Every week or so it seems TrueNas goes offline

[marcevan]

This has been happening I think for the last 6 months it seems. Maybe 1-2 weeks go by and TrueNAS is unreachable: gui, plugins all timeout.

The box is powered but since I do not use SSH and the box is local to me, I cannot see what is happening so I just hard reboot it.

Is there somewhere I can look to see what is happening/causing this?

Can you connect a monitor to the system when it goes offline to see what is displayed?

The X11 has an IPMI device on the shared NIC (according to SMC's website). Can you reach that / have you configured it?

 

[marcevan]

I had issues using that yellow NIC for IPMI as it becomes the main IP when connected to my router...the NIC from the Intel 10G gets nothing, so abandoned that.

I will try to get a monitor connected, but it's racked so need my contractor to help.

Iirc the logs should be in /var/logs.
You can look here.

 

[marcevan]

you mean /var/log ? I don't have /var/logs

Also not really into CLI as TrueNAS is GUI I'd like to keep the relationship businesslike.

Yes /var/log. If you want to know what happens that's the place to look into
