I have just setup a 2 node cluster names ProxmosCluster. The two nodes are PVE01 and PVE03. The cluster was created on PVE01 and then PVE03 joined the cluster. The nodes are both running proxmox 5.2.

On both nodes, I have created a single ZFS pool to hold my vm. On PVE01 it is called Pool01 on PVE03 it is called Pool03.

root@pve01:~# zpool status
pool: pool01
state: ONLINE
scan: scrub repaired 0B in 0h11m with 0 errors on Sun May 13 00:35:40 2018
config:

NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM
pool01 ONLINE 0 0 0
sdb ONLINE 0 0 0

errors: No known data errors


root@pve03:~# zpool status
pool: pool03
state: ONLINE
scan: none requested
config:

NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM
pool03 ONLINE 0 0 0
sdb ONLINE 0 0 0
sdc ONLINE 0 0 0

errors: No known data errors

The server view of the Proxmox web page shows pool01 on node pve01, but does not show pool03 for node PVE03

I do not understan why. Any suggestions ?

Regards
 
I have also just noticed that if I try to migrate a vm that is on pool01 of node PVE01 to PVE03 I get

()
2018-05-30 14:32:10 ERROR: migration aborted (duration 00:00:00): storage 'pool01' is not available on node 'pve03'
TASK ERROR: migration aborted

There is obviously a basic principle that I do not understand in regards to clusters and zfs pools...
