I open this thread to report a bug I have found since the PXM version 8.2.7
As you can see in the attachment, after some hours that server did start-up the Web GUI get broken with status of virtual machines and metrics history missing.
This behavior is not present on PXM version 8.2.4.
The same issue is still present after the last update to Proxmox VE 8.2.8

can you post the content of the journal/syslog?

this only happens when the 'pvestatd' daemon gets into a bad state and stop updating the info on the guests/nodes/etc.
 
these are the journal logs filtered by the time when the issue occurs.
note that in this case the GUI got the missing status and metrics around 19:49

ok there seems to not be anything interesting in the logs you attached. maybe can you provide a bit more (from earlear to a bit later?) i see in your screenshot that you have an nfs mount, maybe that hangs/is unreliable?
does it work again if you restart the 'pvestatd' deamon?
 
sorry for late reply, I noticed the behavior happens more frequently when are started virtual machines with machine type q35 chipset and version 9.0 , which on the first cold run got stuck in a boot loop.
If I change the machine type to q35 / 8.0 no problems.
Also I recently upgraded to Proxmox 8.3 which seems not affected by the bug of the GUI
