Issue Description: I have been having this issue with my raspberry pi running dietPi where it seems to lock up and I cannot SSH / access any of the services on it. The interesting part is that the interface seems to be up and I can still ping it on the local network but shows no video output. usually I get about 3-6 days before the issue appears again.
I am not really sure where to start to diagnose this issue. Any help would be appreciated!
Things Tried:
Reduced operating temp by getting a fan. I want to say this improved the length in between this issue appearing but don’t really have any hard evidence.
uninstalled unused services
Limited active torrents in QbitTorrent
EDIT: Small thing to mention is that the CPU load is usually really high - like not uncommon for the load to be between 8-10 but I have seen it as high as 24.
Temporary fix:
Power cycle - everything comes up again in less than a minute.
Raspberry Pi 3B v2
OS: DietPi
Services:
Lidarr
Radarr
Sonarr
Prowlarr
Qbittorrent
Mullvad VPN - WireGaurd
SSH
I upgraded to the Pi4 but I use this case. It has a daughter board that lets me use an m.2 SATA SSD over USB. But any USB to SATA adapter should work fine
You should get a scsi enabled adapter though, otherwise you may have to disable it in the kernel boot settings. And if you forget that it will run at like kbit/s.
