[BUG] Plex container causing server crashes daily

joshsalvi commented 3 months ago

Is there an existing issue for this?

[X] I have searched the existing issues

Current Behavior

I am running the Plex docker container, latest version, on an Unraid system. I noticed that each day around 3am or so, the server crashes. When I enable everything OTHER than Plex, the server does not crash. I'm using ipvlan for my network, along with an Intel iGPU for hardware encoding. I also tried disabling a majority of the recurring tasks in Plex and it occurred again.

Any idea why this might be occurring?

Expected Behavior

Server should not crash.

Steps To Reproduce

Start Plex container
Wait overnight
Server crashes

Environment

Unraid
CA

CPU architecture

x86-64

Docker creation

Screenshots of settings are included above.

I've noticed what appears to be a memory leak in the container. Not sure if it's related to your crash, but the more uptime, the more ram it chews up. Restarting the container resets it back (we're talking creeping up to ~8gigs before it maxes out my server's open ram)
