bisk Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 I updated to 6.12.9 this evening and when I tried to start the array the server would become unresponsive or reboot. After rebooting the server, I reverted back to 6.12.8 and still had the same issue of the server freezing/rebooting when starting the array. Next I tried change the port that the USB Key was plugged into and also replacing the USB Key, but those didn't resolve the issue either. Not sure what's going on since I haven't really made any changes lately, so I'm assuming that this might be a potential hardware issue. I've attached a diagnostic and hopefully that can shed some light on the issue. homeserver-diagnostics-20240328-2004.zip Quote Link to comment
bisk Posted March 29 Author Share Posted March 29 Looks like the memtest completed and passed, so the memory looks good Quote Link to comment
Amane Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 (edited) Hi bisk I've seen you use a lot of disks with ZFS, this is just a guess, but I've seen bug reports with problems with ZFS after update to [6.12.9] *But there seem to be problems with a controller.. Have you tried a save boot? Greetings Edited March 29 by Amane Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Enable the syslog server and post that after a crash/reboot, in case it catches something. Quote Link to comment
bisk Posted March 29 Author Share Posted March 29 I enabled syslog export to the USB key and attached that. Unfortunately I'm not able to collect another diagnostic file since the server freezes a few seconds after booting without even starting the array. syslog Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Log does not show the array starting, so not much we can see, try starting the array in maintenance mode, if it still crashes it's likely hardware related. Quote Link to comment
bisk Posted March 29 Author Share Posted March 29 (edited) OK, the machine was responsive long enough in Safe Mode so that I could click Start, but rebooted while starting the array. syslog Edited March 29 by bisk Quote Link to comment
Solution bisk Posted March 30 Author Solution Share Posted March 30 Thanks for the assistance. I was never able to get the system to stay up long enough to start the array in maintenance mode. I replaced the motherboard, but was still having the same issue. Thankfully I still had an old AM4 CPU kicking around, so I put that into the system and everything looks stable now. Time to RMA my 18 month old 5700G CPU. Part of my troubleshooting yesterday I replaced my USB, but that one seems to have issue dropping when starting the array (diagnostics attached). I've tried multiple USB ports too. I bought a new key, but now I'm getting an error that I've replaced my USB key twice over the past year and I can't update the key for the new USB key. I opened a support case to hopefully allow me to update the key to either the new USB key or the original good USB that is now blacklisted. homeserver-diagnostics-20240330-1248.zip 1 Quote Link to comment
