Good Evening,
som month ago I installed little Proxmox VE to testing affidability and functionality.
I created 2 vm one Windows 2019 Server and one Linux server.
About two month the VMs crasched with io-error yellow Triangle. I dowgrade the kernel version to 5.11 but it's same.
Can you help me?
 
Please provide the output of pveversion -v and qm config <VMID> for one of the affected VMs.
Also check the syslog/journal for any errors regarding the disk those VMs are on.
 
This is pveversion:

I attach my syslog, the problem was about Nov 28 at 01.00 a.m. , but I can't find any disk problem.
Thank's for help me..
 
It seems the syslog didn't make it.
Can you try attaching it again?
 
Thank you for the syslog!

It would seem that your `local-lvm` storage is simply full:
Code:
Nov 28 12:38:16 pve kernel: [864872.499140] device-mapper: thin: 253:4: switching pool to out-of-data-space (queue IO) mode
Nov 28 12:38:24 pve lvm[445]: WARNING: Thin pool pve-data-tpool data is now 100.00% full.
Nov 28 12:39:18 pve kernel: [864934.283889] device-mapper: thin: 253:4: switching pool to out-of-data-space (error IO) mode

Did you overprovision it or create snapshots?
But your VMs can no longer write since there's no space available and you'll see the `io-error` status then.

Free up some space on your `local-lvm` storage and it should be fine again. And make sure to always have some spare space, since running out of space can corrupt the filesystems inside the VMs.

Auch!!!
I did some snapshot and this increase size more time.....
How I can change snapshot disk destination??
 
You can't, those are part of the storage itself.
But you can remove some of those and it should free up space again.
