the question for me is, what can go wrong this way or in what way
clustering conflicts with the idea of running a "temporary server farm"
which is shutdown completely for long periods.

what happens for example if i set "pvecm expected 1"=C2=A0 and
startup/shutdown different individual servers or pairs of servers? i
think that won't fit...

when setting "pvecm expected 1" , wouldn't we need to know which
server(s) of the farm was being used last and shutdown last?

so, rethinking about this - doesn't it make sense to have something up
and running independently of that farm for maintaining cluster
state/node information?

what about adding one or two rasberry pi or two virtual maschines "on
some other, independent pve systems" as quorum/qdevice , setting "pvecm
expected 1 or 2" then and have proper backup for these ? can we
use/install virtual instances of proxmox for this ?

regards
roland
