Hello,
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 Wed Feb 16 00:35:40 2022
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 understand why. Any suggestions ?

Regards
 
Hi,
the storage configuration is shared among the cluster, so when you join a new node it loses it's storage configuration. You can simply re-add the storage and restrict it to the node it's available on. Or alternatively, rename the pool the PVE03 node (if there are already volumes on the storage, you'll need to adapt the VM/LXC configuration files to point to the renamed storage).

You should consider upgrading (and to 7.x), because PVE 5.2 is end-of-life since quite some time.
