I am having some issues with a Proxmox install on an upgraded machine. Originally, the machine was an AMD FX-6300 (at the stock clockspeed) with 24GB of RAM and a single 1TB WD Blue drive. I have upgraded to an SSD as the root filesystem drive, and all my VMs are stored on 3 1TB drives, two of which are Seagate drives that I got used (the third one is the same Western Digital 1TB drive from the original setup). I have a 400w Cooler Master desktop PSU in this server.
Lately, I have been experiencing issues with the system freezing completely. I am guessing this is due to the storage upgrades since I ran the machine with only the 1TB WD Blue drive for nearly 3 years and never had these sort of problems. The machine will randomly freeze up completely, and requires a hard reset to start up again. This happens every 1-2 days usually, but best I can figure it is totally random. When it freezes, if the screen has not gone blank to save energy, there are random flickering blue bars across the screen. I do not have any additional packages installed on this machine, and I am using the pve-no-subscription repository.
It is worth noting that I don't think it is ZFS itself causing problems as I ran ZFS RAID-1 on 2 160GB drives for a brief period without problems. This is the first time I have ever used RAIDZ-1, however, and also the first time I have used SSD caching/ZIL logging, and the first time I have ever run Proxmox on an SSD at all. The SSD is a Corsair Force LS120, and I did a firmware update on it about 2 weeks ago.
Any ideas? I am totally at a loss here; I've tried everything I know to try, so I'm willing to try anything you suggest. I can post whatever logs are needed.
Note: I just did a kernel update via APT (to whatever the latest Proxmox kernel is) so we'll see if that does anything.
