pvecm: Generate new cluster configuration.
$ pvecm create ${clustername}
try on your machine

The command "pvecm create ${clustername}" is used to create a Proxmox VE cluster with the given cluster name.

Here is a breakdown of the command:

  • "pvecm" is the command-line utility for managing Proxmox VE clusters.
  • "create" is the subcommand used to create a new cluster.
  • "${clustername}" is a placeholder for the actual name of the cluster. You need to replace "${clustername}" with a valid name of your choice (e.g., mycluster).

When you run this command, it will initialize a new Proxmox VE cluster using the specified cluster name. This command needs to be executed on each node of the cluster to join them together. After successful execution of the command, the nodes will be clustered, and you can start managing them as a single entity.

Note that to use this command, you need to have Proxmox VE installed on your system and have administrative privileges to create and manage clusters.

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.
