Hi all, I'm reading the documnetation:
A new node cannot hold any VMs, because you would get conflicts about identical VM IDs. Also, all existing configuration in /etc/pve is overwritten when you join a new node to the cluster.

The first cluster node, may contain vm?
Becaue it's the only node, there's no risk of id conflicts.
I wonder if 'pvecm create' may destroy existing guests.

Thank you.
