    Possible to designate a cluster node as "optional"?

    I recently set up a cluster between two small PVE nodes in my homelab to provide failover on critical VMs. I was doing this in a bit of a sandbox for testing, and today I learned that if the failover node isn't turned on when you restart the primary node, none of the VMs on the primary node will...

    QDevice w/odd # nodes - docs discourage from perfectly safe setup?

    There's a great deal of misleading piece of argument to be found in currently official PVE docs on QDevices [1] and then some conscious effort to take it even further. Under "Supported setups" [1] the following is advised (emphasis mine): It continues to provide an absurd piece of reasoning...

    [HA] Cluster Resource Scheduling - filling in the missing pieces (from the docs)

    I have read the docs on HA top to bottom and back to top: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/High_Availability I can't get my head around the resource scheduling, because: "The cluster resource scheduler (CRS) mode controls how HA selects nodes for the recovery of a service as well as for migrations...
