I seen that only in cases where my DNS Server was offline.

So if it's the same issue, check if your dns Server is working correctly.
Dunno if you have a wins Server, but wins probably won't cause any issues if it's broken or not, because wins isn't necessary.

Im not sure if the dns server needs to register dhcp leases. Mine does at least.

However, the only thing that comes into my mind is dns resolution. Check if Proxmox uses the correct dns server also.

Cheers

Anything in the logs regarding pvestatd? Is the service running? It provides the regular checks of the cluster. If question marks show up all over the place, it must be something with it.

check ls /var/lock/lvm if there is any thing?

I decided to do a checkup to find out what is happening. I restarted pvestatd and my node started working again.
Before that my node had a question mark and the container that was running also had a question mark. Pretty much everything inside the node had a question mark, meaning each container and item of storage.
How do I found out what is happening?

Thank you

Hello,

I am also facing the same issue with one of my nodes. Can anyone of you please point out about where do I need to execute pvestatd command since my shell shows me a blank screen.

 

[Zaman]

check ls /var/lock/lvm if there is any thing?

@uzair do u try this?

 

[uzair]

Thank you Zaman for responding. I am not able to pass commands through my shell cli. Also I am noticing one strange thing is that the Node is turning back to green for a few minutes after 2-3 hours before going back to the previous state again just like displayed above in my screenshot. Moreover, when it comes back to the green state even then I am not able to pass any command in the shell cli just as shown above.

is storage not full?check logs at `/var/logs`

 

[uzair]

No the storage is not full. How to access /var/logs as I can't pass commands in my shell ?

 

[uzair]

The node has turned green again but I am not able to access the shell cli.

 

[uzair]

After turning to the green state I have noticed I can't see any network configuration in my network tab such as ports, linux bridges which were there and facing this "communication error".

Do u try through ssh?

 

[uzair]

Yes, I have tried.

i had the same issue some days ago.
Simply rebooted that node here and it was fixed.

But not sure what the issue was, i didn't checked, just stupidly rebooted.

 

[uzair]

I am trying to reboot the Node from within the Proxmox VE but it throws a connection timeout error and unfortunately I have no physical access to the server.

try ssh root@yourip then enter the root password of proxmox server, for logs `cat /var/log/syslog` then read near the time of issue
