Here’s a better suggestion. Why don’t you see if you can find out what’s causing the issue? It sounds a like a problem occurring in userspace. Try running htop

You know you are right, and I’ve tried. I can manually monitor but it doesn’t happen just then. I don’t know yet what causes it, I can only assume it’s one of the Docker containers because the machine is doing nothing else.
I am doing this to find out how often it happens, how quickly it happens, and what’s at the top when it happens.

Setup proper monitoring with history. That way yo don’t have to babysit the server, you can just look at the charts after a crash. I usually go with netdata

Maybe try capping the resource usage of each container. At least then the machine won’t completely lock up
