I have a 5 node pve cluster. I just added the 5th node yesterday. Today while looking at storage I noticed that the 500gb disk was only showing 325GB for vm space. Did some searching and wound up on NetworkChucks video where he has you remove the local-lvm volume and resize the local. I did that without issue. Perhaps I was hasty.
I then tried moving a vm to that node and get this error:
```
And, in fact, do not appear to be able to move any vm to any node. I did restart one of the nodes and the containers came back.
What can I do to recover? (I do have backups)
Thanks!
