I am using 5.4 to be able to join a cluster then upgrade but i am getting the following

root@NODE2:~# pvecm add 10.9.0.93

Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes
Login succeeded.

It just hangs

I have tried different ip's but getting the same issue, tried to install and join 4 different times now.
 
Is there a reason why you try to use a Proxmox VE 5 cluster? Version 5 is at end of life since July 2020. Apart from that, creating the cluster from the GUI should be easier in any version.

Yes the current cluster is on 5.4 so what i need to do is replace the disks reinstall and rejoin the cluster and then i will upgrade them all to 6 once all disks and all been reinstalled.

Or would you recommend upgrading them all to 6 and then reinstalling and then joining?
 
I have just tried again and made sure the entries are in the hosts file and getting the same error.

They all used to work fine, no network changes at all
