running out of memory

Featured Replies

Hi, I have a Dell Wyse running latest Unraid 7.2.3. The error "running out of memory" also occured on 7.2.2. After running smoothly some hours the unraid computer is not reachable anymore (neither by Unraid Connect). After some hourse (4-5h) the computer wakes up again and becomes responsive again.

I sometime recognized high CPU load. This occured first time after I installed Immich. Then I reduced in the Immich docker the resources availabe to immich to keep unraid alive, even it Immich needs a lot of resources. Now all my pictures are in Immich and there should be no additional workload on immich as all pics are worked on with machine learning / face recognition, now new pics are added (or only 2 a day). Immich has no access to CPU 0 (from the 4 existing ones) this should help to keep unraid alive. But I thought as this is running in docker it should not lead to a "running out of memory"?

Maybe this is not even connected to Immich.

Attached my diagnostics file, hope this gives some hints to one of wizards here :-)
Thanks for your support and happy xmas!

Best, Michael

What is reporting that? Not seeing out of memoty messages in the syslog

What did you restrict? To how much? You have containers stopping/starting frequently.

8GB is low for anything using ML.

yes, sorry for not mentioning, I get the error message from "fix common problems". The heavy Machine learning I do via my MacMini, so Immich is handing over 1 pic after another. This works well. But now no more heavy lifting on immich but still these "Unraid timeouts"...

If Immich runs ML on unraid it doesn't matter whether it's for 1 pic or 10000, loading the models will still take the same amount of RAM.

That's not visible in the posted diags.

ok, then I guess I have to wait until it happens again and re-post my diagnostics file then, right? I guess nothing showed up as I did a reboot after the last incident for the Unraid update...
And fyi, in Immich you have the option to use ML on Unraid directly or from a remote computer. I have chosen the remote option, so Immich workload was small. And I do not want to teach you at all, just to clarify :-) Thanks for your support, I come back when it happens next time.

This is the likely answer even if you're offloading ML.
