    PVE 9.1.11: HA CRM stuck in wait_for_quorum despite corosync quorum OK

    Hi! This would be the expected behavior if there are no and have never been any active HA resource present (i.e. running) in the cluster. The CRM will only transition into an active state as soon as there are any active HA resource present, the same for the LRM but only if there are any active...

    Need Clarification on High Availability / CRS Behavior

    Yes, to be exact rebalance-on-start will only be relevant if the HA resource goes through the request_start state, which can only happen if the HA resource was previously in the stopped state and e.g. a user requests the guest to be started through the web interface, or if the HA resource is...

    Need Clarification on High Availability / CRS Behavior

    Hi! In case of a fenced node, the HA resources on the fenced node are put in recovery state and the HA Manager will select a recovery node for each HA resource individually. This will always try to spread the HA resources on the remaining cluster nodes with respect to the HA affinity rules of...

    Questions about the dynamic CRS

    Generally, these sound like good ideas! Feel free to create separate Bugzilla entries for the separate issues: automatically add new guests as HA resources by enabling some cluster-wide check (Though new guests can be automatically added one-by-one by enabling the "Add to HA" in the web...

    Questions about the dynamic CRS

    Hi Jonas! Good catch! There is a patch for this already on the mailing list [0], I will send a new revision soon so this gets resolved! This does only happen with the "migrate" shutdown policy and is documented in the documentation for the HA Manager [1]. It might be plausible to make the...

    About CRS Dynamic-load Scheduler Status

    If a system needs high availability, there must be enough redundant hardware to compensate such node failures across the cluster. How many cluster node failures should be compensated is a question of cluster size (i.e. what is possible with respect to storage, corosync, redundant hardware...

    HA trouble with SDN

    To clarify this here, this is the expected behavior for the given HA affinity rule set. Essentially, if the HA resource has failback enabled (which it has by default) and is part of a node affinity rule with node priority classes, the HA resource can only be placed on nodes from the highest...

    Cannot migrate VM, because HA resource vm is not allowed

    Sorry for the late reply, missed this thread in the new posts section. This was already stated some of the other answers, but this is the expected behavior: HA resources are by default configured with "failback" enabled. Failback in that sense means that whenever a higher priority node...

    After PVE upgrade to 9.2.5 I cannot more migrate VM

    Hi! If I understand your description correctly, this is expected behavior. As HA resources are "failback" by default and the HA resource is in a non-strict node affinity rule, the HA Manager does not allow the migration. This is because the HA resource would be moved immediately back to the...

    Questions about the dynamic CRS

    Hi, sorry for the late reply! At least for two rooms this is already possible with non-strict node affinity rules as these will fallback to the other available cluster nodes if none of the specified nodes are available anymore. However, an HA resource cannot be specified in a...

    pve-ha-crm breaking our cluster... again

    The SIGSEGV is a very different cause to end a process here, so that seems quite unrelated to the previous SIGABRT signals. Could you specify the hardware these cluster nodes are running on? Does a longer-running memtest or a stresstest with e.g. stress-ng show any signs of hardware failure?

    pve-ha-crm breaking our cluster... again

    Unfortunately, we don't have any way to reproduce this on our end yet. One way to be able to have some more information about this would be to look at the process' coredump as a SIGABRT will cause this. See if there is any coredump related to these issues in /var/lib/systemd/coredump/ (see [0]...

    disarm-ha and arm-ha commands

    The safest procedure to disarm the HA stack before these disarm-ha/arm-ha commands were introduced is to stop the pve-ha-lrm service on each node individually, and after these are all confirmed to be 'restart mode' and all HA resources in 'freeze' by ha-manager status and then the pve-ha-crm...

    pve-ha-crm breaking our cluster... again

    I don't think that pvestatd is related to this issue, because neither pve-ha-crm nor pve-ha-lrm directly depend on pvestatd. I haven't found any clues why pve-ha-lrm in particular is killed with SIGABRT... How was the HP modules blacklisted? Was the pve-ha-lrm.service systemd unit changed in...

    LCX not starting after upgrading PVe from 9.1.x to 9.2.2 - Mount fails

    Have you started the affected container during the time of this log? You can use journalctl --since '2026-06-12 09:38:00' --until '...' to capture the output between some time span (I filled in the --since with the rough start time of the LXC from your top post). Adding --no-pager might help in...
