... i understand, it was foolish to force it that late at the evening :-/ and i simply should have backed it up ... but as i said. bad idea ...

nvm it is like it is and i hope you are willing and able to help me, although its just stupid what i've did.

i wanted to migrate my proxmox hardware to the new network to backup the node on the new established backupserver.
therefore i went to change the IP and ofc the hostname... completly forgot about that it should be done only on an empty node.

Now i have access via console and ssh (network connection is established) with a static IP, but i cant connect to the gui. I am used to edit hostname/hosts or network/interfaces ... but this time, i dont know how to solve the problem, getting back to the old hostname/domain as i forgot how i named it a year before :-/

found another article, where in /etc/pve/nodes should be something... but /etc/pve is already empty :-D

any chance to recover or copy the actual VM ?

Its homeassistant and it seems as if its not running atm ;-) (checked under the port i used it on)
