I used to have 2 node cluster. I setup a 3rd node using a qDevice (Just a VM running on one of my servers) to be a tiebreaker.

But now I have a 3rd node to add. However, adding it has not been easy. First, I went to remove the qDevice with pvecm qdevice remove which succeeded. Then, I went to add the other node via the Web GUI using the "Assisted join" but it failed with the following:

Code:
Establishing API connection with host '192.168.1.131'
Login succeeded.
check cluster join API version
Request addition of this node

In the WebGUI, on the two nodes that already members of the cluster I see the 3rd node, but it has a little red X on it. If I click on it, it says

Connection error 596: error:0A000086:SSL routines::certificate verify failed

FWIW, the two nodes that are currently working and part of the cluster use lets encrypt SSL certificates for the webGUI so I don't get an error. When I added the new host, I didn't set up lets encrypt on it as I didn't think it would be necessary - it was jsut running the SSL certificate it came with.

Edit: This is fixed. I forgot I'd added a new isolated network for the hosts to communicate to each other with.
