[SOLVED] Guest shown as not running

[Valerio Pachera]

This is the first time I see something like that in proxmox:



This is a freshly installed proxmox where I'm installing ubuntu 16.04 as guest.
I notice that the ubuntu installation process is hanged.
The guest icon is shown as the guest was off.
You may also notice form tha task log that I tried to run the guest but proxmox advice it's already running.



To be sure, I also checked bu ssh:

ps aux | grep kvm

On the top right at least I can stop the vm:

what does

qm status 100 --verbose

say?

The problem is repeatable.
I repeated the guest installation and as soon it start to format the disk, the green icon arrow disappear from Proxmox and the no-vnc is "fronzen".
This is the guest conf:

boot: dcn
bootdisk: scsi0

Ops, my fault, I noticed now I created lvm-thin of 100M instead of 100%FREE.



Sorry for bothering.
