In this case, remove keys and regenerate.

root@pve01:~# rm -f /etc/pve/pve-root-ca.pem /etc/pve/priv/pve-root-ca.* /etc/pve/local/pve-ssl.*
root@pve01:~# pvecm updatecerts -f
(re)generate node files
generate new node certificate
merge authorized SSH keys and known hosts
root@pve01:~# pvecm updatecerts -f
(re)generate node files
generate new node certificate
merge authorized SSH keys and known hosts
root@pve01:~# 

Now, problem fixed.
