Hi Team ,
We have 3 node cluster , we recently migrate a vm from our KVM based environment to proxmox. But after migration to proxmox we face issue with guest vm. Our guest vm gives following errors .

This type of issue didn't observe in kvm based virtualization
 
i am not very familar with KVM itself. Proxmox is based on KVM. so i think - the VM is "compatible" on the new environment.
it looks to me it has some issues with the VM Hardware you added.
 
you added 60 cores to the VM from the first Picture
Yes , initially it has 40 core and we face interface reset and high cpu utilization. So we upgrade its core from 40 to 60. Base box have 40 Core and with hyperthreading it can go to 80 cores.
Additionally no other vm is running on that node.
 
what is running there that you need 40 cores ?
may you should check the high cpu utilization instead of add more CPU.
i have seen database server with 40 CPU, which has an extensive load
i have my doubt you have such environment. App server run, and never seen more, mostly on 2 or 4 CPU, very rare 8 or more.

Yes , there database is running on it . But size of database is around 10Gb.

Hello Team,

I make some change the type of CPU in guest machine. After that I did't see those messages.

My node CPUs is


Model name: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2696 v4 @ 2.20GHz
BIOS Model name: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2696 v4 @ 2.20GHz CPU @ 2.2GHz
BIOS CPU family: 179


and I did changes to
2 Socket -30 Cores x86-64-v3 , Numa=1

But I still face vm stuck issue. But the frequency is less. Any other way I can optimize it ?
