I have an existing v6.2 server with hardware raid. I have vg called PVE and an LV called data created as a thin pool
I now am trying to add a second server to the cluster. This server has a dedicated SSD for the OS (pve) and another SSD I wish to use for images.

When the new server is added to the cluster, I see local-lvm as a disk with a ? symbol next to in on my new server. I also cannot migrate a container of VM from one node to another, getting the error:

ERROR: found stale volume copy 'local-lvm:vm-106-disk-0' on node 'newnode'

Is there a way to set up a 2 node cluster, with each having 2 physical drives, one for OS and one for images, and then be able to migrate guests between them at will?
 
Hi,

yes, this is possible.
The easiest approach is to use a symmetric storage configuration.
If this is not the case you can use the command-line for migration with the parameter ''-targetstorage <storage>'
