Hey,

nothing got deleted, you just stopped a service, which can be started again using

systemctl start pve-cluster

alternatively you can just restart your node.

In our startup we have two proxmox servers one with ip - 192.168.50.16 where i have a lot of vms running locally and i want to migrate vms to our another proxmox server with ip - 192.168.50.18 n even i went through forums and documentation i dont want to transfer through clusters is it there any better solution like through cli or something else pls provide a simple solution to migrate!

Something like PBS[1][2] is probably the next best thing, other than that you can take backups locally, copy them over to the other server and restore them there.

edit: what do you mean with "transfer through clusters"? Are both nodes already in a cluster?
