October 10, 20169 yr OK so I had to restart unraid yesterday to do some system changes. My dynamic guide got stuck on starting services again on startup. What was interesting is that when stopping the array it also hung on stopping services. I'm not sure if this is something that will be very easy to debug due to it just being a java script issue I would presume? Also I've noticed my vms take for ever to start now. When you click start there is a good minute or so before the vm bios screens show. This is the same on seabios and ovmf but it does take longer on seabios

October 10, 20169 yr Author There's nothing in the diagnostics about the vm slow down and the dynamic functions do run just the java script doesn't update the page properly so there is no diagnostic information to upload. I can upload it anyway if it may be useful so as there's no logs I'm not sure how useful it would be?

I can upload it anyway if it may be useful so as there's no logs I'm not sure how useful it would be? Not clear what you are saying here. Are you saying that if you go to Tools - Diagnostics, you don't get a page that lets you download the diagnostics?
October 10, 20169 yr Author No I do. What I am saying it the dynamic issue is by the looks of things a java script issue. The array and everything else start fine but the page sits at starting services. If I refresh the page everything is online and running. As this issue isn't a Linux specific issue it does not create any log entries that would be useful to determine why My vms take up to a minute to boot but once started they run lightnings fast. I have check the logs for the vms and for the system and there are no relevant log entries besides the normal ones so again no indicator as to why the issue occurs. In short I can post a log file and do have one. There are simply no log entries relating to the mentioned issues as they are not events that would cause one, thus I didn't think it relevant to include log files that don't help. If something else in my diagnostic would help them im all for it but I couldn't think of anything
October 15, 20169 yr Also I've noticed my vms take for ever to start now. I'm also experiencing this Actually, mine seem to start slower as well now that you mention it
October 15, 20169 yr Author Also I've noticed my vms take for ever to start now. I'm also experiencing this Are you talking a few seconds or more? Mine are taking up to 2 minutes just to show the OVMF boot post, seabios is up to 3 or 4 minutes As a point of interest my VM's are located on my cache drive which in an NVMe drive - just in case something weird has occurred Since more people are having the issue i have attached my diagnostics and the server has been up over 5 days so it may shed light on something? I've had no issues other then that besides a mouse disconnecting from my SeaBios vm when left idle for too long (keyboard on that vm remains attached) Jamie archangel-diagnostics-20161015-1107.zip
October 15, 20169 yr Ok, I paid attention this time and it definitely is taking a couple of mins to launch VMs. Also, within my VMs my PC will keep freezing every 20 seconds or so - e.g. if I'm typing it will freeze and the last letter I'm typing say 'o' will appear on the screen as ooooooooooooooooooooooo which is very annyoing dzmm-diagnostics-20161015-1236.zip

Pain in the butt to run terminal command within it and login in general.
October 18, 20169 yr More testing my Windows VM is doing it too. Array starts and webui hangs as it's booting the VM. Did notice a bit of a quirk. Same hang with 4 minutes before VM starts, reverted by copying back the bz files with same issue. Maybe a kernel change or QEMU versioning problem? unraid-box-diagnostics-20161017-2324.zip

I noticed if I manually kill my plex docker the process speeds up.
October 21, 20169 yr Interesting. Perhaps a kernel bug that was squashed. I never witnessed this bug myself, but it may have been hardware specific.
