This to address increased memory usage and other issues discovered with docker. Quote Link to comment

Increased memory usage doesn't seem like a reason to revert unless it's a memory leak and don't know what these "other issues" are... 3 Quote Link to comment
Niklas Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 I didn't notice any differences in memory usage. Quote Link to comment
ncceylan Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Can the automatic snapshot function of zfs be added in the follow-up? Similar to truenas, you can use timing snapshots in webgui, save snapshots and other functions. Quote Link to comment
craigr Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 I've noticed more memory being used and was not sure why. Still, I'm not so sure I want to revert to a much older patched Docker version. I just did a lot of work rebuilding and renaming the cache pool that holds my dockers and libvert when I converted it to ZFS. I'm not in the mood for something to go sideways after rebuilding my Dockers. I also intentionally nuked my libvert and started from scratch, though I suppose this update should not matter for VM's? I mean, is Docker going to go back to v23.x in unRAID 6.12.3? I'm always positive on upgrades, but this one has me concerned. That said, on 6.12.1 I do have this log issue that nobody answered about in the 6.12.1 thread. Will 6.12.2 address this? All that said, I guess I'm leaning towards upgrading to the downgraded docker. Until a couple weeks ago I only had 64GB of RAM and it was usually only using 60% or so unless I was doing intense things. Now I'm using 64GB at steady state without extra activities.

If it is the syslog file then you should look at the contents of that file to see if you have some sort of error message being continually repeated? Without knowing the answer to those questions nobody is going to be able to know if the update might have addressed your issue. 1 Quote Link to comment
craigr Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Well I just went from 6.12.1 to 6.12.2 and my server crashed again just like when I went from 6.12.0 to 6.12.1. Exact same thing: I now have a new IPMI event that matches: These two past upgrades are literally the only time this server has ever crashed. Quote Link to comment

Oh well.. 🥲 I've been having the same for a while now on my HP Microserver Gen10. Replacing the USB drive did not solve this. After I run chkdsk on a Windows system on this drive, it updates normally, although it doesn't find any problems with the drive. I'm curious to know if you have the same experience once you done that. Quote Link to comment

After going to 6.12.2 I'm back to this: I guess I will have to wait to see if anything explodes in size in /var/log because right now there is nothing abnormal and no error messages.

Without knowing the answer to those questions nobody is going to be able to know if the update might have addressed your issue. I think it might have been the FIle Activity addon log. The log bar graph was getting higher as I sat here again. I disabled File Activity and deleted its log and now it seems normal again. Has something changed with unRAID 12 that may have made that plugin incompatible? Because I've had it set the same way for a very long time. Quote Link to comment

NAStyBox Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 I'm pretty sure the answer is "yes", but I want to confirm. If I run the upgrade with 3 dockers and a VM active, nothing will be interrupted, correct? The reason I ask is the server shuts down for a few hours every night and then the smart home hub brings it back up via an outlet power cycle around 7:30AM. Quote Link to comment

Nothing will be interrupted, but of course you'll have to reboot for the upgrade to take effect. I'd want to be present during a first reboot after the OS is upgraded in case there is a problem. So if it just reboots on a schedule, will you be comfortable with assuming it works? 1 Quote Link to comment

Nah it won't change the recovery, lol. I was just confirming the upgrade thing because I have active DVR recordings at the moment, and it goes down at 3AM for a few hours after the last recording finishes. 1 Quote Link to comment
Ancient Wizard Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 I was having problems with Remote Shares not being written to and from by Radarr and Plex after the update to version 6.12.1. Rebooting the dockers did not help. To be doubly safe I backed up the flash drive before and after updating to 6.12.2. After reboot I manually restarted each of the dockers I wanted running on all 3 servers. My problems I had been having with the dockers are now gone. The docker downgrade is what I think solved my problem that simple reboots did not solve. Thank you for finding and fixing the problem with the docker version. It appears to be working very well again. Quote Link to comment
