viskanic Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Dear Unraiders, Last month I've repurposed an old gaming PC as my Unraid media server. Before the switch to Unraid, the PC was running Windows 10 and was rock-solid, working for up to 30+ days without a reboot. Ever since I've moved to Unraid I've been having stability issues and wasn't able to go for a few days before the server unexpectedly rebooted triggering an "Unclean shutdown" and starting an "Automatic Correcting Parity-Check". I've upgraded the PC with a couple of Seagate Exos X20 18TB drives and two additional sticks of G.Skill Ripjaws V 16GB (same type and vendor as the ones already isntalled in the PC). At first I thought that the new RAM was causing problems, since I had no issues before, but after trying all sorts of things I'm getting a bit desperate. So far I've: Disabled the overclock on the CPU, now running with stock settings Disabled the XMP profile, now running with stock settings Plugged the USB into a different port Checked all data/power connections Booted the server with all RAM (old and new) installed Booted the server with only the old two sticks of RAM Booted the server with only the new two sticks of RAM Upgraded the OS from 6.12.4 to 6.12.6 Switched the "Docker custom network type" setting from "macvlan" to "ipvlan" Booted the server in Safe Mode Booted into Memtest86+, no errors found (tested only the old RAM - 15h with 3 successfull passes) Hardware: MB: MSI Z170A Gaming M3 CPU: Intel Core i5 6600k @ 3.5 GHz GPU: MSI Radeon R9 390 Gaming 8GB RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws V 32GB (4x 8GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 SSD: Samsung EVO 970 Plus 1TB HDD: 2x Seagate Exos X20 18TB PSU: Corsair RM 750X Software: OS: Unraid 6.12.6 Plugins installed: Appdata Backup CA Auto Turbo Write Mode CA Auto Update Applications CA Mover Tuning Community Applications Dynamix Auto Fan Control Dynamix File Manager Dynamix System Buttons Dynamix System Information Dynamix System Statistics Dynamix System Temperature Enhanced Log Viewer Fix Common Problems GUI Search Parity Check Tuning Tips and Tweaks Unassigned Devices Unassigned Devices Plus Unassigned Devices Preclear User Scripts Docker containers installed: Pihole Jellyfin Jellyseer Gluetun VNP qBittorrent Prowlarr Radarr x3 Lidarr Sonarr Bazarr Homarr MusicBrainz-Picard Navidrome VMs installed: Windows 10 with GPU passthrough Here is a list of the last crashes I've noted: 03.01,2024. 21:37 03.01.2024. 19:10 02.01.2024. 22:52 02.01.2024. 13:40 01.01.2024. 23:31 27.12.2023. 21:22 26.12.2023. 12:19 25.12.2023. 13:14 25.12.2023. 13:07 25.12.2023. 00:29 You can find the diagnostics ZIP and the Syslog from the last three weeks attached below. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you. adolf-syslog.log adolf-diagnostics-20240105-1352.zip Quote Link to comment
itimpi Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 You mention rebooting rather than crashing? Rebooting is almost invariably hardware - with most likely culprits being CPU cooling and/or PSU struggling. Quote Link to comment
viskanic Posted January 5 Author Share Posted January 5 Hi @itimpi, Thank you for your prompt reply. I used the word "reboot", because that is what happens. The system power cycles and starts again triggering an "unclean shutdown". I would use the term "crash" if I was able to catch an error of some sort, but I wasn't able to pin it down. CPU Cooling: The CPU is cooled by a be quiet! Dark Rock 3 (190W TDP), running at a comfortable 30-35 °C. Since the CPU is no longer overclocked it's running even cooler now. PSU: The PSU is a Corsair RM 750X and has 750W of available power. This is way more then what the system needs right now. What bothers me the most and makes the troubleshooting even harder is that I'm not experiencing the same issues under a different OS. As mentioned in my firs post the system has been rock-solid for years on Windows. If you could take a look at the provided logs, maybe you will notice something relevant. Your help is much appreciated 👍 Quote Link to comment
