February 5, 20179 yr Please help me. I can't take anymore hard resets!!! I recently upgraded my ssd cache and went ahead and threw in a new processor at the same time. You can see my build in my signature. Ever since then, I've been plagued with problems. Most problematic and annoying, my system freezes up at least once a day. When this happens, I can't get it to respond at all... no telnet, no webgui, network shares are gone... nothing. I hooked up a monitor to the machine, and it gives me no clues or indicators. It just has the Tower: prompt. The only way to get anything is to hold the power button and reboot. This, obviously, starts a parity check. Today, I guess I caught it between the "problem" and the "freeze" because Fix Common Problems gave me a "Out of Memory" error as well as a "Call Traces" error. It's also worth noting that when my machine is doing specific tasks, namely running Par2 tasks, I can have my CPU load jump up to 33+. Needless to say, it's taxing on my system and everything slows. I"ve attached my diagnostics that I've managed to capture before rebooting. Can you please help me? I'm runnin 6.2.4 with a few docker containers as well as a slew of plugins Docker Plex by linuxserver Radarr by linuxserver sabnzbd by linuxserver Plugins Community Applications CA Auto Update CA Backup/Restore CA Cleanup Appdata CouchPotato from PhAzE denyhosts from docgyver Dynamix Active Streams Dynamix Cache Directories Dynamix S3 Sleep Dynamix System Buttons Dynamix System Information Dynamix System Stats Dynamix WebGui Fix Common Problems Nerd Tools Open Files from dlandon ProFTPd from SlrG Sonarr from PhAzE Transmission from PhAzE tower-diagnostics-20170205-1312.zip
February 5, 20179 yr Ultimately, at some point the OOM killer is killing off processes that aren't used often enough but are critical to the operation of the system. 4 gig is pushing it for the actual apps you've got running (forget about the "utility" plugins) upgrade to 8 Gig. That's the real functional minimum once you've got apps up and running. 4 Gig is enough for 1-2, but not what your doing. It is "find" that's at least started invoking the OOM's You can disable dynamix folder caching to try and get a little more life out of the current system, but upgrading is your best option
February 5, 20179 yr Author Thanks for the quick response. I had a feeling I was low on RAM. My system seems to idle at 1.8 gig used, 1.4 gigs cached and the remainder free. I'll hop on Amazon tonight and grab some more.
February 12, 20179 yr Author So I purchased 8 gb of ram total (maxed out), and got rid of several utility plugins. The random freezes are still occurring, though! I used Troubleshoot Mode from Fix Common Problems to grab logs. I had a random reboot at 5 something AM and another freeze up just after 9 AM on these logs. Can someone please have a look? tower-diagnostics-20170212-0857.zip syslog.txt

It's most definitely not RAM. I have 32Gigs of RAM and getting the same exact thing. Whole system just becomes unresponsive after a few hours and have to perform a hard reboot. Upgraded from whatever the newest 6.2 was to 6.3.1.

You've got a ton of plugins / packages being installed. To figure this out, you're going to have to restart in Safe mode and then see what happens. If the system becomes stable, then its its odds on going to be one of the PhAzE plugins that is causing this and/or denyhosts. The call traces pretty much begin at the start of the array. You should probably also upgrade to 6.3.1
