Hello all,
My test server, soon to be in production, won't allow me to access the web interface after I recently changed it's IP address. I've changed this servers IP twice...this time there's a problem.
I started with changing the IP in the web interface and after I reboot I changed the /etc/hosts file followed by a 2nd reboot. I should have changed them at the same time, but I forgot to change hosts before I rebooted.
Hosts and /etc/network/interfaces look correct. I assume there's a service config that is not happy.

This is a non-HA config.
interfaces:
auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet static
address 10.x.x.20
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 10.x.x.254
bridge_ports enp5s0
bridge_stp off
bridge_fd 0


hosts:
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
10.x.x.20 name.local name pvelocalhost



Any guidance?

Thanks!
 
Apparently /etc/pve is now an empty directory. How does that happen???
 
what does
Code:
systemctl status pve-cluster
say?

Rebuilding. Wish I knew what happened so I can avoid it happening again!
