Similar problem with Proxmox Backup Server 2.3 with ZFS and UEFI on R730:
The problem disappear when you remove hard disks (PBS install) from the R730.
UEFI Secure boot is not enabled.
Did you find any workaround for this problem with Dell R730 and Promox ?
I don't think Dell will offer any support for a Dell PE2950 ;-)
If you wan't to document somewhere this Dell PE2950 problem with PVE 7.1 and later, I've found 2 workarounds:
1> Disabling acpi
Disable ACPI at the kernel level:
$ grep acpi /etc/default/grub
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="acpi=off"...
This needs to be confirmed over time, but a priori, we can replace the "acpi=off" with "noapic".
For this to work, it seems necessary to switch the "Demand-Based Power Management" parameter to "Disabled" in the BIOS.
This kernel does not work with a Dell PowerEdge 2950 III with Dual Xeon E5420.
The same type of modification as on kernel 5.13 seems required:
https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/updated-to-7-1-and-having-boot-issues.99908/
To be able to boot, I had to disable acpi.
By disabling ACPI at the kernel level, the Dell PowerEdge 2950 III can boot again.
$ grep acpi /etc/default/grub
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="acpi=off"
Don't forget to run update-grub after the modification.
Setting GRUB_TIMEOUT to 10 solve the boot problem on my PowerEdge 2950 III (G3) + Intel E5420
proxmox-ve: 7.1-1 (running kernel: 5.13.19-2-pve)
pve-kernel-5.13.19-2-pve: 5.13.19-4
Thanks a lot !
EDIT (Jan 12, 2022): after multiple shutdown/restart, the boot problem came back :-(

If we have the same problem, it doesn't really fail.
You can live migrate with virtio single+lvm-thin+discard, but for a large disk, it take very long time to start !
With a small VM (10 GB), it's not easy to see the problem, you have to wait few seconds.
With a large VM (1 TB), you have to...
