Hello Home Assistant Community!
I am new to Home Assistant but have had a home automation system running for about 6 years. I came from Indigodomo running on a Mac mini which was very stable and worked well, but I wanted to see what else was out there. After a quick try and return of Hubitat, I came to Home Assistant and I have really enjoyed it so far.
My main issue is that I can’t get HA to remain running for any length of time. Either the host system or the VirtualBox dies. I’ve never had it running for a continual 24 hours. It usual dies within about 12 hours.
My Setup:
arch x86_64
chassis vm
dev false
docker true
docker_version 19.03.11
hassio true
host_os HassOS 4.12
installation_type Home Assistant OS
os_name Linux
os_version 5.4.56
python_version 3.8.3
supervisor 234
timezone America/New_York
version 0.113.3
virtualenv false
Host: Mac mini
OS: Catalina 10.15.6
1.4 GHz core i5
4 gig Ram
VM:
1 gig memory
2 processors
Running about 15 devices which are primarily ZWave
GoControl HUSBZB-1 UBS stick
ISSUE:
Typically, The Mac mini reboots and says MacOS was “restarted because of a problem”
This never occurred when running Indigo and the Mac mini was always very stable.
Does anyone have any suggestions or experience with running the Hassio docker image on a Mac that may have run in to similar issues? I’d be happy to share more log info if that would help.
Thanks for helping out a new recruit to Home Assistant.
