Unraid 6.12.6 Woes: Server Freezes


Go to solution Solved by ClutchAviator,

Happy New Year, everyone!

For the last few weeks, I've been getting the short end of the Unraid stick!! It all started with the MOBO Bios update. I have had nothing but flawlessly working 6.11.5 up until a few weeks ago, when I decided to bring the BIOS firmware in line with the latest release. Well, that was the worst decision! I'd like to chase down random boot-up issues with Unraid, and I ended up replacing MOBO! Now, I am in the middle of upgrading my Parity drive to a larger one and then swapping a bad data drive. Every time I start a parity drive upgrade, Unraid keeps freezing to the point that only restarting or rebooting will make it work again. I've got a screen connected to the server, and even that becomes frozen, let alone trying to access the server over the local network! I've attached diganostic zip hoping someone will be able to help bring some sanity into this madness. 


Fixes I've tried so far without success,

1. Using a USB-C to RJ45 adapter (even tried multiple brands)

2. Different CAT6 cables

3. Docker NewOrk is already set as ipvlan
4. RTL8125 plugin (with the old MOBO)
5. Clean Unraid Setup

 

Please note that I swapped the old MOBO with the same make and model to make things a little less painful. I never had any issues with the old MOBO until I decided to do that dreadful bios upgrade!!

One more thing to note is that yesterday I installed an Iocrest SY-PEX40166 card to expand SATA ports. The system was solid, and I went through a 2 x 16TB and 1 x 18TB disk clear and data rebuild without issue. Suddenly, after installing SY-PEX40166 and adding 18TB and 2 SSD for cache pools, I went on to do the disk pre-clear, and the system started acting funny!

 

For now, I did ran Memtest and it has errors but also I took off SY-PEX40166 to see if that was what caused freeze-up!

Must have overlooked this.

 

You must not even attempt to run any computer unless memory is working perfectly. Everything goes through RAM. The OS and other executable code, your data, EVERYTHING.

 

The CPU can't do anything with anything until it is loaded into RAM.
