Request for help regarding random crashes

[roloman]

Dear all,

Thank you in advance for your help!
Just to let you know, i'm pretty new for proxmox, I built a NAS myself and installed proxmox on it, but i'm experiencing some crashes issues and I don't know where to find the informations, i'm a bit lost..

So here is what i've found on the other topics:

journalctl -p err -f
Sep 24 17:05:53 pve kernel: x86/cpu: SGX disabled by BIOS.
Sep 24 17:06:55 pve pvescheduler[1858]: replication: invalid json data in '/var/lib/pve-manager/pve-replication-state.json'
Sep 24 17:07:00 pve pvescheduler[1896]: replication: invalid json data in '/var/lib/pve-manager/pve-replication-state.json'
Sep 24 17:08:00 pve pvescheduler[2105]: replication: invalid json data in '/var/lib/pve-manager/pve-replication-state.json'

I don't know where to find the system error logs

Could you please help me to diagnose what's going wrong?

Just FYI, I replaced the NVMe disk a couple of months ago because the old one started dying, and I mad
e an exact copy to the new one, so the NVMe which have Proxmox installed is pretty new, and SMART looks correct, so not sure that's the issue...

additional info: when the crash happens, If I connect a screen, there is no signal at all, meaning that the system is completely dead, but I can see the activities on the network cable (lights are blinking)

EDIT: if it can help, the motherboard is ASROCK H470M-HDV/M.2 and I disabled already all energy saver options

Thank you for people who will take time to help me !!

Just to let you know, i'm pretty new for proxmox,

You should have installed version 9, not 8.x then!

Try to find hints regarding the crashes in the Journal. If it happened during the previous boot you can look at the end of the relevant journal like this:

journalctl -b -1  -p warning  -e

For a description of "-b" etc. consult man journalctl. You might post the last few dozen lines or so (depending on your findings) here - in [code]...[/code]-tags, please.
