Hello, today I had freeze on my home lab Proxmox server.
I had to hard reset the machine in order to boot again.
Here the Log report from systemctl:

May 28 18:17:01 proxmox1 CRON[1873682]: pam_unix(cron:session): session opened for user root(uid=0) by (uid=0)
May 28 18:17:01 proxmox1 CRON[1873683]: (root) CMD (cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly)
May 28 18:17:01 proxmox1 CRON[1873682]: pam_unix(cron:session): session closed for user root

any idea what happened ?
tks
 
I don't believe those log entries are very helpful. Could you post the syslog that goes 1 hour (This is an arbitrary timeframe) before and after the freeze?

I typically attribute random freezes to either power issues or memory issues. If that system behind a UPS? Have you tested the RAM in that system recently? If not, I'd recommend it.
 
Tks @tplz .
Here the log from journalctl: link

here my proxmox summary page:

regarding the memory, I run : memtester 4096 5 without error.

Tks
