But it's still correct to 1) set `pvecm expected 1` and 2) then power on the second node? (As per the suggestion in your 2nd response) Does it mean that if I have a cluster of 3 or more nodes then one node failing does not paralyze other nodes from starting VMs, as long as there are at least 2...

Hi @dietmar, thanks for your aswer. Just to clarify: in your first comment you wrote that I should run the `pvecm expected 1` command only if I'm absolutely sure that the second host is not running. Do I understand correcly that even if I did run the `pvecm expected 1` command while the second...

Hi @dietmar - I was uncertain whether I can do a `pvecm expected 1` legally and then change it to `pvecm expected 2` before I power on the second server? Is that a correct assumption? Do you think that I should discard this cluster and go ahead with two separate PVM machines if it's essential...

We have a 2-node Proxmox cluster a 3TB hard drive storage attached to node 1): It also shows up on node 2), however it's status is 'unavailabe' and I can't use it in any of the VMs: Am I supposed to be able to use this storage?

I'm having the following situation today: 1) There was a power outage at one of my clients 2) We shut down proxmox gracefully by: qm suspend 104 --todisk 1; shutdown -h now 3) Then we rebooting the machine, the VM did not start: 4) With no better idea, I read it on this forum that I need...

I'm administering a Proxmox setup that has two machines in cluster: 1) a mission critical server - which runs on a long lasting UPS (should run without power for hours) 2) a non-critical server - that runs on a small UPS (lasts for a couple of minutes to turn off the server properly) The...

I am surprised, but I'm verry happy that the machine is booting now unattended. Thanks for your time!

Hi @oguz - Okay this is something I cannot believe. I reinstalled Proxmox in UEFI mode (i.e. I booted the Proxmox installer into UEFI). I'm absolutely sure that I've done it before but this time it started to work. I can't explain it but nonetheless, I'm marking this thread as solved.

Hi @oguz I tried to select my HDD under boot option 1-4 but it doesn't show up. It was on on my screenshots, here is a new one: If I go under Hard Drive BBS priorities, my HDD is not showing up there either: I think I've run out of ideas :( I was hoping somebody else would have a...

@Stoiko Ivanov - Thanks, it worked! I did: 1) pvecm expected 1 2) pvecm delnode proxmox2 3) Reinstall proxmox2 from scratch (same hostname, same IP address) 4) Rejoin the cluster Surprisingly enough I don't even get any SSH key warnings when ssh-ing from proxmox to proxmox2 therefore even the...

@Stoiko Ivanov - OK, I think I'm having a problem here. Since proxmox2 cluster node was shut down before removing it, it does not show up in the command line and I can't seem to be able to remove it following the guide above: root@proxmox:~# pvecm nodes Membership information...

Hi @Stoiko Ivanov - thanks for your quick response. I didn't notice that I'm reading an old manual, thanks for pointing out. I read the document you sent above. Let me just confirm: In order to reinstall one custer node I need to do the following: 1) Remove the node fro the cluster: Remove a...

Hi, I followed this guide to reinstall a node of my cluster step-by-step: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Proxmox_VE_2.0_Cluster#Re-installing_a_cluster_node Two things I did different: - The 'cman' service did not exist in my case so stopping / starting didn't work but I ignored that. - A...

@oguz - okay, I removed my cluster according to the guide above, went and reinstalled Proxmox from a non-UEFI drive but unfortuntely the result is the same :( Please look at my screenshot if you can see anything suspicious: 1) Boot Proxmox from a USB stick as non-UEFI: 2) Install leaving...

Hi @oguz - sorry for the late answer, I missed notification on your reply above. I think I tried to install PVE both as UEFI and non-UEFI but I am willing to give it another try so that we have a good example documented here. The PVE node we are discussing here is a part of a cluster. What is...

@openaspace FYI: https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/problem-message-l1tf-cpu-bug-and-data-leak.68798/post-308296

Hi @oguz - thanks for your response. Here are the results of the commands you mentioned: lsblk -f NAME FSTYPE LABEL UUID FSAVAIL FSUSE% MOUNTPOINT sda ├─sda1 ├─sda2 vfat 8C10-657A └─sda3...

@fabian I see, thanks!

@oguz Do you have any ideas about my post above? I am still only able to boot into Proxmox one way: insert a USB stick, boot in with Rescue Boot. Very strange that installing pure Debian results in a bootable hard drive, installing Proxmox results in an invisible harddrive to my BIOS :(

Hi @fabian - thanks for you response. If I understand you correctly then the recommended flow is: 1) to install a VM inside one of the Proxmox hosts (or purchase an external NAS) 2) set up an NFS storage within Proxmox this way: 3) Then mount the ISO image from the NFS share like this: ?
