Hi all,

I have been troubleshooting issues with kernel panics on Proxmox 7.0-13 for the past week but I was unsure of the cause due to lots of configuring and setting up prior to noticing the issues. I decided to reinstall Proxmox and start from scratch today and was able to prove that everything seems to work fine until I involve this mirrored ZFS pool. I thought my issues were with VM configuration, but I was just able to cause a kernel panic without a VM running at all on a nearly fresh install.

My specs:
  • Dell Optiplex 5060
  • Intel i7-8700 & 64 GB (4x16GB) Crucial DDR4 2666 RAM
  • SanDisk X600 M.2 2280 SATA 128GB (Proxmox ext4 disk)
  • 2x Intel S3700 (the HP branded version, device model# MK0400GCTZA) (ZFS pool disks for VM disk storage)
  • Intel E1G44ET NIC
Like I said, I reinstalled proxmox fresh to the M.2 drive and only did very basic setup:
  • Added the no subscription repository
  • Fully updated the system & rebooted
  • Setup my networking bonds & bridges
  • Wiped the 2 S3700's, created a mirrored ZFS pool with lz4 compression and ashift=12, and confirmed the pool shows up as healthy
  • Created a single debian 11 server VM using the local-lvm for storage rather than the ZFS pool and using mostly all default settings, installed the OS and rebooted the VM, confirmed it was fully working and able to mount a nfs share from my NAS and transfer data to & from it.
  • Within the debian VM, I unmounted the NFS share and issued the command "shutdown now" as root
At this point I tried to move the VM disk from the local-lvm to the ZFS pool to start testing with it further, but this time the transfer of the VM from local-lvm to the ZFS pool caused a kernel panic. I went to the hardware screen for the VM, selected the hard disk, pressed the move disk button, and selected to move it to the ZFS pool. The transfer began but the UI eventually froze after transferring a few GB. At this point I checked the console and sure enough saw the kernel panic. I went to the syslog and got this:

Nov 04 23:45:00 hyper systemd[1]: Starting Proxmox VE replication runner...
Nov 04 23:45:01 hyper systemd[1]: pvesr.service: Succeeded.
Nov 04 23:45:01 hyper systemd[1]: Finished Proxmox VE replication runner.

Troubleshooting steps I have taken so far:
  • Prior to installing proxmox on this system with this exact hardware configuration, I did the following:
    • Fully updated the BIOS
    • Ran 24 hours of memtest, which it survived with no errors.
    • I installed both Ubuntu Server 20.04 and FreeBSD13 on this machine to test it out. In both of those configurations, I formatted these S3700's with ZFS, filled them with data or used them as root disks, and used them for testing with no issues that I witnessed.
    • All 3 SSD's were data tested and had long SMART tests run, which they survived with no errors
  • After getting the kernel panic above, I did the following:
    • Ran long smart tests on the drives again, which they passed again.
    • Checked the health of the zpool, which shows as online with no known data errors from "zpool status" and healthy in the Proxmox UI.
At this point it really seems like there is some sort of issue between Proxmox and ZFS specifically. All of this hardware was tested with Linux and ZFS particularly without a single error popping up until Proxmox came into the equation. I am running out of troubleshooting steps I know to take. Can anyone recommend anything? I can provide any information requested.

Thank you and I appreciate your time if you read all this!
