Server randomly freezing

Hi,

My Unraid server keeps randomly hard freezing and I’m really struggling to work out why. Diagnostics zip attached.

When it happens:

  • Web UI dies

  • SMB stops responding

  • Docker containers stop responding

  • SSH becomes unusable

  • Need to hard reboot

The latest freeze happened while I was using MusicBrainz Picard to retag/reorganise my music library over SMB.

I was fortunate enough to grab an htop screenshot just before it completely died. It showed:

  • load average over 600

  • very high smbd CPU usage

  • high shfs usage

  • RAM almost full

  • Jellyfin ffmpeg processes active

I originally thought Music Assistant was causing it because it had my music share added over SMB, but I removed that afterwards and it still froze again later.

No obvious kernel panics or disk errors that I could see.

Would appreciate if someone could take a look through the diagnostics and point me in the right direction.

Thanks
