remove qdevice package

[jimmy1987]

I had a qdevice in our cluster for a short time (as we're migrating from a different solution to proxmox) so i didn't have 3 free servers. Now I've removed the qdevice as is mentioned on the wiki and I've added the 3rd server.

That all works fine, but can I now safely remove the corosync-qdevice package from the nodes that had it? As on my 2 nodes that used the qdevice it still says quorate qdevice.

The one that says NR is the node I just added which doesn't have the package anyway.

Hello,
Yes, you can safely remove the corosync-qdevice package from the nodes that had it.

I also tested on a 2 nodes cluster, I had to manually run ~# systemctl restart corosync on all cluster nodes, In order to completely remove the qdevice from pvecm status output.
