Hello.
I tried making a cluster but it failed so I tried recreating it and in the process lost all my KVMs.
The KVMs are still running and I can get the full parameter list using htop or something similar.
Is it possible to somehow rebuild the config files using just that or is there are better way.
This was a new machine so there were no backups just yet. Except if PVE backups automatically.

Thank you for your help
 
Hi,

I'm not sure what you have done, but PVE makes only one time a backup of the config and this is at joining a cluster.
So you can check the backup file.
/var/lib/pve-cluster/backup/

this is an archive of a sqlite3 DB.
I think it is faster to write new configs.
