Hi,

After updating from pve 6.4.x to 7.2-5 in the syslog I can see very often (like 4 times every minute) this entry: pvestatd[6720]: status update time (7.800 seconds)

The other hosts in the same cluster don't show this issue.

What should I do?
 
Hi,
this is just an informational message and means that querying the stats of your storages takes multiple seconds. Likely candidates are network storages. Does pvesm status also take that long? Are some storages inaccessible?

Lately it doesn't happen anymore, very strange.

pvesm status took 1/2 seconds. Nothing is inaccessible.
 
Is this somewho related to these logs which I see very frequently?

Code:
 pmxcfs[7017]: [status] notice: received log
and also
Code:
corosync[7431]:   [TOTEM ] Retransmit List: e4f9f6 e4f9f8 e4f9f9

Thanks?

The first one is standard. The second one means corosync had to retransmit a few messages, but it's not a full-blown error. It might indicate some (transient) network issue. Do you have a dedicated network for cluster communication?

Hi,

The first one can be seen many times today, that's what worries me. The other one ok, I've seen it like 5 times in a row but I don't have any network issue I suppose, the LAN network used to manage the pves is also dedicated for cluster communication. I have other nics on each server used for ceph, wan and backup.

It's printed whenever something is added to the cluster log (in the web UI, it's in the bottom panel).

Might mean that there was a minor hiccup at that time.
