Good morning team, I hope you are very well, a while ago I had a big problem with proxmox PVE and proxmox backup server.

Turns out I have two different nodes attached to a PBS, both are PVE 6.3-2. The problem I had is that all my virtual machines on both nodes were inaccessible, the signal was intermittent. on occasions everything seemed to be fine in the hypervisor, but in others as if it had lost connection, even the virtual machines, they lost access but soon after it returned.

The signal returned only for an approximate period of 30 seconds, to later be lost for about 5 minutes or more.

In the end, the solution was to eliminate the PBS in both nodes with the command "pvesm remove pbs-01", however to date we do not know why this error occurred and how to avoid it, since it is necessary to use the PBS option

I attach an image of how my virtual machines were displayed

check the syslog/journal on the pve nodes, this probably contains some errors/warnings what did go wrong
