Hi folks,

I am trying to revive an old proxmox machine.
Thanks to the help of the forum I have already been able to rename and move a couple of vm's, and upgrade to debian bullseye and upgrade proxmox from version 5.x to 7.4-18. So far so good.

At the moment I'm withheld from creating learning-case vm's due to the fact that there is some remnant present from the 2019 era:
- I have pve-0 (up and running)
- and a "remnant shadow" pve3

This remnant shadow named pve3, seems to have had to vm's 101 and 100.

Question:
How do I remove this pve3?

Thanks a lot for helping out!

You probably want to go this route:
https://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/chapter-pvecm.html#pvecm_separate_node_without_reinstall
That set of steps will make you change pve-0 into a stand-alone host again, without being in a cluster, and will remove all the other nodes/configs.

Please read through the above carefully and double-check, but I think the commands for YOUR setup specifically should be:
Code: 
systemctl stop pve-cluster
systemctl stop corosync
pmxcfs -l
rm /etc/pve/corosync.conf
rm -r /etc/corosync/*
killall pmxcfs
systemctl start pve-cluster
rm /var/lib/corosync/*
rm -r /etc/pve/nodes/pve3
 
Thanks a lot!
Will look into it and post back. Will probably be for the next couple of days.

Seems like you are settled. Maybe tag prefix the thread-title with [SOLVED], (upper right hand corner under title).
