I had originally setup a 4 node test cluster and removed 3 nodes from the cluster leaving one node (nodeA). I then took the 3 nodes and reinstalled pmox 2.1 on them and clustered them with the same original cluster name "test". I noticed that both the new cluster and the nodeA have the same multicast address and cluster name.

nodeA will not backup vm's, migrate vm's, and even allow other nodes to be added to achieve quorum. It will not copy the SSH key over to the node we are trying to add. I think this is because I have this node with identical cluster name and multicast address as the new cluster i've setup.

Is there anyway to change the cluster name and multicast address of the new cluster so as not to conflict with nodeA?

nodeA is in read-only mode and will not allow me to add another node to achieve quorum. I've rebooted pve-cluster, cman, and the server with no effect.
