Good day all,
I'm moving off of vmWare to Proxmox and I'm a bit confused of the HA features. In vmWare, if I were to shut down or put a host in a cluster into maintenance mode, the VMs would automatically move to a different host before the host shutdown or went into maintenance mode. I can't seem to figure out how to make Proxmox replicate this behavior.
I do have HA working. If I were to shut down host1, the VMs shut down followed by host1. Then a few minutes later, host2 starts the VM. So HA is working, but there is still down time. I would think that part of the shutdown process is to migrate all HA VMs first before the shutdown.
What am I missing? Is there a setting or file I have to edit? Perhaps a script that can be attached to the shutdown command?
