fnwc Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 (edited) Hi, My unraid (v6.7.2) server, which has been running well until the other day, it completely stopped responding. I attempted to reboot it and it would sometimes get stuck on the "loading bzroot" stage. Other times it would seeming throw an exception. I have no idea what the green blocks on the monitor are: I've tried a couple of things: Ran memtest, passed Copied a known backup flash copy from a month ago that I know works (v6.7.2) I'm using an old MobileLite G2, I replaced the card with a new Sandisk Extreme PLUS 32GB SDHC Replaced the MobileLite with a Sandisk Cruzer Glide 32GB Tried downloading and 6.8.2 clean format, copying my config from my known "good" copy Tried downloading and 6.8.2 clean format, copying my config from my known "good" copy, only selective files/folders: Sometimes it will actually boot to the login screen, but it soon throws some kind of exception. Since the entire OS becomes unresponsive, how would I track down the log of this? I need to get a diagnostic, but IIRC unraid stores logs in memory, which doesn't help me here. Next I might just try a completely fresh 6.8.2 install, but I don't want to have to recreate all of my settings from scratch... (Edit: just did this and it still faulted out -- seemingly there is a hardware error somewhere, but how can I figure out what's wrong)? Any thoughts?

fnwc Posted February 22, 2020 Author Share Posted February 22, 2020 So I ended up completely reseating my memory and CPU (and reapplied thermal paste) -- everything looks good so far. 1 Quote Link to comment
