new node / mounts working / gui & api dont detect contents

[Chris Rivera]

I use a nfs mount for 2 directories.

/var/lib/vz/backup ( backups )
/var/lib/vz/xtemplates ( templates folder )

this works great for all nodes... i just installed new iso 2.3, ran upgrade distro got it up to date. I added the mounts and it looks right.

*.*.*.*:/backup on /var/lib/vz/backup type nfs (rw,vers=3,addr=)
*.*.*.*:/xtemplates on /var/lib/vz/xtemplates type nfs (rw,vers=3,addr=)

i can use the command line to goto these mounts and verify the files from the nfs directory is mounted and its not showing local data. But when i goto proxmox gui and choose storage > node 12 > {backups|xtemplates} i get loading that never shows anything. When i try to see the content using the api i get back a blank response.

Why does the gui and api not see the data?

I have rebooted the server, Restarted pvedaemon, pve-cluster.

Reinstall from new iso 2.3 and again the same issue.

I was able to test that logging into the web gui before adding it to the cluster worked. After running pvecm add {ip} everything goes thru, there is 1 error displayed but everything completes.

Why does the gui and api not see the data?

What data? Is the data in the correct sub directory?

 

[Chris Rivera]

Yes dietmar the right content is in the right directory.

I do believe it has to do with the cloud stability going down while adding it to the cluster. The issue here is not the content missing, cause the content is on the server & available when browsed to from the cli. The issue is when adding it to the cluster and the copy of the authorized keys fails this caused the complete GUI to not function. No mater what is done now the gui is not usable untill we can get this cluster back online and remove and rejoin this node.

Shortly after this was not working all nodes turned red and will not turn green, which is an issue i seem to have weekly.

This goes back to the posted here => http://forum.proxmox.com/threads/13...-works-clustat-shows-all-online-all-nodes-red
