Hello

I have a cluster with six nodes.
VMs have storage on Synology NFS shares.

The problem:
When trying to clone one of the VMs on node5, I have discovered that I'm not able to select the target storage (the combo box is empty).
Interesting enough, I have discovered that this is true for 4 out of the 6 nodes in my cluster.
I've started to check what are the differences between the nodes (except for hardware of course). Nodes were added at different times in the cluster.
I've discovered that on the 2 nodes that I can clone VMs

Kernel Version
Linux 4.13.13-2-pve #1 SMP PVE 4.13.13-32 (Thu, 21 Dec 2017 09:02:14 +0100)
pve-manager/5.1-41

On the 4 nodes where I cannot clone VMs:

PVE Kernel is:
Linux 4.13.4-1-pve #1 SMP PVE 4.13.4-25 (Fri, 13 Oct 2017 08:59:53 +0200)
PVE Manager Version
pve-manager/5.1-35

I don't know if this is the reason, but this is the only difference that I can see.

None of the nodes have pending updates.

So first question:
- why am I unable to bring all the nodes to the same level?
- what can be the reason for not seeing the target storage on 4 out of the 6 nodes?

Any ideas?

Thank you

i guess you do not have the correct repositories configured: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Package_Repositories
