# Fast answers to common questions
## Dose CCM support online VM migration?
No.
Proxmox CCM uses [Cloud-Provider](https://github.com/kubernetes/cloud-provider.git) framework, which does not support label updates after the node initialization.
Kuernetes has node drain feature, which can be used to move pods from one node to another.

2. CCM detects the new node and sends a request to the Proxmox API to get the VM configuration. Like VMID, hostname, etc.
3. CCM updates the `Node` object with labels and taints based on the VM configuration.
3. CCM updates the `Node` object with labels, taints and `providerID` field. The `providerID` is immutable and has the format `proxmox://$REGION/$VMID`, it cannot be changed after the first update.
4. CCM removes the `node.cloudprovider.kubernetes.io/uninitialized` taint.

If you modify the `kubelet` flags, it's recommended to check all workloads in the cluster.
Please __delete__ the node resource first, and __restart__ the kubelet.
The steps to troubleshoot the Proxmox CCM:
1. scale down the CCM deployment to 1 replica.
2. set log level to `--v=5` in the deployment.
3. check the logs
4. check kubelet flag `--cloud-provider=external`, delete the node resource and restart the kubelet.
5. check the logs
6. wait for 1 minute. If CCM cannot reach the Proxmox API, it will log the error.
7. check tains, labels, and providerID in the `Node` object.
