Although the Proxmox High Availability feature is a great addition to a virtual cluster environment, there are few things you will have to keep in mind while implementing this feature.
If a Proxmox HA node needs a reboot due to a kernel update or anything else, then the rgmanager

program is stopped, reboot the node. To stop the rgmanager
program, use the following command:
# /etc/init.d/rgmanager stop
