Hello,

I'm somewhat new to Proxmox, but have installed the software several times on stand alone units.

The issue for me came about creating and adding nodes to a cluster on the most recent release.
I would consistently get the error "Unable to copy ssh ID" from the Node being added to the cluster.

The issue was that the environment variable "HOME" in the proxmox shell was set to "HOME=/".

To resolve the issue I issued the command "export HOME=/root" from the second node, which then allowed the SSH ID to copy successfully and create the cluster.

I'm not sure if this has been an issue or a solution was already presented in the forums, if so please remove the post :)
