"Missing" was perhaps a bad choice of words. "ip a" always showed the NICs as "down". Then I found I needed to flag the new NIC as "autostart". At this the link lights light up. Now "ip a" shows them as "up".
I then created the bridge and it all works now.
Thanks for helping me!

I have three Cisco C220 M4 servers all loaded with Proxmox 8.1.4 and configured into a cluster. The cluster is healthy.
Up until now I have been using one 1 GBe/sec NIC per node. Now I want to utilize another NIC (I have eight others to choose from). With the server at the POST screen, I can...
All at the command line... I have to jump through these hoops because "qm create" has no way to target a specific host in a cluster.
So I run "qm create 1001" on HOST1.
Then I run "qm migrate 1001 HOST2" on HOST1.
Then I run "qm destroy 1001" on HOST1
And I get this message: "Configuration...
In looking through the forum posts, I see old posts with my answer but...
I need to create a rather complex VM in Proxmox but from the command line. I see comments that say things like "Create the VM using the GUI then look at the logs for a qm create command". What "logs" are never mentioned...
I need to create a new VM (250+ actually) that uses Ceph storage.
To create a disk on non-Ceph storage:
echo "----- Creating the disk -----"
qemu-img create -f qcow2 $DISK $STORAGE_SIZE
How do I create a disk on Ceph storage?
I removed the comments and the NICS that are not being used. otherwise the file is unedited.
So is it possible to have a private network across multiple Proxmox nodes without another physical NIC and an external switch?
Both nodes are connected to a switch via a single NIC. Both use vmbr0. The VMs are connected using vmbr5.
Proxmox node 1
auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static
address 172.20.21.229/24
gateway 172.20.21.1
bridge-ports enp1s0f0
bridge-stp off
bridge-fd 0...
Maybe I'm thinking Proxmox SDN is capable of doing something it can't do.
I need each VM (on different physical nodes) to be able to connect to each other through a common network.
Each Proxmox node has vmb0 with it's own IP address (external). Each of the Proxmox nodes can talk to each other...
I have three Proxmox 8.1.4 nodes. I have one VM (VM1) on node 1 and one VM (VM2) on node 2. I need VM1 to talk to VM2. Each VM is using a network bridge called "vmbr5" defined at both node levels.
Using the SDN functionality, I know using a "Simple" Zone is not the way to go. I am now trying...
Answered my own question...
Yes. Works perfectly.
Backed up a VM using NFS storage
Deleted the entire VM
Created a blank VM with the same VMID
Restored the backup to that VMID
Works.
I am planning a medium sized cluster. The VMs will all be stored on NFS storage. The backup files themselves will be stored on dedicated local storage.
When PBS backs up a VM stored on NFS storage, does it back up the NFS storage for that VM?
Just checking. Thanks.

Frankly this US government agency is looking for alternatives to Red Hat OpenShift. Broadcom/VMware has taken themselves out of consideration. We're a Linux shop so Hyper-V is a no go. I've been using Proxmox for internal projects very successfully. But unfortunately there are many requirements...
