Use 2.0 Cluster Documentation for Proxmox 3.3 ?

[Lonnie]

Although I'm using Proxmox 3.3, I used documentation labeled 2.0, when I created my small 2 server cluster. That documentation is located here:
https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Proxmox_VE_2.0_Cluster#Create_the_Cluster

Now that I'm adding hard drives to an existing node, I'm trying to decide whether to delete that node completely or reinstall the node. Advice regarding this choice would be appreciated.

However, the primary reason I'm submitting this post, is to ask about the validity of this 2.0 documentation. Does this documentation apply fully to the 3.3 release? Is this the latest documentation regarding Proxmox clustering? If so, perhaps this fact should be explicitly indicated in the introduction to eliminate uncertainly caused by its title: "Proxmox VE 2.0 Cluster".

1.x -> 2.x was a major change in architecture/components/interface
2.x -> 3.x was just a Debian distribution upgrade from squeeze to wheezy, so documentation must be valid in most cases

Does this documentation apply fully to the 3.3 release?

on that page you read "Proxmox VE 2.x (and all versions above) Cluster enables ..."

so "all versions above" should mean that the infos are valid also for pve 3.x versions, in a sense. When pve 4.0 comes out (not anytime soon) this page could need maintenance, or not, we'll see.

I agree that having versioned (main) documentation of such a large/complex project could help, but it is a difficult task, and needs resources that atm are limited, probably.
Add to this that pve devs "expect" everyone to use ONLY the newest version AND updates. Old versions iso are not even downloadable from the main website...

But also a statement like "applies to: 2.x and 3.x", could help too, at least where it applies. Some pages have similar notices inside, but most of them not.
see this page https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Proxmox_VE_Cluster, which refers to the old 1.x cluster

and see the this category pages: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Category:Proxmox_VE_1.x
but there is no 2.x or 3.x category, https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Special:Categories
so... you have some good points.

Anyway anyone can help in the wiki,even you (I did). Ask the devs (probably martin is the best choice for this) if you wish to volunteer, they could be happy

hi, regarding clustering proxmox,
how to make cluster proxmox in different subnet eg, i have 4 proxmox server, (192.168.1.3/24 192.168.1.4/24), (192.168.2.5/24 192.168.2.6/24)
i have tried it and failed, waiting for quorum failed

and how to manage 4 nodes on 2 cluster proxmox on one web GUI, 2 nodes each cluster, eg (192.168.1.3/24 192.168.1.4/24), (192.168.2.5/24 192.168.2.6/24) ?

The requirement is that all nodes are in the same subnet.

and how to manage 4 nodes on 2 cluster proxmox on one web GUI, 2 nodes each cluster, eg

The GUI is per cluster.
