Hi there!
Earlier today one of my Ubuntu VM's suddently stopped working. I didn't change anything on the host (other than renewing the cert a few days ago) or the guest and both were running for a few weeks without any issues. Got a mail today from my uptime monitor that some websites aren't working anymore and I tried to jump on the console to see what's what. I couldn't even login (on the guest) and got spammed by fatal errors about read-only filesystem I think (sadly I don't have a screenshot of those). I rebooted the guest and was stuck in a boot-loop with the following message (which appeared after entering the password to encrypt the lvm):
It is trying to do a fsck but after ~5% the message with the panic= boot argument appears and the machine automatically reboots.
VM settings:
Proxmox version is 5.2-8 (now that I'm writing that, I might have done an aptitude safe-upgrade the other day, but that was a few days ago already). The disk size is 1TB and had about ~60GB in use (although backups were as big as 200GB+). I've "solved" the issue by adding a new machine and recovering a backup, but I would very much like to find out how that happened to avoid future issues like that, any pointers on how to access that machine again and maybe pull some logs?
Best regards
