How to prevent NAS from rebooting

Quacksalber · Jul 10th 2024

Hi all,

when I came home from work today, I realized, that my NAS had rebooted.

I first suspected some power outage, but then I found this in my mails:

Code

[...]
Description: unable to read filesystem '/srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-5079354d-773d-46e7-9703-a89333548b89' state

This triggered the monitoring system to: restart
[...]

This is clearly something I don't want.

It ok, do be informed or alerted.

I would even expect (and like) to see this information, when I log into the Web-UI.

And then it's me to decide that I do a reboot (or maybe not).

But I don't want the NAS to boot automatically.

Where can I disable this?

Many thanks,

quack

Your system is not rebooted, the monitoring is restarting the monitored service.

Quacksalber · Jul 10th 2024

ok, then I might have misunderstood that mail notification.

But my system was indeed rebooted.

I had several remote sessions open, which are now not existing any longer.

As well as the job that I had running, which I estimated to run for at least 12h maybe 24h -- no longer there.

The NAS has currently an uptime of about 5 hours, which by coincidence matches with the time of the above mail...

So if it wasn't the monitoring system that restarted my NAS, how do I find out, what restarted it and why ?

You need to have a look into the systemd journal where everything is logged. If you have not configured a scheduled power management job that restarts your system then everything else has triggered that. Hint, it might be caused by the Kernel itself.

looking into the systemd journal and searching for the last boot I found several entries before the reboot, which from my judgement are not directly related to the reboot. Seems more like it might have crashed...

(not sure about that - it's the first time I have a look in that kind of log)

first of all the NUT service is restarted every few seconds

about every minute I see: CRITICAL - Unable to load wakealarm table.

From time to time I see error messages that seem to come from smartmontools

Based on that I wanted to at least get rid of some of those messages and disabled UPS in the Web-UI.

That gave this error which seems to be OMV-specific:

Code

Any idea, what might be the problem?

(The system was installed from scratch a few days / weeks ago. It is still not in day by day usage. I'm still in the process of transferring all my data to it.)

seems like I have a similar problem at various places.

I tried a few things just to see, where the problem is...

For example, when I try to change monitoring / notifications at System / Notification / Events I get:

So it's always ERROR: The state 'xyz' does not exist

Anybody knows what this is about and what I can do now?

Do you have installed the mdadm and wakeslarm plugins?

Quacksalber · Jul 11th 2024

yes (I just double checked)

yes (I just double checked)

In this case the error message is strange because then these state should exist.

Please try running

Bash

# apt-get install --reinstall openmediavault-mdadm openmediavault-wakeslarm

Quacksalber · Jul 11th 2024

just out of curiosity I did apt list --installed | grep openmedia before reinstalling.

Output was:

I assume instead of openmediavault-mdadm I should reinstall openmediavault-md.

I did reinstall both modules and after that the above errors disappeared.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Should I maybe do a reinstall for all of the omv modules?

Or asked the other way round:

Can I check which salts states are available on my system (as-is list) and can I compare that to a to-be list?

Any idea how that could have been disappeared?

An package update process that was broken/interrupted somehow or a corrupted file system.

There is a command that is listing all available commands, but that does not help. I suggest to wait until another error occurs; in that case you know what to do. Until then i think it is not necessary to do any additional action.
