so, after monitoring the environment for a while - i can confirm, that the issue has been fixed by moving the zfs-swap area on rpool to a non-zfs (ext4) file system. Thanks guys for help & support. I do appreciate a lot. Cheers Mike

ok - gents - so far - no crashes anymore So, i think re-swap to non-zfs (rpool) partition (ext4) solved the issue. i'll track the behave some more weeks .. then i think i could close the case. So far - thanks to all involved/helped on this topic :)

yes, mgabriel .. i read about it. i did: unpin kernel (previous action: Set kernel '6.5.13-5-pve' in /etc/kernel/proxmox-boot-pin) destroy rpool/swap create a new ext4 partition (20G) activating swap on this ext4 partition (20G) Let's see, if it works.

yes, that's right .. i also read, there could be some threats regarding swap on top of zfs. My config : ~# zfs list rpool/swap NAME USED AVAIL REFER MOUNTPOINT rpool/swap 31.6G 385G 11.0G -

did it : Set kernel '6.5.13-5-pve' in /etc/kernel/proxmox-boot-pin. let's see the results.

have got automatic crash monitoring/reporting - today got: !!! ATTENTION: PROXMOX CRASHED !!! - so numa: 0 did not help

just did it: numa: 0 let's see, if it's help & thanks

Excellent post-work Kyle. I will rework/revise upon your recommendations (good points about alignements).

Great Job, Kyle - you gave me a guideline for the drawings :) check it out .. the are mines -->

and of course step 7 at the end of all: 7. Run “proxmox-boot-tool” ----------------------- proxmox-boot-tool format /dev/sda2 proxmox-boot-tool format /dev/sdb2 proxmox-boot-tool init /dev/sda2 proxmox-boot-tool init /dev/sdb2

Thanks very much for this fantastic work, Kyle ! In the meantime i did successfully did the migration just - (i think at least) with another approach. During the Migration the whole system was up no downtime was needed: Prereq: we have a (ZFS ZPOOL) rpool (mirrored) with two disks: /dev/sda2...

Thx Fabian for your excellent explanation.

Thx Fabian, ok understood. What is the advantage having more than one ESP ? To have the chance/possibility to boot the systems from any of the ESP Partitions and so to get some kind of redundancy (if one of the ESP would fail) ?
