1650917863595.png after sometime (days) my ProxmoxVE shows that display : node and VMs are running properly but no status displayed anymore !

This issue can be fixed by restarting the ProxmoxVE server (but issue reappears after sometime...)

I couldn't any answer in the forums...
Does anybody face a similar issue ?
Many THX for your kindly help
 
Hello,

Does the pvedaemon service running? `systemctl status pvedaemon.service` do you check the journal/Syslog in your node in order to see if there is any interesting err message?
 
Hello
Thanks for your reply !
Right now, it is working properly (pvedaemon=active(running) ); I had to restart proxmox...
I am waiting the next failure...
Keep you informed.
THX
 
Hi, I am having same problem on my system occasionally,
I find that pvestatd crashed when icons grayed with question mark.
I am starting pvestatd with "systemctl start pvestatd" then statuses all become green...

Thx bigmehmet ! I will try your workaround (at least we avoid to restart the whole Proxmox..) But we don't know the root-cause so far...
 
Hello : the issue occured again (I applied systemctl start pvestatd successfully)
Anyway I get inside /var/log/syslog several times :

But later in the day I noticed :

This "proxmox kernel" fault ? could be the reason why pvestatd crashed ?
Have you ever seen this similar error in your syslog also ?
THX
 
I ran in to the same issue, but root cause was the metric server I added for testing was not reachable anymore and pvestatd failed because of that:

Code: 
Dec 12 21:35:38 server pvestatd[1393]: lxc status update error: couldn't create carbon socket [k3s.network.local]:30209 - Connection refused
refused

Hello :)

did you find a solution for this problem?
I'm having the exact same issue. Restarting pvestatd fixes the problem for about 5 minutes, but then everything goes "unknown" again.

Kind regards
