[pve-devel] Blacklisting HP hardware watchdog timer module ?

[Riccardo Gallazzi]

Hi all, I had a kernel panic issue as described with iLO v3 but not with
v2, however I've disabled hpwdt on all my servers (inside Proxmox). More
details, if needed, later as I don't have a VPN atm.
Thank you for the workaround, I wouldn't been able to test HA without it.

Ciao!
