Hi,
one of our pve hosts totally freezed. The only notice in logs was information about corosync delay warning (more than 2500ms), those warnings was about 2 minutes, after it all logs silent until server boot even on VMs.

HW: PowerEdge R940 + Perc H740P + SSDs
Storage config: LVM thick

Node is in 5 node cluster.

Even Dell remote console showed freezed console, logs in iDrac silent too, so probably not HW related.. Any knowledge/experience of the possible bugs even if they are repaired in recent versions? We are planning upgrade, any info welcome anyway.

BTW: It's possible to get current proxmox enterprise version number to compare with current no-subs?

Thanks.

Sorry for the late answer
Please consider upgrading to the latest version (PVE 5.4 has been out for quite a while and there is a new major version PVE 6.0 available since one month).

Else - do you have a dedicated network for your corosync traffic? (Otherwise the problem is most likely due to the network being overloaded

I hope this helps!
