Minimserver using 100% CPU on QNAP NAS

[simoncn]

The first step for troubleshooting this and any other unexpected behaviour is to check the MinimServer log file for error or warning messages. To find the location of the log file on your NAS, see this section.

A high CPU load usually means MinimServer is rescanning your library. If MinimServer is doing a full rescan and the library is large, the high CPU load might continue for some time. If the status shown on the MinimServer configuration status page is Rescanning, this means a rescan is in progress. If you stop and restart MinimServer while a rescan is in progress, the rescan will start again from the beginning.
