Pve5.3 HA relocation

[czechsys]

Hi,

i have VMs in HA state, but their disks are locally (lvm). When i set parameters:

webgui sets: restart 3, relocation 0
webgui shows: restart 3, relocation 1

What are correct values? I need to config restart of the VMs when fails, but not to relocate.

Thanks.

ha with local storage does not really make any sense, since in a case where a node is down,
the ha daemon cannot move the content of the disk to the other node anyway

do you know the ha documentation already?
https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/ha-manager.1.html
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/High_Availability

this explains what the settings are doing

I know that it doesn't make a lot of sense, but it allows to restart VM on the same node when not running or fails to start.

Anyway in the docs:
max_relocate: <integer> (0 - N) (default = 1)max_relocate: <integer> (0 - N) (default = 1)

So again: when i set 0, it shows 1. Whats correct value for HA daemon in such case?

oh this is only a gui bug, it is really set to 0 (you can check in /etc/pve/ha/resources.cfg)

i already sent a fix for the gui for that:
