Thanks for finding this and directly tackling it! much appreciated
The approach works in general - and from looking through the code I think
resetting this on every sync makes more sense than once upon cluster-join
(e.g. the clusterinfo table gets truncated/wiped when restoring a backup)
I managed to reproduce the issue and verify the fix - question is why not
take the same approach for the cmailstore sync (from a quick glance the
only other table that gets synced by id not mtime) - and afair we had some
users who had to wait for their quarantine-lifetime to get their cluster
in sync again)
If you want to look even further into the cluster-stack - one of the more
common sources of constraint violation errors in a pmg cluster is removing
a cluster-node by deleting it's stanza from the config (or removing the
cluster.conf, and then rejoining that node, or a fresh one (the cid will
clash again):

https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/master-aus-postgresdb-entfernen.85255/
afaict this removing and joining a fresh node might be needed to get the
cmailstore sync to fail.
