Momentary Network Outages - NVMe?

[Psychic49]

Hi all,

Yesterday I setup an OPNsense server to replace my old router. I'm still learning how to use it to track down network problems. Every few hours, I experience a momentary network outage across all my devices that lasts about 15 seconds.

Checking the console, I see many NVMe errors and I'm thinking they might be related.

Has anyone else ever experienced problems like this NVMe drives and do you think these errors are the cause of my problems?
I restarted my server an hour ago and haven't had any network outages since, and no errors in the console. I'm willing to bet that when the next outage happens, there will be errors in the console.

Also, where can I go to analyze historical data from this period of time?

I'm running Sensei on LAN, Suricata on WAN, and Clam AV. I'm using the below NIC and running on an Optiplex (used) with a 9th gen i5 and a 250gb NVMe.

Some bug reports online suggest it is possibly a driver issue. I don’t have any issue with my NVMe SSD but some brands/models seem to have issues. And the network drop seems likely related as the bug reports mention system “freezes” that last a short period

That's unfortunate, but good to know. Just ordered this SATA M.2 WD Blue 3D NAND to replace, hopefully this problem doesn't affect everything that's in the M.2 form factor.

Update: problem fixed with hardware replacement

Good stuff. Some of the bug reports mention FreeBSD releasing some patches for certain NVMe devices, which may or may not have applied to yours. But problem avoided I guess by moving to SATA
