Proxmox - add old nodes (v1.9 and <) to Proxmox 2.1 cluster

[mattyc]

Hi all,

I have a cluster setup which contains 2 servers with version 1.8 and one with version 1.9 of proxmox. I have a new cluster (2 servers) built with proxmox 2.1.

My question is can I add the old nodes to the new cluster or the other way round?

Any help appreciated.

Thanks, Matt

Hi Tom,

Thanks for getting in touch. Is this the ONLY way I can do this? So pre-2.0 nodes can't be added to the 2.1 cluster?

Upgrading a production environment would be highly risky. Will just have to shift vms to the new cluster and then rebuild the old.

Cheers, Matt

no, the cluster stack changed 100 %, so you cannot mix 1.x with 2.x.

No problem. Thanks for clearing that up for me.
