Proxmox only does a (controlled, graceful) bulk shutdown when you press the (power or GUI) button or some script asks for it. It does not automatically do this after installation. Did you install third-party software or run third-party scripts on the Proxmox host?
 
for more precisions about the installation:
dell r250 with 2ssd 1TB (raid1)
64 gb ram
2 vms with win19 server

here is the file

The log was all cropped, but I can't help not notice the:

Code:
Jul 04 10:05:47 hypsrvlahfood systemd-logind[583]: Power key pressed shor>
Jul 04 10:05:47 hypsrvlahfood systemd-logind[583]: Powering off...

With nothing preceding it.

You may want to add HandlePowerKey=ignore to your /etc/systemd/logind.conf and watch the logs. Do not forget to reboot or systemctl restart systemd-logind.
