January 17, 20188 yr Was wondering if Unraid would write important debug information on to the console/serial port. If so, it might be possible to read it using a raspberry pi & then be constantly logged. Idea is to use this interface to debug if things are not reachable via the network & get some better insight on why the system is not responding or went into a bad state. Are there better ways.. just in case that I am not aware, to get logs after we lose IP connectivity ?
January 17, 20188 yr Spit balling: reconfigure syslog.cfg to output instead to the serial port and restart syslogd. Downsides that I see though is that any diagnostics you grab won't include the syslog redirect a tail of the syslog to the serial port Investigate splunk / graylog apps.

Ideally a mouse also and then boot in GUI mode.
