TODDLT Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Does anyone notice anything unusual about this Smart Report? I was creating an ISO file on the drive and it was hanging up really bad. IE the Image Burn software would "stop responding" and then start up again. I think it was due to disk access, not a software issue. I don't know if the problem was where I was reading from or writing too. However, even accessing the disk share to bring up the directory seems to hang up. though as I wrote this, I also tried to access another disk share and it hung up the same way, but eventually came through. unmenu is also hanging a bit, some of the pages time out Memory is about 95% used. Do I need more than 4GB? Why would that much be in use? I am pre-clearing a new drive also, would that make the rest of the server slow down? wouldn't expect it too, but is it using the memory? it is in the post read stage, about 80% complete.

Joe L. Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 The drive looks fine. My older server has 512 Meg of ram and works perfectly fine. If you have 4Gig, it is also sufficient. Linux will use ALL the memory you give it to buffer what has been read from the disks. In pre-clearing, you are accessing every block on the drive. If it is a 2TB (2000Gb) drive, you need 2000Gb of RAM to cache it all. It you have less than 2000Gb of RAM, the least recently-used memory blocks in the buffer cache are freed and re-used again and again. But don't feel bad, if you watch a 30Gig Blu-ray movie, you'll also use all the RAM you have in an attempt to buffer it. Again, it does not matter, as the buffer cache simply re-uses the least-recently used blocks as you view your movie. You can have other issues, but since you did not post a system log, and my psychic skills pretty poor, you'll have to get guidance from someone who is more psychic, or more familiar with the hardware you are using and how you are using it. You did not even tell us the version of unRAID you are using, or if you have any add-ons running. here is an analogy: My car won't start. What part do I need to order to be able to start it? Oh yes, it is blue with a 6 cylinder engine. It cost me over $40 the last time I filled the gas tank. (See, I've given you almost as many clues. How are your psychic skills?) Joe L. Link to comment

OK, I deserved that.. sort of. I know to post syslog's and should have done it. I guess I was focused on the specific drive and the smart report. Anyway, here it is. And as for what version, it is 4.7... which is at least in my signature so I didn't "totally" forget to mention it Also have unMENU (mentioned above) and most of the plugins that work with it, UPS monitor. That's about it. Thanks much for any input. Appreciate the help! syslog_2012-02-18.txt Link to comment

TODDLT Posted February 22, 2012 Author Share Posted February 22, 2012 Looks a lot like issues with NFS to me. (constantly re-starting itself) I've never used NFS on unRAID, so I've no experience to guide you. Does not look like a physical disk problem to me. This was me trying to get NSF to work (with no luck). I was making changes to the nfs line in the share, so it probably started a number of times. I will probably try a straight copy the that disk this weekend and see how it does. Link to comment
