Recover config.db

[nokbvdc]

hey guys, here is the thing....

I renamed by node from xx to xx01. I followed the steps here:
www_solaris-cookbook.eu/virtualisation/proxmox-rename-standalone-node-hostname/

Now my pve cluster won't start. I was getting this error about duplicate entries on the db. I manually tried to remove the duplicate but failed to save a backup copy. I am now trying to re-create the original config.db. Is that possible? or will i need to reinstall.

Your problem is you are not running a stand-alone node, so those instructions do not apply to your use case. The title alone tells me that.

not sure if this helps, but take a look here:
