    Description

    Hi team,

    I recently added a second node to my cluster, but I’m running into an issue regarding how virtual machines are provisioned.

    Whenever I create a new VM, it is always automatically deployed on Node 1, and never on Node 2.

    Could you please explain how VM placement or scheduling works once a cluster is set up? Specifically:

    Is there a way to manually target/steer a new VM creation to Node 2?
    
    Does multiportal handle automatic load balancing or resource-based placement across cluster nodes, or do I need to configure something specific?
    

    Thanks for your help!

    Best regards,Capture d'écran 2026-08-20 184403.png
