Hello,
I have a Proxmox cluster made up of 3 nodes,

Code:

I wanted to test the maintenance functionality so I created a HA-group named "Cluster-HA" and inserted one VM(vm:200) as a resource to protect.
At this point, from one node I gave the command ha-manager status to check the status

Code:
quorum OK
master proxmox2 (active, Wed Nov 13 18:56:43 2024)
lrm proxmox1 (idle, Wed Nov 13 18:56:49 2024)
lrm proxmox2 (active, Wed Nov 13 18:56:44 2024)
lrm proxmox3 (active, Wed Nov 13 18:56:48 2024)
service vm:200 (proxmox3, started)

so I put the node into mainteance mode

ha-manager crm-command node-maintenance enable proxmox3

and I rechecked the ha-manager status

Code:
quorum OK
master proxmox2 (active, Wed Nov 13 18:57:03 2024)
lrm proxmox1 (idle, Wed Nov 13 18:57:04 2024)
lrm proxmox2 (active, Wed Nov 13 18:57:04 2024)
lrm proxmox3 (maintenance mode, Wed Nov 13 18:56:58 2024)
service vm:200 (proxmox3, migrate)

everything works correctly and the VM is migrated to another node

The thing that I find weird is that from the console below a screenshot:

cluster.JPG

there is no warning or badge indicating that proxmox3 node is in maintenance, it seems like a more serious shortcoming to me!
It seems very simplistic to me to have to go inside Datacenter-->HA to understand the status of a node

am I doing something wrong?
