[SOLVED] Confused: cluster, local ZFS pools for VM storage

[NewDude]

This is my fault - trying to create a cluster and thought I had the second node configured as the first, but I missed a step:

Node 1:

• local ZFS pool on the boot NVMe: named local-vfs
• ZFS pool for VM storage: named vm_zfs
• Added vm_zfs in datacenter view as storage for VMs with the same name.

Node 2 set up identically, except I forgot the perform the third step and go to datacenter and add the vm_zfs pool as vm_zfs virtual machine storage.

(sorry if I'm getting terminology wrong.)

The goal is to sync VMs periodically from one machine to the other for HA.

Is there a way to fix this on the second machine, or do I just need to remove the second machine from the cluster, reconfigure it, and re-join?

ok, AI to the rescue.

Went to datacenter, selected the storage, chose "edit" and made sure both nodes were connected.

Testing now...

Well, I can't say I fixed it because I ran into another issue related to permissions - can't ssh from the primary cluster node to the new one. So working on that now. <sigh>
