Proxmox VE 8.3 released!

Please run debsums -s.
If it doesn't show any changed packages, then you may want to run a memtest on your host.

Did you upgrade the kernel recently? Does it also happen with the previous kernel?
Code:
debsums -s

The host is running ECC-memory:
Code:
ras-mc-ctl --errors
No Memory errors.

No PCIe AER errors.

No Extlog errors.

No MCE errors.

Kernel upgraded to 6.8.12-4-pve from 6.8.8-4-pve
I have not witnessed this problem before. Is it possible that it is a bug in vncproxy ?
I was doing upgrades to a few Ubuntu VMs. As normal there is very intensive screen updating happening then...

I'd suggest to move this to a separate thread. Could you open one and @ me there?
Please also provide the journal covering a few minutes (~10) before and after the segfaults.
 
I recently performed a fresh installation of PVE 8.3. However, after starting the host I noticed it was using about 7GB of memory out of the available 96GB. Is this normal behavior?

For the boot disk, I chose Btrfs instead of ZFS, similar to another host I set up previously, which started with around 1.8GB of memory usage.

Any insights or advice would be appreciated!

How did you measure that? It can be fine if it's used for some caches, as unused memory is basically wasted memory and those caches can be made available if more memory is actually required by programs/VMs. But if an idle PVE installation uses 7 GB of memory that cannot be made available it would be rather odd – here a fresh installation uses roughly 1.3 GB of memory.

Hi Thomas,

i did try again with fresh install but same result and only 1 SSD disk (boot drive is partitioned)
On a other system with a intel xeon it uses 1.2 GB so i dont know why it use this much on this server
