[SOLVED] Removing a node from a cluster and destroy cluster (keep original node)

[delucs]

I configured a cluster with two nodes just as a test. I figured out that I don't need the cluster, but I can't delete the second node. I followed instructions and with pvecm nodes I see the two nodes, then I delete and input pvecm delnode pve02 and I get
Killing node 2
closing file '/etc/pve/corosync.conf.new.tmp.433956' failed - Operation not permitted
If I shut down the node pve02 to be deleted first and then input pvecm delnode pve02 I get cluster not ready - no quorum?
my second node is still there and must be switch on otherwise I cannot start my VMs or do backup. How can I get rid of the second node a destroy the Cluster?
I am stuck :-(

Hi,

If I shut down the node pve02 to be deleted first and then input pvecm delnode pve02 I get cluster not ready - no quorum?

Try to give Corosync a new vote, you can do that by issuing the following command:
