i am still not able to understand why did this problem started for past 30 days..... previous two year i am not faced this issue.... what gone wrong in my side ?
VMs shutting down unexpectedly
- Thread starter Lamia
- Start date
licensing problem of windows, create a vm using linux and chk if same problem happens or not, then only you can have some idea about the problem
are you using no subcription version of prox mox ?
if you clone a vm and did not change the vm id ("sysprep" out of box in windows) or mac address , then also u may face this problem

I figured out my problem. I was short on RAM. You can't allocate 100% of available RAM to all VMs either. You should leave a tiny smidge for overhead.
Yeah..., you should not overcommit RAM. It just does not work well. In all of my (Homelab-) systems RAM is always the most critical resource :-(
If you need to relax that problem a little bit you may look at zram; I prefere this over a static swap-file:
Code:
~# apt show zram-tools
Description: utilities for working with zram
zram is a Linux kernel module that allows you to set up compressed
filesystems in RAM.
.
zram-tools uses this module to set up compressed swap space.
This is useful on systems with low memory or servers
running a large amount of services with data that's easily swappable
but that you may wish to swap back fast without sacrificing disk
bandwidth.
