:Just as reference, and following Paride's suggestion: there was a bug which looks terribly similar to the one I am posting here.
The summary is familiar: HP Proliant Servers - Kernel Panic - NMI - DL360 & DL380 - HPWDT module loaded https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1432837 I think eventually the whatchdog was (back then) eventually blacklisted. In the current case (22.04) the OS does not initiate the reboot sequence and after the kernel logs the panic NMI event, the system simply does nothing. In fact, if it was not for iLO I would have not noticed the issue -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2012366 Title: NMI: IOCK error on HP MicroServer Gen8 after Focal -> Jammy upgrade Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: After distro upgrade to new LTS "22" from 20 the HP microserver shows a critical NMI event in ILO Unrecoverable System Error (NMI) has occurred. System Firmware will log additional details in a separate IML entry if possible no hp modules are loaded except hpilo: lsmod |grep hp hpilo 24576 0 Despite the server is flashing "red" the System is functional. A few minutes after boot the kernel shows 4-5 of these kernel panics (see full log) but continue to run ok, the NMI flag in ILO appears simultaneously to this kernel error. this issue was not present before the distro-upgrade.
