If it runs fine on the other two with the same hardware it smells strong 
like a possible hardware bug/defective hardware (or firmware)?

The countdown is probably only the default countdown, as it's not active 
and has no action configured this can be dismissed, imo.

The kernel simply doesn't find/sees the dog, did it work with PVE 3.X or 
some other system?
