Immich Docker crashing on first backup
Hi everyone!
I just setup Immich on my Proxmox Docker VM.
VM has 6 Core and 6GB of ram.
When I try to do my first import of my iOS library (Backup Recent album), my server goes to 100% CPU and everything crash. I tried disabling ML in settings but still happens. I stopped backup for now.
What should I do for my first mass import of my library?

Found this, should I leave ML on and try these?
If a VM is crashing your hypervisor you have MAJOR problems, much bigger than immich
Maybe you have over committed memory
Sorry I should have been more specific, my entire VM container crash, not the hypervisir. Expected from lack of CPU/Memory. I’ll try the FAQ step tonight, maybe put Immich in it’s own VM/CT might be better
