Hi Gary, indeed we are seeing the same on all of our KVM based virtualization platform, for example CloudStack and Proxmox. We usually see this behavior when rebooting after updates. As we update and reboot using Ansible, we implemented a check if the reboot failed within the defined timeout. If the normal windows reboot failed, we execute a shutdown and start of the VM via the virtualizations platform API. After the shutdown and start, Windows is always booting normal again. A workaround because we did not find the root cause for the issue, but we know many others suffer the same issue. Best regards, Stephan
