This is because Odoo is killing zombie processes and probably mistakenly crashing your Odoo completely while doing so. The parameter that is used for this purpose, can be found in Odoo documentation:

https://www.odoo.com/documentation/14.0/reference/cmdline.html

--limit-time-real <limit>
Prevents the worker from taking longer than <limit> seconds to process a request. If the limit is exceeded, the worker is killed.

Differs from --limit-time-cpu in that this is a “wall time” limit including e.g. SQL queries.

Defaults to 120.

You may start your service command with something like –limit-time-real 100000 to avoid Odoo from auto killing processes. A command could look like the following if you edit your service file located at:

/etc/systemd/system/odoo14.service

The exec would be like the following:

ExecStart=/usr/bin/scl enable rh-python36 -- /opt/odoo/odoo14-venv/bin/python3 /opt/odoo/odoo14/odoo-bin -c /etc/odoo.conf --limit-time-real=100000

Once the change is done, save the file, and reload the system daemon and restart your Odoo

systemctl daemon-reload
service odoo14 restart
