Server problem - "freezes"

Hi,
I have a problem with my serwer:
Code: 
FreeBSD name1 12.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE r341666 GENERIC  amd64
The server periodically (from several days to a month) freezes, i.e. I can log in to the server SSH, however, I can not list directories, files, enter some jails, display services or restart them. Service haproxy works but apache in jail not. No information in logs, disks report that they are ok. All data i have on zroot, sometimes i can enter on jail 2 but i cant enter to jail3... Only restart is helpful - for the next few / several days.
Code: 
  pool: base
 state: ONLINE
  scan: resilvered 668K in 0 days 00:00:00 with 0 errors on Tue Nov 19 13:28:22 2019
config:

        NAME            STATE     READ WRITE CKSUM
        base               ONLINE       0     0     0

            ada5p1.eli  ONLINE       0     0     0

  pool: zroot
 state: ONLINE
  scan: none requested
config:

        NAME            STATE     READ WRITE CKSUM
        zroot           ONLINE       0     0     0

I turned off the swap - nothing worked, I monitor the server on zabbix - no unusual CPU, RAM or network load jumps.
Any tips on what I can do? I'd rather upgrade as a last resort
 
In addition to what SirDice said (which is: you should upgrade) ...

Typically, inability to list directories and files, and run certain commands, indicate that one of the file systems has hung. That could be due to a bug (dropped lock, stuck process), or because an underlying hardware device has hung. Here's a trick I've used to find hung hard disks: become root (if that's possible), and then use "dd if=/dev/adaxxx of=/dev/null count=100 &", meaning read 100 sectors from the disk. That should finish in less than a second; if it doesn't, you might have found the disk that's the culprit.

Did I mention that I would upgrade?
