I installed the latest Beta, had it working great for about a week. All of a sudden, doing anything regarding mounting unassigned drives crashes/locks up the webgui. Only way Ive been able to get it back up is a full restart of the server. Im at work and can SSH into the server just fine, and I found the ps -ef command from another thread, but im unsure of what process is involved in mounting the disks, and if killing it will bring the webgui back. Does anyone know the process name/ description for mounting NTFS drives from the command ps -ef?

 

Frankly im at a point where I just might wipe and reinstall UNRAID. The webgui seems to crash if you just look at it wrong.

 

full disclosure, this is my first unraid install and foolishly went with the beta, also my first time really delving into linux. so rolling back to the latest release might be my best bet on resolving this or no?

Probably best to start with the current stable version, v6.1.9.  The process that mounts is mount, but I doubt that is what is hanging (although it could be, if a drive's file system is badly corrupted).  The C column of the ps report shows a number related to CPU usage, if that helps.  It's generally 0 or no more than single digits, unless very busy.

 

When there's general system instability, it's always a good idea to run a long Memtest (multiple passes), just to be sure you can trust your RAM.

 

And you can try starting in Maintenance mode and testing the file systems on the data drives, see Check Disk File systems.
