Node without Cluster shows other node

[chris1284]

Hi,

i followed this https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/pve-admin-guide.html#pvecm_separate_node_without_reinstall
on two nodes of a cluster. on the first node everything is fine, but the second node shows the first node in the management view and can access this node via shell (can not see up vms, lxc and the storage).

how can i remove the node pve01 from view of pve04?i can reinstall pve04 but i want to know how to fix this.
Background is that i will build a temporary cluster, move some vm's and than destroy it to have standalone hosts. pve04 is the new node.
I know backup/restores is better but it is a lab.

Probably there are some artifacts left in /etc/pve/nodes. Remove the folder /etc/pve/nodes/pve01 on pve04 and the visual presence in the Webgui of pve04 should vanish a few seconds later.

You may also search for artifacts with rgrep pve01 /etc/pve on pve04.

WARNING: manipulating /etc/pve in a way like this is considered dangerous - be careful and make a backup first!
