Hello everyone!
I am having an issue with my "server" (it's just a pc with old spare parts): when I need to shut it down or restart it, it takes agonizingly long to do so.
Prior to posting here, I tried troubleshooting with some LLMs like Claude, Gemini or ChatGPT, to no avail. I have close to no experience with Proxmox besides some light usage many years ago on a OVH dedicated server.
I suspect this started when I added an HBA card to the setup (specifically, this one: https://www.ebay.it/itm/166376779814).
I use this HBA card in passthrough to my Unraid VM (I had it bare metal but I was constantly left unsatisfied by some things, especially how it manages Docker and VMs, so I installed Proxmox and moved it there). The card per se it seems to be working fine for my usage, but this issue is making me go crazy haha.
Claude had me run lspci so I'm reporting the output here:
Claude also made me notice I put the card in a wrong PCI slot, and moved to a more appropriate since then (now it's correctly in a 8x slot). Sadly, the move did not fix the issue.
Journalctl reports also this:
Furthermore when watching the shutdown process through KVMIP after an exhausting long screen of a "blinking underscore", I managed to get this screenshot a minute or so before the actual shutdown of the device:
I also had another issue regarding the speed of the network that I noticed while using SMB from the Unraid VM to my Windows PC. When it was bare metal it was fine, gigabit speeds; now instead it can stay gigabit stable for idk, a week or a day, and speeds plummet.
Iperf3 reports 13 Mbits/sec instead of the usual ~950. Usually a reboot of the vm fixes this for the time being.
I'm unsure if it's related but I'm reporting all I can haha.
Any help in fixing this issue is very well appreciated, and sorry if I posted in the wrong place.
Please tell me if you need more logs or command outputs.
