Pool Master down - What happens?

gawlo

Hi,

I've got a beginner question.
If there's a Pool with 3 xcp-ng servers (no shared storage) and the pool master goes down, what happens to the slaves?

Unfortunately I have not found anything about this.

Just nothing right now. VMs will continue to run. You won't be able to send orders (like moving VM, stop, or start new VMs).

If your master is down for good, you can emergency transition the master to a slave (but you must be SURE the previous master won't come back!).
