pfSense 2.4.4-p3 in boot loop - VM Hyper-V

[Erly Araújo]

Hello people.

I recently upgraded pfSense from 2 clients, from 2.4.4-p2 to 2.4.4-p3, and the two after a short while of use, starts to go into a boot loop and just reinstall to work again.
Note: pfSense is installed on a Hyper-V virtual machine.

Has anyone been through this? Do you know what may be happening?

I have this with esxi, but point in that my issue was been documented and appliers only on VMware vms.

@dragoangel I understand. but did you find a solution?

I've had mine go into a boot loop with disk corruption when restarting the host after MS updates (on 2012R2). I found pfSense did not want to save state nor would the server successfully shut it down, and I have since started manually shutting it down before host reboot. I also use a fixed disk and memory size because FreeBSD did not seem to recognize dynamic anyway.
