January 11, 20251 yr I run unraid 7 currently. During 7.0.0 RC2 I received notifications regarding array errors. Checking the logs before these errors I saw "Unable to change power state from D3cold to D0" and similar with D3hot. The device this error referred to is the PCIe switch itself on the mobo (PEX 8724) that my LSI card is plugged into. After it happened on RC2 I rebooted and it never popped back up. Now that I'm on 7 release it keeps occurring, to the point where my drives aren't able to unmount when restarting. Anyways the plan is to update my bios, and then disable the following in the bios. -PCIe native control -PCIe aspm support -PCH PCIe aspm support -DMI aspm support -PCH DMI aspm support I'm curious if there's a way inside unraid to prevent this from happening before I'm able to sit with the machine. Also any other advice would be appreciated.
January 11, 20251 yr Author Update- I updated the bios. All the settings I mentioned were disabled already, I enabled pcie native control. I also disabled above 4g decoding and C.A.M which is asrocks version of resizable bar. I also switched the PCIe link speed from auto to gen3 (it's a Gen 5 slot) not sure if any of this matters but will monitor.
January 11, 20251 yr Community Expert you do this at the grub / kernel parmerter the option is "pcie_aspm=off" WebUI > Main > Flash > Syslinux options The green tab is your default boot enviroment:

Interestingly ASPM shows disabled when I run the LSPCI -vv command. But power management shows enabled with all the different D states
January 13, 20251 yr Author Update, so far it's been stable since I updated the bios and changed those settings. For anyone looking this is an asrock z690 Pro RS board, was on 18.00 on 20.01 now. Then the above mentioned bios changes.
January 21, 20251 yr Author For some reason 2 days ago the server went completely offline and I just noticed today.. unfortunately im not able to access the last log file as it seems the stable doesnt include that functionality and only provides the log file of the current boot. I got no notifications via discord which I have setup so not a clue what happened. Machine was still physically on so I had to hold the power button to shut it down...
