Just for my understanding. Our VMs are on node A or node B, but not on both. The storages of each node are replicated so the vm disks exist on both nodes. Now for configuring HA failover without shared storage - is it just a matter of adding entries for the VMs in HA? How will that work then...

Thanks a lot. Exactly what I was looking for :)

Is this possible to configure a sync to a local second datastore? I am asking as I would like to have a offsite backup configured on a removable medium. Or will I have to workaround example, I install proxmox-backup-server on one of our cluster nodes with the usb stick/disk as datastore for pbs...

Great, thanks for clarifying, so I might try to set this up as a short breakage / dataloss until the second node is ready to server the vm is acceptable for such a small environnement that we are.

Understood. Thanks a lot for the clarification.

True. Thats why I am wondering if also HA and automatic failover to the second node is possible without shared storage.

What does work is migrate a running vm. I was under the impression that this also required a shared storage some time ago, but a ProxMox experienced user told me that it works without shared storage nowadays, which it does in my case. Thats why I want to know, if automatic start of a vm on a...

Thanks for your reply. I also have an additional question. I read in documentation, that for HA / failover / fencing shared storage is needed. But then again, I heard somewhere that live migration of VMs also require shared storage, but apparently this is also possible without shared storage...

As I see that replication duration in our case takes just 1.6 to ~6 seconds per vm, I am thinking about to shorten the period to */1. Is this ok, or would you not recommend such short intervals?

Great, I can confirm it works. Sorry not having known that. I am still quite new with ProxMox. Finally how can I change back to non pvetest repo? Is it enough to just put an # before the pvetest in sources.list? Thanks for your quick and valuable support!

I tried it, but it does not work for me. A reboot is not necessary, right? pveversion -v proxmox-ve: 6.2-2 (running kernel: 5.4.65-1-pve) pve-manager: 6.2-15 (running version: 6.2-15/48bd51b6) pve-kernel-5.4: 6.2-7 pve-kernel-helper: 6.2-7 pve-kernel-5.4.65-1-pve: 5.4.65-1...

HI Fabian, thanks for your reply. I was afraid, you'd tell me that it would work if I completely reinstall proxmox-ve because I had removed them from cluster and recreated a new one. :) When will this be available? As I dont know howto patch the system myself, I maybe should just wait, but if...

Which is a great thing, I am currently testing it :) Thanks for your information

What I did was the following. Initially I had created the nodes with an encrypted datapool where the vms resided. As I then found out that replication does not work with encrypted pools, I separated a node without reinstalling, destroyed the encrypted pools and re-created a cluster. Before...

I get the following error if I try to migrate vm to another node while it is running. It successfully migrates if done while VM is shutdown. Proxmox Virtual Environment 6.2-15 Virtual Machine 106 (piHole) on node 'srv1' Logs () 2020-11-05 01:23:15 starting migration of VM 106 to node 'srv2'...

Thanks. I checked and it was already removed probably by purge.

ok, I did the additional touch file confirmation for remove. Can you tell me which are the config files to remove please?

Thanks for confirmation. Strangely it does work with part of the vms while with others I get above error, which I do not really understand, as the vms have similar configuration and are on the same pool. As its not possible I will probably change to unencrypted pool for now, Can you elaborate if...

Thanks for confirmation and for suggested workaround; I will try to do so. If that works, will it easily be possible to uninstall proxmox-ve on the pbs server? I had installed the server with proxmoxve iso and then added proxmox-backup-server by apt. Will it work with apt-get remove proxmoxve...
