Hello, after upgrading from version 7 to version 8 of Proxmox, the cluster was left without communication with my iscsi storage. After verifying what could have happened, I realized that the names of the fiber cards that were installed were renamed. They communicated with the ISCSI storage, this is so that you take it into account if something similar happens to you, since I had those cards on a bridge.
 
Adding the newly named ports to the bridge and removing the previous ports solved the problem.
 
This is a known "normal" behavior on Kernel update events. Unless you take special care of statically naming and referring to network cards, the naming may change. It could change on Bios update, on adding/removing new PCI device and few other events.
This is not PVE specific. There are more than a few threads of people complaining about it.
