Brand new to proxmox and did my first install on an Intel NUC. This error keeps coming up. There are no VMs created and nothing else is running on the system (not shared). Any suggestions? ProxMox VE 7.4.3

That NUC model is old enough to have good support in the default 5.15 model, but not that old to make it uncommon, and thus more likely to see regression from newer kernels.

So, I'd initially suspect memory HW issues and recommend ensuring that the memory DIMMS are plugged in nicely, and running memtest86+ for a while as first step: https://memtest.org/

If it holds up a few full test cycles I'd check for newer kernel, as the one used isn't the newest available for 5.15 and there's also an 6.2 opt-in kernel available to try: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/opt-in-linux-6-2-kernel-for-proxmox-ve-7-x-available.124189/
 
The problem is resolved. Asking the question: what changed? i remembered adding a M2 SSD to the NUC. It had been a while since i updated the BIOS, so as a last ditch effort, i found the BIOS update and applied it. After the NUC rebooted it has been rock solid.

Great to hear – you can mark this thread as solved then (Top right -> Edit Thread -> Title Prefix)
