difference between host screen and effective IP

[muekno]

My PVE host shows http:// 172.16.1.117:8006/ an address from DHCP range. but this address is not even pingable.
The effective address is 172.16.1.72, wich is pingable and reachable with ssh and the Browser on port 8006.
Everything running fine and smooth, so just a optical problem. But why.
Has anyone an idea?

That's "old behavior", running up to version 8.4
Upgrade to a current version (read: 9.x) and the information shown should get updated on every boot.

Does it change if you run pvebanner and log in again?

Check your /etc/hosts and /etc/network/interfaces. Please note that Proxmox does not support DHCP out of the box and it's best to use a static IP address outside the DHCP-range of the router.

For an example look at https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Instal...#Ensure_Hostname_Resolves_to_Hosts_IP_Address

Please share this

grep -sR "172.16.1" /etc

The pvebanner command suggestion above was made under the assumption that /etc/hosts is configured correctly.
