Hi there.

I have 2 servers working with Proxmox.

Server 1 = Proxmox 3.2
Server 2 = Proxmox 3.3

If I get a copy of VM from 3.2 and put it to work over the 3.3, after some hours the windows 2008 gets totally freeze.
On the 3.2, I have it working without any restart or issue for more than 60 days, without any problems, but the same VM running over the 3.3 do never pass more than 1 day without freeze.
When It is freeze, I login to console and hit ctrl + alt + del and the password screen do not appear.
Everything inside the server is freeze and I know it because I have some online services inside this VM and these services stop to work.

There is any logs, or debug files of I can start to search if we have some problem on the node?

Thank you for help!
 
Hello

Since it works on first node then there must be something wrong on node2, for example hardware problem?
Have you used the normal backup/restore procedure to restore the vm on node2?
What kind of hardware has node2(cpu,ram,storage)?
Do you have other vms on node2 working correctly?
What about vm config? do you use virtio?
 
The hardware on nodes is exactly the same.

E5-2620 - 64bg ram - 512 ssd.

The copy I did shutdown on VM in the first server, copied raw file to the new server and did the same configs.

I also tried to change RAM from one server to another server.

I'm using Virtio at all... hdd, ethernet, virtio ballon driver.

I don't know if the VM is using the latest version of driver 1.8xxx or 1.6xxx.
