Ok, I've flashed my bios and updated proxmox on both my servers in the cluster. Now we wait to see if the problem goes away.
I recently rebuilt this server, and in so I replaced the ram with Kingston sticks (4x8GB). The "Server" is a repurposed desktop system with dated hardware (4th Gen I7...
Well, I have updated both my servers to the latest version using distupgrade and everything was running swimmingly for 1.6 million seconds. Then the second node crashed again! I'm currently looking for alternatives to proxmox, since I can't figure out this problem, and crashing every two weeks...
So, this is a strange thing, It starts fine, and the pvestatd service will continue to run for about 3 days. But around the 225000 second mark, something crashes that kills the pvestatd service. I'll check dmesg when it crashes again to try to determine what the failure is.
I really don't want...

Mine is doing that too, for some reason pvestatd is crashing, causing the issue. I'm still researching the cause.
I wrote the following script to keep the daemon alive and slapped it in crontab. kinda like a watchdog, but without having to configure that beast.
#!/bin/bash
