Cluster setup Node Unauthorized 401

[Arpanet69]

Hi All,

Trying to get a basic cluster setup working between 2 nodes... third will be added later. All the servers are connected to 10.250.10.0/24 network. The nodes joined the cluster without any issues. Am able to ping the nodes and the nodes able to ping each other with a constant RTT of below 1ms. Network connection seem to be all good. I am currently running Proxmox 7.2 Bare Metal on Dell R210 and a R220 connected to a physical VyOS router.

After the nodes joined the cluster i can see both nodes in the GUI and am able to install VM on the first node without any issues. When i select the second node in the GUI it starts showing me 401 issues. The setup is super basic so am not sure what would cause this issue.

Am a beginner if it comes to the Proxmox CLI so if any output wil help solving the issue please issue the full cli so I can provide the information asap.

Thanks!
Arpanet

Thanks Shrdlicka for checking this out.

FYI there have not been any HA config added so only the cluster configuration have been done.

Have you already tried restarting both nodes?

 

[Arpanet69]

Yes restarted bot nodes a few times... but i will try again now.

..... Reboot same issue unfortunately

 

[shrdlicka]

Try

pvecm updatecerts

if this doesn't help try

pvecm updatecerts --force

Tried first command on both nodes then rebooted both nodes.. still same issue.
Tried second command on both nodes then rebooted both nodes.. still same issue.

I noticed that it easaliy discovers the nodes when trying to install a VM on PVE3 (the node with the issues)... but as soon as i want to select the storage it comes with the 401 error. Seems like this has something to do with storage access see attachment.

Reinstalled all the nodes and now it seemed to work... not sure what caused it but seems there was something wrong with the PVE3 installation.
