Proxmox VE 7 freebsd guest reboot/shutdown problem

[kyesil]

Hi everybody.
I just using provmox ve 7. I have some issue with OVMF (UEFI) bios.
I can installing pfsense with ufs(uefi) or xfs file system.
Then I am trying reboot or shutdown in the guest. It's stay forever with "rebooting". I need to force stop on proxmox
I trying machine type Default (i440fx) or q35. I got same problem.

With SeaBIOS it's work perfectly.

My machine config and machine cli below:



Stay forever like this:

Hello, I think we had simmilar issue. Dont know what causes this, maybe some more skilled proxmox member will know. I tryied many things, nothing works for me. I think, that reboot is working till VM is running short time. When it runs few hours, issue happen.

Hi,

Adding an EFI disk to the VM fixed the issue, at least on my nodes. UEFI VMs used to boot without this disk, but it seems to be required now, probably because of improved support for secure boot.
