Hi there,
After updating to PVE version 8 (currently installed version is 8.4.1 with 6.14 kernel), I occasionally have the error that my system is not reachable from one second to the other.
After rebooting, everything seems to work, but the containers start very slow (while it usually takes about 2 minutes to start all of them, it now takes about 10 minutes).
After some investigation (and with the help of a jetkvm), I was able to finally capture some error logs:
So it seems, that the network adapter fails.
In my HP ProDesk 400 G5 bought in October of 2020 I have this network adapter (according to this doc):
LAN: Realtek RTL8111HSH-CG GbE
I then found this thread on the forum:
Looks like I'm not the only one having this issue after updating to pve 8.
I checked drivers used for this network card and indeed this is the output:
The issue now is, that after applying the fix mentioned in this thread, the device is not reachable at all trough the network.
After removing it again and rebooting, I can reach the device again.
In the comments of the linked medium article someone has the same issue, but no answer for it.
Can you guys help me to fix this issue? With PVE 7, the networking was rock solid, without any of these issues. Thanks!
For reference, these are the current version installed on my system:
