Hello

I have a strange problem with the latest update of proxmox

i have a machine that is shutting down and then refusing the start unless the node is rebooted.

I get the below error in the Task Viewer:

swtpm_setup: Not overwriting existing state file.
stopping swtpm instance (pid 36801) due to QEMU startup error
TASK ERROR: start failed: QEMU exited with code 1

I am running Nvidia vGPU ver 18 and Proxmox 8.4.1 - FYI

any ideas.

found the issue.. it was due to lack of ram on the physical host. some user had increased the VM Guest memory

I put this reply in the interest of somebody else in the community facing a similar issue
