Having recently built a FreeNAS for my home, I'm having a lot of serious stability issues with the platform. I have a lot of experience with Linux systems, but not very much with BSD, so I thought I'd ask for help. My FreeNAS box is as detailed in my signature.
I'm having an issue where pretty much everything crashes. NFS tends to go quite quickly, then some time after it'll be the web interface, and at some point in there SSH and SFTP crashes too. Sometimes, the entire network on the machine will crash and it won't even be pingable, but when I go to physically check the console, the machine is running fine. I don't tend to get more than 24 hours out of it, if even that. A reboot brings everything back up.
The permanent clients are all NFS, with SMB and SFTP only used for occasional manual access. I have a Xen server that uses the NAS for some of the boot drives (I was in the process of migrating them all over, but stopped when I realised this was so unstable). Some other VMs on the server mount shares from the NAS via NFS, which all seems to work fine for a while. At 3AM, about 10 VMs are backed up using Xen Orchestra's Backup NG onto a different share on the NAS.
I have the Resilio Sync plugin and a Cloud Sync job set up as well.
In general use, the CPU usage according to netdata does not go above 40%. This includes during these backups. The only time it goes above 40% is when I use the FreeNAS shell to move files/perform a more complicated command. RAM seems to sit around 80% at all times.
I really would appreciate any help. I'm happy to provide any more information that's needed, it can just be a little difficult considering the Web UI is almost permanently crashed.
Thanks in advance,
Jake
