Hostname issue causing KVM not to start

Hello.

I have a problem in the control panel that the KVM install is showing up under a different host name from where the actual systems are not being setup. Under the control panel and then Datacenter I am seeing 2 pull down options:

backend
orange

of which one is active. The issue is that this is not a clustered system and they both should be under the orange section where my OpenVZ image is. If I try to load the KVM system in the control panel I get: Data Load Error

I can fix this by changing the servers hostname and then restarting the control panel service though it then causes issues with the OpenVZ image under the second name.

How can I go about assigning the KVM system back to the correct section in the control panel so that I can start it.

Thanks,

Paul Hughes

you post is totally confusing for me. try to tell it in a way that I can follow.
 
Hello.

I have included a screen shot as I think this will make it clear, its hard to explain.

Basically I need to move 101 from under backend to under orange so that it will work.

Thanks,

Paul

I think I have worked out why its doing this as under:
root@orange:/etc/pve/nodes# ls
backend orange

I guess we should only have one node but I attempted to copy the conf over and it was denied. I also could not see a config file which controls this in the pve-cluster manager.

Is this a bug which needs to be fixed going forward?

Hello.

Yes I did as I set it wrong on the inital setup but I had already added a system by this time. So now I have 1 per hostname and can't see a way to fix it.

The cluster file system does strong consistency check to prevent duplicate VMIDs - so copy will not work. Simply use 'mv' instead of 'cp'.
 
Hello.

That was a great help! The mv of the config worked and its removed the broken hostname from the web gui as well.

Thanks,
