I tried four times to prove that it was not a specific configuration that was causing the problem. Four times with a fresh configuration, I only executed the `ipfs config Datastore.StorageMax 1G` command.

I can’t get the logs because I’m using Docker and the device is dead.

When a dead loop is entered, there is no read or write information on either the hard disk or the network.

I also noticed that ipfs caused occasional problems with Docker’s internal DNS, with some containers going offline because they couldn’t resolve the hostname of the database container.

Is there any way to solve these problems?

Thanks!

换个服务器试一下啦，log的话把机器重启就能够在docker找到了嘛

To avoid problems, I installed kubo on the host machine and enabled the `lowpower` profile.  
I guess this might have something to do with swap.
