Hi everyone,
I have a FreeNAS setup (FreeNAS-11.3-U2.1, on an Intel 4570 with 8GB of RAM) with a Samba share set up (and some jails for Plex, Sonarr, etc).
I have a Windows PC that I access the Samba share with to copy large files. The problem is that when I transfer for a few minutes, eventually the FreeNAS crashes (I can't log in to the web interface, or ping it, the share of course goes down too). It happens after 5-10 minutes, sometimes longer, sometimes earlier. Another clue is that if I connect to the 2.4GHz band on my router and thus reduce my transfer rate from 20-30MBps (on the 5GHz band) to 10-12MBps the FreeNAS is far less likely to crash (although it has a couple of times still).
I have been monitoring the temperatures and CPU utilisation, and it is all very low at the time, even just before the crash. I have also tried swapping RAM sticks (different slots, and different sticks altogether). This happens on both HDDs that are in the machine (one is a 4TB Seagate Expansion shucked drive, and the other an 8TB WD shucked drive)
Can someone please guide me as to how I would go about diagnosing this problem?
Thanks,
Rik.
