Unraid server on old hw crashes - 6.12.6

Featured Replies

Hi and Merry Christmas to you all :)
I have been running an Unraid server for about 2 months on some old hw. I'm having trouble getting the server "stable", it crashes every couple of days and I have not been able to figure out what causes this. 
When the server crashes I'm not able to ssh in to the server and the WEB interface is not working.
Before I installed unraid I ran the memtest, did the preclear of the disks. Everything seamed ok.
First I installed the 6.12.4 version and had some random crashes every other day. Last week I upgraded to 6.12.6. But the same behavior continues. The server is not under any heavy load. 
I have a couple of docker instances running - plex, jellyfin, pihole. Last thing I have changed to day (after the last crash this morning), was to change the "Docker custom network type" from macvlan to ipvlan
I have no prior experience with unraid. So any help would be much appreciated.

Will do, but do you mean enable a "Remote" syslog server or just "Mirror syslog to flash" ?

Either would fo but mirror to flash is easiest.

I have had the "Mirror syslog to flash" enabled for some time.. I have two files in the flash drive /boot/logs

"syslog-previous" file from yesterday - was last modified 2023--12-25 17:26

and "syslog" file from today - was last modified 2023-12-26 10:53

 

Is this the files you mean?

Your system seems to be experiencing Macvlan related crashes which are known to eventually crash the server.   As mentioned in the release notes you should either switch docker to using ipvlan, or if you want to continue using Macvlan make sure that Bridging is disabled for eth0.

@JorgeB & @itimpi, Thank you very much for the quick reply.

 

I will use ipvlan and see if it resolves my problem.
