Hi!
We are using a 5 node proxmox 4.2 cluster with several VM's.
Now i want to upgrade to proxmox 5 and read in the wiki that it should be possible to ADD a Proxmox 5 node to the existing Proxmox 4.2 cluster.
I just want to make sure i am right with my view of the procedure.
Plan is as follows:
I have a brand new physical Server which is installes with Proxmox 5. Network and DNS is working.
There are NO vm's on that server now. Can i just add this Server to the Proxmox 4.2 cluster??!
I hope to add it, then migrate some VM's to that server so that the next physical Server gets "free". Then i would remove that Server from the cluster, power it down and install PROXMOX 5 on it. Afterwards i would add this Server to the Cluster again to migrate the next vm's and so on. At the end i hope to have a working Proxmox5 cluster.
Can someone please tell me if this could work?
And by the way: I have NFS shares on every physical server actually. i would unconfigure that shares before removing the proxmox4 servers from cluster.
Thank you
