Problem with pveca

[hec]

I installed a new server with proxmox 1.9

pmx-00:/vz# pveca -cmissing ip address for node '1'
pmx-00:/vz# pveversion 
pve-manager/1.9/6542
pmx-00:/vz# pveversion -v
pve-manager: 1.9-24 (pve-manager/1.9/6542)
running kernel: 2.6.32-6-pve
proxmox-ve-2.6.32: 1.9-47

I tried to create the cluster with pveca -c and got following message:

missing ip address for node '1'

I think the pveca script has a problem with my network config.

Here is my interfaces file:

auto loiface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet manual
iface eth1 inet manual




auto bond0
iface bond0 inet manual
    slaves eth0 eth1
    bond_miimon 100
    bond_mode 4

        bridge_stp off
        bridge_fd 0


auto vmbr2

        bridge_ports bond0.110
        bridge_stp off
        bridge_fd 0


auto vmbr3
iface vmbr3 inet manual
        bridge_ports bond0.111
        bridge_stp off
        bridge_fd 0


auto vmbr4
iface vmbr4 inet manual
        bridge_ports bond0.120
        bridge_stp off
        bridge_fd 0

I have eth0 and eth1 in bonding mode. On the bonding device there are 5 vlans and for every vlan i have on bridge. Only the vmbr1 has a ip.

Any ideas how to solve this problem?

I think the problem is that vmbr0 needs a ip and not only one of the vmbr. Are i'm right?

Yes. PVE uses the IP address of 'eth0' or 'vmbr0' for the cluster, but your setup dos not assign addresses to both of those devices.

What do you exactly mean?

 

[tom]

you need assign an IP address to eth0 or vmbr0. otherwise the cluster communication will not work.

I think the easiest way is to change vmbr0 and vmbr1.
