Syslog Spam

Featured Replies

I experienced my unRAID log file running completely full a few weeks ago, and I cleared it by deleting syslog* from /var/log/, but I didn't think twice about it.

Now, It's full again, and I'm looking at it.. I'm getting spammed by these messages every second that I don't understand in the slightest:

Anyone have any advice on where to even start?

What web browser do you use?

I tried to gather it, but the page just hangs. I also don't have the CPU stats populated (all cores show 0%). I think this happened last time I manually deleted the syslog files.

Best way to clear logs is to reboot.

 

Reboot and post diagnostics. Also setup Syslog Server:

Attached is the diag zip. However, it's now not throwing those errors. I figure it's just a matter of time though?

 

I'm working on setting up a syslog server, but haven't had the time yet.

These seem to be what is spamming your log every second or so. No wonder it fills up.

Those are my Proxmox nodes binding, which should be NFS. The nodes weren't happy I rebooted the NAS on them..

Did you ever find a answer to this? My proxmox is  causing the same log spamming. Sure seems like a Unraid issue vs a Proxmox issue.
