Hi,
I run a two node PVE 3.4 cluster with DRBD and a quorum disk located on an EMC disk array (an iSCSI share setup). I need to do some maintenance work on the array and as I have two of those, I could possibly just move the quorum disk to the other array.
What is the actual procedure for doing that safely?
I did the standard preliminary steps, i.e.:
Is it possible to do that without first migrating all VMs off the current host?
Do I need to decrease the expected votes count or something like that? If I understand the problem correctly, for a short time there would be two different quorum disks in use (i.e. as I restart services on my two nodes consecutively). Is this ok?
Thanks in advance for any tips.

I did the standard preliminary steps, i.e.:
- iscsiadm login
- mkqdisk on the device
- adding the share to Storage in PVE GUI
