I restarted all my computers in the cluster and now for some reason the VM was transferred automatically from node 5 to node 2. On node 2 I can see the VM but it no longer starts and I cannot move it back to node 5 where it was originally, I didn't realise I had HA on for this VM and so this is probably why it has migrated to node 2, I have since deleted the HA config for it but still, unable to start, clone or migrate the VM back to node 5 as I keep seeing this error:

When trying to rescue the vm by cloning it:
()

Note I can see the "vm-101-disk-0" in the node 5's "local-zfs" tab under "VM Disks" but the VM continues to be missing from the node-5 dropdown and only appears in the node-2 dropdown (unstartable and unmigrateable).
