Hello!
I have build a proxmox server a few months ago and i really love it. I have had a few problems with it but i could fix everything by myself.
But i have one big problem which i cant solve:
I have an Plexserver VM (ubuntu server) which should reboot every night automatically (for different reasons). This works most of the time very well, but every few days the VM stucks at the point "system reached target reboot".
When this happens, i CAN ping the VM, but i CANT ssh to it. So i cant simply write a script that checks for ping an reset the vm, because the proxmox node cant figure out if the vm is running properly or not.

My Proxmox VM config is the following:
Code:
agent: 1
balloon: 0
boot: order=scsi0;ide2;net0
cores: 4
hostpci0: 0000:00:02
ide2: none,media=cdrom
memory: 8192
meta: creation-qemu=7.1.0,ctime=1669489085
name: APOLLON
net0: virtio=52:84:EA:CD:43:B3,bridge=vmbr0,firewall=1
numa: 0
onboot: 1
ostype: l26
scsi0: local-lvm:vm-101-disk-0,iothread=1,size=36G,ssd=1
scsihw: virtio-scsi-single
smbios1: uuid=4c76affd-a507-4f61-b421-867e34169b90
sockets: 1
startup: order=2,up=10
vmgenid: d67f37bc-ac6e-4cd5-bd56-7a40d0d744c8

Info: the "hostpci0" is the integraded igpu from my i5-12500 cpu. Of course, i followed the official proxmox guide for pci passtrough and blacklisted the device on the host. When i run "dmesg" on the host, i cant see anything related to the igpu and it works like a charm.

I hope anyone can help me :)
Have a nice weekend!
