VM names disappear

[jeffgott]

I have had the names of the VM's disappear several times now in Server View - but the names show up in Options for each VM. Several VM's are still running. I can change the view but none will show the names.

This is a standalone server - not part of a cluster - and has the latest updates.

I have been rebooting the Proxmox server to resolve the issue. I have restarted pvestatd and pveproxy as suggested on other threads but neither worked. Rebooting is not a good option. Any ideas what I should do?

I ran "systemctl status pvestat". Here is the output:

Hi,
did you ever start the VM manually instead of via the qm start command or the UI? Otherwise, the process should be running inside the systemd scope.

In any case, a fix for this is already applied in git and will be part of the next qemu-server version. Most likely version 9.1.5, but it's not yet packaged.

I found out that Veeam was running a backup for that VM and something failed. It appears it left Proxmox in a state where it still thought the VM was running? Once I ran 'qm stop108', the names came back.
