Unraid Slow Responsiveness

[vcadm]

I am on a new install, Dell R730XD, and have been running into some issues.  At boot periodically having issues with what seems like the usb drive not being found.  Reboot once or twice and it comes up.  When it comes up, sometimes it comes up with a "Tower: " prompt and no IP address on the system.  I attempt to login with the root user/pass that I setup and it doesn't work.  I end up rebooting and eventually I get the system up and running.  Once I get the system up and running, I see long wait times on docker and vm manager starting up.  Causing real slow web browsing.  Eventually, they do load but still have some slow or sluggishness on the system.  Below is the hardware that I am running:

 

Dell R730XD - Dual 2698v4 processors with 128GiB of memory

 - Sabrent - Quad Drive NVMe to PCIe 4.0x card

  - In Slot 6, an x16 slot, with Slot Bifurcation turned on 4x4x4x4

   - Pools

    - Cache Pool

     - nvme0n1 and nvme1n1 - configured in Cache Pool (configured for redundancy)

    - SSD Cache Pool

     - 2 SAS SSD 1.9TB drives (no protection using all 4TB)

    - Unassigned Devices

     - nvme2n1 (only 2 partitions created so far)

       - vm-storage-pool - 700GB - using for Virtual Machines

        - pdwvcadc01 - 2 cpus (cpu21/61) and 8GB of Ram (2019 AD Domain Controller)

          - OS Drive - /mnt/disks/vm-storage-pool/domains/pdwvcadc01/vdisk1.qcow2

           - VMDK converted to qcow2

        - pdwvcadc02 - 2 cpus (cpu21/61) and 8GB of Ram (2019 AD Domain Controller)

          - OS Drive - /mnt/disks/vm-storage-pool/domains/pdwvcadc02/vdisk1.qcow2

            - VMDK converted to qcow2

        - pdlvcapp02 - 4 cpus (12/52 and 13/53) 8GB of Ram (newly installed VM, nothing really running on it yet)

          - OS Drive - /mnt/disks/vm-storage-poo/domains/pdlvcapp02/vdisk1.img

            - Built with Unraid VM Manager

         - BlueIris - 4 cpus (22/62 and 23/63) 16GB of Ram (newly installed VM on Blue Iris running yet but will be)

           - OS Drive - /mnt/disks/nvme2n1p2

             - Built with Unraid VM Manager

       - Blue Iris - 100GB - OS drive for Blue Iris VM

     - nvme3n1 

       - Not using currently but has a partition on it

 - Quadro P600 card in one of the half height riser slots

 - 2 SAS SSD 1.9TB drives (rear of box)

 - 2 10TB Parity Drives

 - 4 10TB Data Drives

 

Docker Manager

docker vDisk location

 - /mnt/user/system/docker/docker.img

Default appdata storage location:

 - /mnt/cache/appdata

 

VM Manager

Libvirt storage location:

 - /mnt/cache/system/libvirt/libvirt.img

Default VM Storage Path:

 - /mnt/disks/vm-storage-pool/domains

Default ISO storage path:

 - /mnt/ssd-cache/isos

 

Networking

 - I currently have my 2 1gig interfaces in 802.3ad and have the switch configured for it as well.

  - Default network is - 192.168.12.0/22 with 192.168.12.1 being the gateway

   - BlueIris and pdlvcapp02 running of this one.

  - Vlan added to interface

   - VLAN 10 - 192.168.0.0/23 192.168.0.254 being the gateway

    - pdavcadc01 and 02 are running off this vlan

 

Let me know if there are any questions.  I may have some items to clean up because I had started doing things one way on this rebuild and realized I wanted to go a different route.
