Hello, I have two nodes (pve and pve254) that I added in a cluster in order to learn and practice replication and HA. The cluster was created on pve, and pve254 was added the the cluster.

Once I knew that I need ZFS to replicate, I removed the pve254 from the cluster and removed the cluster. I used theses commandes.
on pve node :
Code:
pvecm expected 1
pvecm nodes
pvecm delnode pve254
rm -rf /etc/pve/nodes/node254

Again on pve node:

Code:
pvecm expected 1
systemctl stop pve-cluster.service
pmxcfs -l
rm -f /etc/pve/corosync.conf
rm -f /etc/pve/cluster.conf
rm -f /etc/corosync/corosync.conf
rm -f /etc/cluster/cluster.conf
rm -f /var/lib/pve-cluster/.pmxcfs.lockfile
systemctl stop pve-cluster.service
reboot

Of course I removed the VM test from HA Resources before.

I executed theses commandes :

Code:
systemctl stop pve-ha-crm
rm /etc/pve/ha/manager_status
systemctl start pve-ha-crm

The HA is displaying "quorum OK"

Expected behaviour : when no cluster exists, HA should display that this node should be a part of a cluster. Usually this part of Proxmox VE is greyed out until we create a cluster.

Any help ? Thanks

a single node is always quorate though, unless pmxcfs is mounted ro ;)
