August 4, 20241 yr Hi All, I've had an issue for at least the last several months with my unRaid system hanging seemingly randomly. It seems to happen more frequently when the system is under load but sometimes it'll just happen out of nowhere. Sometimes it will hang three or four times in one day; Sometimes it'll go a month or more without issues. I've tried doing a memtest with no problems reported, checked all the cable connections, and even switched out the power supply and all the power cables. I changed Docker to use ipvlan. When the system hangs, I can't ping it or access the webUI. I have a piKVM hooked up and if I start up in CLI mode the screen just stays black when it's crashed. If I had booted into UI mode and it hangs, I get a glitchy flickery screen. The only way to get the system back up is to do a hard power off or reset. I had the system pulled out to add a new drive on Friday. The attached logs are from Friday when it was powered back on through today. Hopefully someone can see something I'm not in there. Thanks in advance. syslog-previous syslog (2) Edited August 4, 20241 yr by supercore23

I waited about ten minutes and then sent a reset button press.
August 4, 20241 yr Community Expert Post a new log if it crashes again after using the setting above.

August 8, 20241 yr Author Four days of uptime with no crashes even under load. This seems to have fixed the issue. Thanks JorgeB for the assist. Marking as solved.
