Hello again!
IIRC address of the first installed server in cluster is listed in the corosync.conf, totem section (actually more correct will be: the server where proxmox cluster was created).
When that address will be used and how could be changed ?
Because I will need to reinstall that server (upgrade to 6.2, but with format & install), and I am not sure about the consequences of that operation...
Thank you!
 
AFAIR it is only used to determine the cluster network address, the actual host part of the IP is ignored. It's probably a good idea to still set it to a valid address in your cluster, but if it is quorate at the moment, you should be able to simply edit the corosync config and change it to an existing node's IP.
