Hey guys,
much to my regret, I found out that the new Proxmox 4.0 isn't able to work as a 2-Node-Cluster with an additional quorum disk, due to the new corosync version. So now I'm working on the proposed solution, to add a third adequate cluster member. In practice I want to set up the third member on our additional existing KVM/QEMU server as a very small VM without any storage/resources, just to get the quorum and the necessary amount of safety against split-brain problems. The two other nodes will deliver computing power and local storage (synced via DRBD) to the VMs on the cluster.
So I'm trying to do a regular install on my additional server via libvirt, but I'm not able to get libvirt to work with the provided Proxmox VE 4.0 iso-image:
It won't find any useable boot entry (traceback shows that it's trying various options) and stops with the following message:
Has anyone already tried to use the official install-image on a libvirt environment or should I just stick to the easier solution and install a regular Debian (which works fine with the netinstall image) and upgrade the Proxmox-Features? I naturally would prefer using the first solution because it would save me some time. Thanks in advance for your help!
Cheers, Johannes
