        Are those one report from each node?

        Nothing pkg related is shown. The only thing there that looks bad, apart from the crash itself is:

        [zone: pf 8 entries] PF frag entries limit reached
        [zone: pf frag entries] PF frag entries limit reached
        

        You should never hit that limit in normal circumstances.

          thanks @stephenw10 for sharing. The PF frag graph doesn't show anomaly over 24 hour.

          I only did install package on the primary but why both pfsenses went down at the same time. Actually, I meet the same problem from 2.7.1 even fresh install from 2.7.2 . How should avoid this happen in future ?

            So those crash reports are from each node? They happened simultaneously?

              Yes, they happened simultaneously and crash reports although I didn't adjust any with the secondary.
