May 5, 20251 yr For the past 9 months I've been trying to track down the reason my server will randomly restart. Before the restart there doesn't seem to be any log warnings or issues, just normal operating and then the startup log messages. It is an unclean shutdown, but usually the array wont start because one of the NVME disks isn't found. I need to power off the computer for a few moments and then turn it back on for the NVME to be detected again. I've run SMART checks on the NVME and nothing seems to be wrong with it. I've tried replacing the PSU and PSU cables, I've run memtest86 for days and replaced the RAM anyways, I've run OCCT system stability test for 12 hours with no problems. Uptime can be anywhere between 12 hours to 45 days (when I restarted for an update). Does this seem like a MB issue? Any other things I can do to diagnose and test? bacchus-diagnostics-20250505-1239.zip syslog-192.168.1.69.log
May 5, 20251 yr Community Expert Random restarts are almost always a hardware issue, since it's a Ryzen CPU, see this: https://forums.unraid.net/topic/46802-faq-for-unraid-v6/page/2/#findComment-819173

Global C-state is already disabled, I just changed Power supply idle current from auto to the recommended. Also added the positive 4 curve optimizer adjustment. Edited May 5, 20251 yr by Nick2Smith

May 14, 20251 yr Community Expert If you have multiple sticks try using the server with just one, if the same try with a different one, that will basically rule out bad RAM.
