[PVE-User] Cluster HA withtou Fence Device !

[admin-at-extremeshok-dot-com]

Assuming he is using shared storage (NAS)...

The nas operates as a 3rd node, and the systems are fenced via the NAS.

As long as 1 node can communicate with the NAS, it will have a higher 
quorum, than the node that cant connect to the NAS.

Single point of failure is NAS, so its not HA.
