Node checks

Checks run on every node of the cluster. Cross-node checks compare each node with its peers and are skipped on a single node. How to read the codes: Overview.

Code SubContext Gravity Description
WN0003 EOL Warning Installed PVE version has reached end of life
WN0004 Subscription Warning Node has no active Proxmox VE subscription
CN0002 PackageVersions Critical A package installed on both nodes has a different version (kernel images and pve-manager ignored: the Proxmox VE version is WC0011)
IN0001 Update Info Packages available for update
WN0012 Update Warning Packages with APT priority important available for update
WN0013 Reboot Warning A newer kernel is installed than the one running — reboot needed
WN0042/CN0042 CVE WarningCritical A known CVE affects the installed Proxmox VE version
Code SubContext Gravity Description
WN0005 Hosts Warning /etc/hosts entries differ between nodes (comments and spacing ignored)
WN0006 DNS Warning DNS configuration differs between nodes
WN0007 Timezone Warning Timezone differs between nodes
WN0008 AptRepositories Warning Enabled APT repository URLs differ between nodes (suites and components are not compared)
WN0014 NTP Warning Node clock differs by more than 60 s from the clock of the machine running cv4pve-diag
WN0045 NTP Warning Node clock drifts > 5s from another cluster node (corosync / HA / log correlation risk)
WN0015 CPUCompatibility Warning Nodes have different x86-64 feature levels — live migration may fail
Code SubContext Gravity Description
WN0002 Status Warning Node is not reachable
WN0001 Firewall Warning Cluster firewall enabled but individual node has it disabled
WN0011 Service Warning A required system service is not running
CN0003 Certificates Critical TLS certificate has expired
WN0023 Certificates Warning TLS certificate expires within 30 days
IN0004 Certificates Info Web UI (port 8006) uses the default Proxmox certificate or a self-signed one
IN0002 IOMMU Info IOMMU disabled — PCI passthrough will not work
Code SubContext Gravity Description
WN0009 Network Warning Physical NIC MTU differs between nodes
WN0010 Network Warning Physical NIC in use (bridge, bond, VLAN or own IP) is down
WN0034 Network Warning Bond has fewer than two slaves — no link redundancy
WN0046 Network Warning VM/CT uses a VLAN (tag or trunk) not in the bridge-vids of its VLAN-aware bridge
WN0047 Network Warning Bridge used by a VM/CT is missing on another node — migration / HA recovery fails
Code SubContext Gravity Description
WN0016 S.M.A.R.T. Warning Disk reports a SMART health problem
WN0019/CN0019 S.M.A.R.T. WarningCritical Disk temperature exceeds configured threshold
WN0020 S.M.A.R.T. Warning Disk has reallocated sectors — disk may be failing
CN0008 S.M.A.R.T. Critical Disk has pending sectors — imminent data loss risk
CN0009 S.M.A.R.T. Critical Disk has offline uncorrectable sectors
WN0021 S.M.A.R.T. Warning Disk has UDMA CRC errors — check cable/controller
WN0022 S.M.A.R.T. Warning Disk has reported uncorrectable errors
WN0017 SSD Wearout Warning SSD does not expose wear data
WN0018/CN0018 SSD Wearout WarningCritical SSD wearout consumed above threshold
CN0010 Zfs Critical ZFS pool is not in ONLINE state
CN0012 Zfs Critical A disk of a ZFS pool is degraded, faulted, removed or unavailable (hot spares excluded)
WN0025 Zfs Warning ZFS pool vdev has accumulated read/write/checksum errors
WN0024 Zfs Warning ZFS pool reports errors
WN0026/CN0026 LvmThin WarningCritical LVM-thin metadata usage is high — full metadata causes data corruption
Code SubContext Gravity Description
CN0004 Replication Critical Replication job has errors
CN0005 Tasks Critical Failed tasks found in the last 48 hours
Code SubContext Gravity Description
IN0003 Consolidation Info Node CPU and RAM utilization both below threshold — consider consolidating VMs
WN0036 Memory Warning Sum of RAM allocated to VMs and containers exceeds physical node RAM
WN0027/CN0027 Usage WarningCritical CPU usage above configured threshold
WN0038/CN0038 Usage WarningCritical Memory usage above configured threshold
WN0039/CN0039, WN0040/CN0040 Usage WarningCritical Network throughput above configured threshold
WN0028/CN0028 Usage WarningCritical CPU IOWait above configured threshold — indicates storage bottleneck
WN0029/CN0029 Usage WarningCritical Node root filesystem usage above configured threshold
WN0030/CN0030 Usage WarningCritical Node SWAP usage above configured threshold — indicates RAM pressure
WN0031/CN0031 Pressure WarningCritical Linux PSI CPU pressure above threshold (PVE 9.0+)
WN0032/CN0032 Pressure WarningCritical Linux PSI I/O full pressure above threshold (PVE 9.0+)
WN0033/CN0033 Pressure WarningCritical Linux PSI memory full pressure above threshold (PVE 9.0+)
WN0048/CN0048 HealthScore WarningCritical Composite health score below threshold

Any of these can be hidden with an ignore rule on its code.
