    Howdy all! New Harvester user here (just a HomeLab, nothing huge). Just wanted to say hi…. super excited to test this beast out! Wondering if anyone has some “unofficial” harvester related docs or writeups you’d offer as quality material? I’m pretty comfortable in K8s and various cloud providers but haven’t self hosted beyond Rancher Desktop for local dev and my little k3d box over in the corner. Ideally my hope is to manage this whole setup in Terraform/packer/kubernetes native deployment tools, but right now i’m just figuring out the basic stuff - like where do i dig up schema on a harvester config file… Scratch that just found it Any Harvester newb suggestions welcome. I’m all ears!

    Are there other supported options for VM backups (like Veeam) with Harvester or we only have NFS and S3 option? https://docs.harvesterhci.io/v1.1/vm/backup-restore Above doc shows "Available as of v0.3.0"... so just wondering if there are more options now in 1.1?

    can someone provide the steps to add Harvester CSI to a custom rancher cluster? looks like the helm chart is looking for cloud-config folder, and there should be a file cloud-provider-config in that folder. how can i generate that file? i know it's all done automatically if you create a cluster in rancher w/ harvester as a cloud provider, but i'm doing a custom cluster so i can add windows nodes.

    I created vm network and was able to select it in the node template. However I’m facing this issue: I’m creating a new cluster, (1 master 1 worker) and selecting the corresponding node templates Then I see the cluster provisioning, 2 new vms are created, and they are in running state. However they never complete and register to the cluster… the cluster hangs in “Provisioning” I then noticed that the Storage of the vms is in “degraded” state. Any Advise on that ?

    I'm making good progress toward adopting Harvester. Now I'm assessing the basic capabilities by creating a single-node K3s cluster through Rancher Server UI. I am stuck trying to diagnose a pending state. Can you direct me to find the cause? Cluster status:
    waiting for viable init node
    Conditions log:
    [Disconnected] Cluster agent is not connected

    Is it possible to clean up the host's failed storage allocation cards in the UI? They are artifacts from attempting to force format a disk that was considered in-use because it had a present LVM volume. Now I have added the same disk successfully, but the error cards still remain in the UI.

The cards have conditions error badge with a message like
failed to force format device 3db9feafc2382c78d6a3a70815680a72: stderr: mke2fs 1.43.8 (1-Jan-2018) /dev/sdc is apparently in use by the system; will not make a filesystem here! , err: exit status 1
2023-03-21_13-07.png
In hosts > storage > edit config I do not have any UI handles/buttons to delete the error card.
I am using Harvester 1.1.1 through Rancher 2.7.1.
