hi all,

i rebuilt our cluster with 5.1 and im happy so far.
one thing that bugs me is the above error. https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/datacenter.cfg.5.html states that
migration: [type=]<secure|insecure> [,network=<CIDR>]

For cluster wide migration settings.

network=<CIDR>
CIDR of the (sub) network that is used for migration.

type=<insecure | secure> (default = secure)
Migration traffic is encrypted using an SSH tunnel by default. On secure, completely private networks this can be disabled to increase performance.
my datacenter.cfg:
Code:
keyboard: de
migration: insecure, network=10.101.103.0/24
i tried with type=insecure, too ...
still i get the error both in the logs, via mail and while migration. obviously the stated network is not used for migration.
what did i do wrong ?

tia,tja...

your syntax is wrong, please use something like this:

Code:
migration: type=insecure,network=10.101.103.0/24
 
thx tom,

it was the additional space in the line between the comma "," and "network", i double checked now.

works:
Code:
migration: type=insecure,network=10.101.103.0/24
raises error:
Code:
migration: type=insecure, network=10.101.103.0/24

guten rutsch und ein gutes 2018 !
