Unraid 6.9 keeps crashing


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello,

 

I have been using UnRaid for over 4 years now and have been very satisfied with it. However, in the past 2 months, I have encountered a problem with my server that makes it almost unusable.

 

This problem also existed with Unraid 6.8rc4, I updated to 6.9.0-beta1 in the hopes that this would fix the problem.

 

The problem is that after booting the server, after 8-72 hours, the server will become unresponsive. Ping attempts are unsuccessful. The machine itself is still running, but I cannot interact with UnRaid in any way. This means that once a day, I have to force restart the server, which is not a viable option for the future. 

 

I've looked through the syslog and it appears that whenever this happens, the following output is logged every 3 minutes:

I've also attached the full syslog in case anyone wants to read through it. 

 

I would very much appreciate any help you could give me! I am using this server for my company and am desperate for a fix.

 

Thank you!

Thanks for your response. I looked at that but the problem is that it seems that the logs in the diagnostics zip are stored in RAM. So, when I force restart it, everything gets wiped and the logs are completely empty. 

 

Do you know how I can prevent them from getting erased and store them somehow? The only way I got my syslog was by enabling logging to flash.

 

Here's an old diagnostics zip I downloaded immediately after the first time I encountered the problem. Hopefully it'll be of use.

Thanks, but I'm a bit confused. That article is about the syslog server, and I did enable that - but all it gives me is the syslog, which I posted. I've looked through the diagnostics.zip and it appears as if most of them are basic info about the config, so they wouldn't really change, and I attached the full syslog in my earlier post. 

 

I'm really sorry, but I'm new to UnRaid debugging because it's always worked so well - so I apologize for these questions! But I think that I uploaded everything relevant now, right?

 

I'm going to reboot into safe mode just to eliminate any possibility of plugin problems, as some of them are deprecated. Unfortunately, because of the nature of the problem, I won't really know if it works until next week.

 

Nevertheless, thank you so much for your help!

Not a question of whether they changed. Just trying to get a more complete picture. You didn't tell us anything really about your hardware, and rather than pulling teeth to get that information, diagnostics makes it easier for everyone. And other things a user can do to their configuration can lead to problems. Many things can get diagnosed by looking at things other than syslog,

 

If you had been running Ryzen, for example, I would have had other suggestions for that since there are some tweaks that can help with those CPUs and crashes.

Ah okay, thanks! The thing is that this system has been running perfectly nonstop for 4 years, and the last thing I changed was a VM I added 2 months ago, long before any problems started. So, I'd be surprised if it's a configuration problem because I wouldn't expect those to just suddenly occur. That's why I'm really confused - I mainly work in IT Security so dealing with things like this isn't my specialty, and because I didn't change anything I don't really have a lead on where to begin debugging.

As an update for anyone with a similar problem, I've been running the server in Safe Mode with GUI enabled for 2 days now, and so far without a problem. It seems as if the problem was most likely a deprecated or otherwise malfunctioning plugin.

The diagnostics didn't cover enough time for FCP to have listed things, but it would have been telling you

 

Resilio.plg - 2016.09.17.1  --- Unknown and shouldn't be installed (In truth though this is a PhAzE plugin which has been removed from CA because it's not supported, not updated, and very likely will cause problems)

newransomware.bait.plg - 2018.07.02 - Deprecated

ca.backup.plg - 2017.10.28 - Deprecated - Known to cause issues under certain circumstances and replaced by a v2 version

dynamix.cache.dirs.plg - 2018.12.04 - Way way way out of date

Thanks! I have to admit, I've been using UnRaid mainly as a NAS in a "set it and forget it" way - and I definitely have some maintenance work to do. I'll leave it running in safe mode a while longer to make sure it's really stable now, and then I'll begin reactivating the plugins that are still being maintained. I'll definitely remove those plugins though, they're definitely more trouble than they're worth.

Do you have Notifications setup to alert you immediately by email or other agent as soon as a problem is detected?

Yes, I have email notifications configured - I used to get them all the time because my drives were getting a bit warm, but since fixing that I barely have any problems. It never warned me of any impending problem, the cpu stall warnings would just suddenly appear in the syslog, nothing else.
