Hi folks,

Looking to get some help/ideas on a problem I'm having with my unRAID setup.  I'm running 6.2 beta21 and have three virtual machines setup. CentOS 6.7, Ubuntu (latest), and a Windows Server.  I seem to be having trouble where using the VMs will cause the system to hang and I'll have to press the reset button on my case to reset the system and get it stable again.

 

Some observations I've made:

If I try to browse the directory where VMs are stored, the command line will hang and not return the contents.

I cannot kill the qemu processes to terminate the VMs

I cannot kill the VMs via "force stop" in the GUI, it eventually fails stating it can't kill the process running the VM.

 

When this behavior begins (which seems to happen when attempting to anything with the VMs), it causes the GUI to hang and takes all of my shares offline.

 

I'm perfectly fine with deleting all of the VMs, but since 2 of the 3 of them are on auto-start, I can't seem to get to a point where they can be deleted or re-configured to not auto-start.

 

Has anyone seen this before and if so, how did you sort through the issue?

I had the same problem. How much ram does your system have and how much ram do your VMs use?

 

EDIT: Does your system crash immediately after starting the VMs?

My system has 16GB of RAM and I don't think I've over provisioned the RAM for the VMs, but I suppose I could be getting close once things start getting used.

 

System does not crash immediately, usually only after I try accessing the virtual machine tab in the GUI or by trying to browse the directory housing the VM's via CLI.

 

EDIT: I was able to get the system back up and disable auto start via the WebUI, rebooted again and then deleted the virtual machines. 

Hi,

 

Did you ever resolve this issue?

I have Unraid 6.2 and with one VM running Ubuntu 14.04. I have had experienced instability of the Dynamix web gui when working with the VM (Starting/Stopping/Changing settings).

I now have a situation where the GUI will not load despite several reboots of the Unraid server. The VM is also not accessible.

 

The docker is running with ownCloud, Plex and Squeezebox all running and the Unraid shares are accessible.

 

What can I do to get the GUI running again and hopefully restore access to the VM?

 

BR
