Hi Guys

So Im running a 2 node cluster (drbd) with Proxmox 3.4 and it runs perfect.. I bought a subscription for both my servers but now I am scared to upgrade will it go to the latest Proxmox 4 I am worried this happens and my cluster setup isnt really supported in the new version. Please advise?

Thanks
Mark
 
Have you read the upgrade guide? If not, don't update.

https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Upgrade_from_3.x_to_4.0

With respect to the cluster itself, you won't have HA, yet there is one GUI to administer your VMs. You'll have to add a third machine to get "real" HA (due to quorum issues). Your DRBD will be updated to DRBD9, which is newer, yet there are some reports that it's not as mature as the previous version was, but I have no hands-on experience on that matter.
 
if you have an existing PVE 3.4 installation (with wheezy / PVE 3.4 repositories) you won't upgrade to jessie/PVE 4, unless you configure the jessie/PVE 4 repositories (as described in the upgrade instructions). instead, you will receive security updates from the wheezy / PVE 3.4 repositories (but those are only to ease the transition to PVE 4, and will not be around for much longer!)
 
Super please don't take away 3.4 from us it's stable and my 2 node has 300 days uptime with no failure. We are prepared to pay for updates on 3.4 I'm sure others are too
 
Debian Wheezy behind 3.4 is in Debian LTS, so no "real" support there. Proxmox 3.4 is discontinued with respect to new features, only bugfixes if really necessary.
