Not overwriting existing state file.

[Josh20]

The Vm is a preloaded Windows 11 installation and I moved to a proxmox setup. I start the VM and it acts like it's going to boot up but then stops giving me no errors and no warnings just this message:
swtpm_setup: Not overwriting existing state file.
TASK OK

your help is appreciated.

Hello @Josh20 and welcome the Proxmox Community

So please post me your VM-Config by executing this command:

qm config <vmid>

And post the logfiles during the start process. Open a terminal and start the "journal live logging" with:

journalctl -f

Now start your VM, after the process stops with an error, please post or attach the output of the "journal live logging" here.

I will have to get you the information at a later date I am out of town this hole week.

Before I have left I adjusted the ram on the VM instead of saying 32gbs for the full amount in the system. I had to reduce the amount to about 26gbs of ram to the VM to get it to work.

Why can't I use the full amount of ram that's in the system into the vm?

Why can't I use the full amount of ram that's in the system into the vm?

How is the host system supposed to work when it has no RAM available?
