Hi,
I have trouble on my cluster pve 4.3 with 3 nodes.
Two nodes are seeing each other, but the third doesn’t see the two others nodes.
Some advice, please, how to resolve this problem.


1. /etc/pve/corosync is readonly on the node 2.
2. pvecm s on node 1 and 3
root@node3 : ~ # pvecm s

Thank's
 
Seems pmxcfs was stopped by someone (on node2)? Or what happened on node2 by that time? I would reboot to resolve that cleanly.
 
Hello,

i see that the destinations for these 4 links do NOT exist!!!! There are NO subdirectories in /etc/pve on the second node which i wanted to add to the cluster.

lr-xr-xr-x 1 root www-data 0 Jan 1 1970 qemu-server -> nodes/proxmox2/qemu-server

if this is not normal, then this is the proxmox code which is broken on proxmox 7.2.1.
Could you fix it, please?
what to do next?
Thanks.
