pvecm: Add a node to the cluster configuration (internal use).
$ pvecm addnode ${node}
try on your machine

The command "pvecm addnode ${node}" is used to add a new node to a Proxmox VE cluster.

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "pvecm" refers to the Proxmox VE cluster manager, which is responsible for managing the cluster.
  • "addnode" is a subcommand of pvecm that specifies the action to be performed, which is adding a new node to the cluster.
  • "${node}" is a placeholder variable that represents the hostname or IP address of the node you want to add to the cluster. You need to replace "${node}" with the actual hostname or IP address of the node.

To execute the command, you would replace "${node}" with the specific hostname or IP address of the node you want to add to the cluster, and then run the command. This command needs to be run on the existing cluster nodes, typically through SSH or a terminal session. Once executed, the command will initiate the process of adding the specified node to the Proxmox VE cluster.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
