August 16, 201510 yr I am currently running 6.0.1 and I have found if I am running a preclear or rebuilding a drive as I am now, if I try to use the web interface to monitor the rebuild or preclear status then emhttp will go 100% cpu in top and the webpage will be unresponsive. There is nothing in the syslog to show anything has crashed are there any other logs that will shed any light as to what is happening. If I am not doing any preclears or things like that then I have not had the webgui crash. I can then issue a powerdown and have the system do a clean shutdown and come back up.
August 16, 201510 yr Author Given I have no web GUI now as I am Still waiting for disk rebuild is there a command for that or will running it after a reboot be ok
August 16, 201510 yr Community Expert Normally rebuilds or preclears will not keep you from accessing the webGUI. From the unRAID command line, type diagnostics ignore any error messages, and it will put the diagnostics zip file on your flash drive. You may be able to access your flash over the network if you have it shared.
August 16, 201510 yr Author I know its not normal but when emhttp goes 100% I can't access the web gui tower-diagnostics-20150816-2119.zip
August 16, 201510 yr Community Expert You have several plugins for applications that are available as dockers. The first step in diagnosing these sorts of system problems is to disable plugins by booting in SAFE mode.
August 18, 201510 yr Author This is diags file from safe mode reboot. Started parity check then was browsing gui went unresponsive emhttp at 100% in top. tower-diagnostics-20150818-1630.zip
August 22, 201510 yr Author So is there anything I can look into? Log doesn't show anything I do have a windows 10 machine that is causing the avahi invalid packets not sure that would be causing the problem tho.
August 22, 201510 yr Author I think something similar might be happening as per this thread http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=42197.0 although I have only seen my smb disappear once, I have also lost telnet access as well so it may be something network or not. syslog doesn't shed any light with no obvious errors reported at all.

It looks like you are running unRAID in a virtual machine. If you can replicate the behavior as a host, we can take a closer look, otherwise I would suggest posting in the Virtualizing unRAID forum.
August 22, 201510 yr Author I'll see what I can do. Is there anything I should be logging or collecting other than the diags if there are no errors showing in the syslog??
August 22, 201510 yr I'll see what I can do. Is there anything I should be logging or collecting other than the diags if there are no errors showing in the syslog?? Not that I can think of. I've never had this issue or been able to recreate this issue on any test system. If we can't recreate and there is nothing in the log, the next thing to examine is outside influences (plugins and running as a VM). So if you run as a physical host and the issue doesn't occur, then we know its something with your virtual environment. Keep in mind, we are using a very modern Linux kernel and we do not test running unRAID as a VM between releases. If something breaks because of that, we are reliant on the community to tell us and exactly what broke / how we can fix it. Without that information, we can't fix it. We don't prevent running unRAID as a VM, but that doesn't mean we officially support it. Many run unRAID as a VM just fine, which means this is probably just an issue with your setup, but you'll need to review your config with the community in the thread I linked you to for assistance. I have no VMware environment to test with. All my VMs run on unRAID as the host under KVM.
