rst post and everything is mapped to my storage (at least pre-configured template docker variables)

I finnaly found the issue. I found the origine thanks to unraind tools>process section.

Plex was blocked on transcoding task and I don't know why but even with /transcode folder mapping on array, it use docker image. I delete the video file and recreate docker image and everything is OK since then.

 

Thanks Vr2lo and Hoopster for your comments.
