Hello,
I'm running a ProxMox VE 6.2 on Hetzner on a dedicated server.
Server has one nic and multiple ips. I created a vmbr0 bridge.
Vps are connected to this bridge.
I have 5 vps with dedicated ip assigned to each. Ip is assigned inside the guest (trough netplan/networkd).

I want to create an HA environment with al least 3 host server but I think I'm missing some pieces of infos.

The questions are:
What should I do to preserve ip when a VM is migrated by HA to another host?
Do I have to change the way Ip are assigned ? Do I need floating ips?

Thanks in advance
 
No. But you should really start a test lab to ensure you understand how it works instead of testing in the production server!
Ok good to know. Yes I'll setup a test environment before doing any sort of operation in production.
