Thanks! I'm still vacillating between your direction for proxmox and a personal spin of Talos. Any / all of which would be heavily LLM-assisted to be clear. I used to enjoy managing a horde of hosts by hand. I've aged.
Another of my funny bits...
I think you're confusing things a bit. Proxmox is a hypervisor for VMs and LXCs. Its direct competitor is probably Vmware ESXI.
To replace Office 365 you would need to setup a proxmox server and then run something like Nextcloud as a VM...

What virtio driver version is installed?
Make sure your local time is synced across all instances. You can setup chronyd as the main NTP server on the proxmox host and point all clients to that source.
I have PVE running on a 2018 Intel Mac mini and it goes for a good 20 minutes after...
I agree that the journal around the time of the issue would be useful. In particular, I would look at pvestatd first.
For example:
journalctl -u pvestatd --since "YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM" --until "YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM"
pveversion -v
pvesm status
cat...
If you're going to use ZFS, the FIRST thing you need to do is implement it properly. It's well known for years that running ZFS on top of hardware RAID is bad, who set that mess up?
Backup everything and rearchitect your ZFS pool using...
ZFS on top of hardware RAID6 means ZFS cannot see or manage the individual disks. It can detect checksum errors, but with a single RAID LUN as a vdev it generally cannot repair corrupted data from another ZFS replica, while the RAID controller...
NFS works fine, but it has limitations. Each read and write is a network hop. You will benefit from (and likely appreciate) at least a 10g network. NFS specifically benefits enormously from a proper SLOG, using an nvme drive or even better, an...
No chance, I'm already crazy per everyone in this thread ;)

So to be clear, a specific combination is needed to trigger this bug:
- Intel Gen 12 or higher (any)
- Kernel 7.x
- A windows VM (any win10 or higher, cpu type set doesn't matter)
Not many people have this combination right now, but when more...
I don't use cpu type host on windows.
Cpu is not stuck at 100%
All types of windows freeze, different versions of 10, different versions of 11, older, newer, doesn't matter.
It affects at least a few machines with different hardware, but all with...
Do you have the UEFI firmware on a separate drives, or were you able to make both the UEFI firmware and Proxmox boot from the same drive? I'm currently booting the UEFI firmware from microsd with PVE installed on USB SSD but it would be nice to...
Then read again, its about Windows VBS ( Virtualisation Based Security ) which enabled by default NOW.
If you expose the host CPU, Windows will use nested virt. for Security.
I'm sorry i stopped replying to comments like this. Thank you, but this is NOT RELATED. As I already stated, this is not related to the cpu type chosen.
THIS IS NOT THE BUG WITH WINDOWS NESTED VIRT OR WINDOWS APPLYING MITIGATIONS
Try CPU masking as the other thread suggested:
cpu: x86-64-v2-AES

Unfortunately switching to aio=native DOES NOT stop the freezes. First freeze after 5 days and 12 hours using "native". It seems to delay it, but not stop it.
