My Linux Server Freezes Overnight—What Could Be Causing This?

Asked By CleverOtter67 On

I'm experiencing a frustrating issue with my Linux server, which runs on DietPi OS. It operates perfectly fine throughout the day, but every morning it freezes and I have to restart it to get it back up and running. I have several applications running on it, including Open Web UI for AI, Nextcloud for data storage, and ElasticSearch with Kibana. When it freezes, I can't get any display output when connecting a monitor, and the LAN port shows no activity or lights. I could really use some help figuring out what the problem might be and what I can do to fix it!

Have you thought about switching from an SD card to an SSD? It can make a big difference in reliability. Also, double-check your power supply; sometimes that can cause issues too!

I'm not actually running this on an SBC; it’s on a R9 9900X with an M.2 SSD, and I know the power supply is fine since it’s been stable while the system is running. But when it freezes, there's no display or LAN connectivity, and it doesn’t respond to pings.

You might want to check if there's some power management setting that's putting your server in a suspend or hibernate mode. Sometimes, settings like that can kick in if the server is idle for too long. It's worth a look!

I disabled quite literally everything related to power management that might cause it to freeze while idling for a long, so I'm not sure what else to check. Any specific suggestions?
