[SOLVED] creating cluster without HA in mind

[Mr.Gosh]

we want to have the ability to maove running VMs between hosts online - but we nodn't really need HA - so is there something to consider regarding the setup that is explained in https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/High_Availability_Cluster_4.x to achive that or am i going the wrong way?

if this setup should be the way to got, how should the second network interface be configured so it is used only for the HA communication?

Hi,

live mig has noting to do with HA.

Make a cluster
see

https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Proxmox_VE_4.x_Cluster
and
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Separate_Cluster_Network

and live mig will work.

THX I will test that:
first thing that I stumbled above is the "pvecm" creation section, there is written:

pvecm create <clustername> -bindnet0_addr 10.10.10.151 -ring0_addr one-corosync

is it a typo that the ipv4 address differs from the created on "10.10.1.151"?

Yes it was I already fixed it.
Thanks.

OK that worked - easier than expected... ;-)
Is it a problem if i want to create a cluster on an proxmox 4.2-5/7cf09667 and add an full updated proxmox 4.2-11/2c626aa1 as the second node? or do they need to have the same patchlevel?
Btw.: how to patch a cluster propperly? just one after the other and the re-add themself automagically, or is there some special advice?
