Persistent Kernel Panics - Mac Mini M1

I have a Mac Mini M1 and get regular kernel panics and can't seem to get to the bottom of why it is happening.


The machines sole purpose is to run as a FileMaker Server (accessible via client Windows machines through FileMaker Pro) and can run quite happily for a couple of weeks before throwing a panic and restarting.


As FileMaker Server is hosting multiple databases, the proper thing to do after a forced restart (without gracefully closing the databases) is to restore the databases from the most recent backup (Max 1 hour old). The restore process can take 2 hours and means the end users will be unable to connect to site critical information.


Since this started happening, i have disconnected everything except power and ethernet.

The machine has been moved into an air conditioned data comms room and is now fed by UPS backup.


Any help would be gratefully appreciated.



Mac mini, macOS 11.5
