Re-adding old node name

[Inglebard]

Hi,

I am going to upgrade nodes servers with new ones.

Here is what I get actualy :

node1# pvecm nodes

Membership information
----------------------
    Nodeid      Votes Name
         1          1 node1 (local)
         2          1 node2
         3          1 node3

If I read the documentation : https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Proxmox_VE_4.x_Cluster#Remove_a_cluster_node

They delete hp4 and add the same server with name hp5.

It is possible to delete node2 from cluster
and add a new server with the same name "to avoid a gap between numbers" ?

Hi,

pvecm add IP-of-cluster -force

pvecm expected number-of-active_nodes

Uses these command works.
