Hi there, since the beggining of my unraid journey, some 5 years ago maybe, i have a regular problem : it freeze
(my main VM freeze, no response anymore. No acces to unraid WebGUI and no response to ping)

Sometimes in just 1 or 2 days, sometimes it can take a month or two

I was motivated to activate syslog this time and it happened again yesterday at approx 18:40
I'm attaching a diagnostic file, in the Log folder, there's a syslog_full file from my USB key added to the archive

This is a really annoying problem that I should have fixed a long time ago, but i was too lazy and too busy

 

Optionnaly, i have a second problem due to this regular freeze, every time i restart, my cache drives now tell me they're unmoutable
Usually i just unassign them and start/stop array + reassign, but this time, they're not cooperative anymore

(i mounted them and made a copy of the content with a cp -a cmd)
I tried a btrfs check and it tells me that everything's ok (oh really ?)
Could i "just" format them and copy back the files ?

Thank you very much !

Unfortunately, there's nothing relevant logged, this can also be a hardware issue, one thing you can try is to boot the server in safe mode with all docker containers/VMs disabled, let it run as a basic NAS for a few days, if it still crashes it's likely a hardware problem, if it doesn't start turning on the other services one by one, including the individual docker containers. 

Thanks JorgeB!
I was afraid of this kind of response
I'm going to look if there is a tool to send me logs from the hardware.

 

Regarding my optional question, could you tell me if it will work like that please? ^^

(the key point is "is cp -a" enough ? I don't remember what cmd i used some years ago to make a backup of my cache)
I would like to take advantage of this opportunity to upgrade the FS to BTRFS Encrypted (actually simple BTRFS)

 

Thanks again

Missed that question, first I would recommend upgrading to latest, since you are on an ancient version, then post the output from

btrfs fi show

 

Of course, it's on my to-do list as soon as possible but I'm dreading this update, like many of those who have the same version as me that we come across on many forums

This said, it can be now or never, since my dockers don't work anymore currently

I'll be doing that probably this Saturday and post the output you asked

 

Thank you JorgeB

Hi JorgeB !

Sorry to have you wait, i did an upgrade to 6.12.10 (choice was this one or the 7.0.0, but it's too soon for this one and for me )
And i must say, if it stay like this, it's a wonder ^^

My server never booted this fast, without network error, it mounted the cache pool no problem and all is running ok ^^
Marvellous, thank you

 

I'll keep an eye on it and will do an upgrade to 6.12.15 when ok

Thank you again
