Here you will learn the steps to cleanly remove a Proxmox node from a cluster and run it again as a single node.
Here you will learn the steps to cleanly remove a Proxmox node from a cluster and run it again as a single node.
Creating a Proxmox cluster is done quickly and some files are created in the process. But what if you want to remove a node from a cluster and run it cleanly without reinstalling.
The biggest problem is to remove the created files which identify a cluster and to start the corresponding Proxmox services again.
Just follow this quick guide and nothing worse will happen to your system.
systemctl pve-cluster stop
systemctl stop Corosync
pmxcfs -l
rm /etc/pve/corosync . conf
rm -r /etc/corosync /*
killall pmxcfs
systemctl start pve-cluster
pvecm delnode <oldnode-name>
rm /var/lib/corosync/*
Possibly the command to remove the node fails. Then you can set the expected cluster nodes to 1 and repeat the node removal command. This command is sent to the node that is not to be removed.
pvecm expected 1
pvecm delnode <oldnode-name>
rm /var/lib/corosync/*
