Hi, Did you run pmxcfs manually in a local mode?
ps aux | grep pmxcfs if yes stop it and restart the pve-cluster service with: systemctl restart pve-cluster if that fails ensure pmxcfs is stopped then remove the lockfile with: rm /var/lib/pve-cluster/.pmxcfs.lockfile and retry. cheers, Thomas On 05/20/2016 01:20 PM, Ben Hambleton wrote: > I am attempting to create a new cluster.
