ZM stops - daily

Post by Zotter »

Greetings! Looking for pointers on where to discover what's wrong here. I know something's not right, but don't know what clues are pertinent.

Long running ZM install on a dedicated box - several upgrades over the years and to date, it's been good. Installed from RPM, currently on Fedora 34 and at 1.36.5
6 cameras - all doing motion detect.
1G LAN. Storage shows about %48 usage (900G RAID). load shows about 4.x
98G of RAM, 16 cores (Xeon at 3.2Ghz). Database is 436.5 MiB

Recently, I'll log in to find current status as 'STOPPED' - will restart from either CLI (sytemctl - yes, is enabled) or web iface and appear to run just fine, until it stops again about a day or so later. Some days, it doesn't stop. Others it won't make it a day.

Looking at logs - many, many 'red' entries. But, I'm not seeing anything that screams "this is why it stopped".
Common and repeating entries for zmc_m(1-6) - "Error 67 occurred". Could that be it?

Any resources to help understand what Error 67 means? Or better yet, how to figure out why this thing is stopping?

TIA

Please attach the full log output, preferably in debug mode.
fastest way to test streams:
ffmpeg -i rtsp://<user>:<pass>@<ipaddress>:554/path ./output.mp4 (if terminal only)
ffplay rtsp://<user>:<pass>@<ipaddress>:554/path (gui)
find paths on ispydb or in zm hcl
