If i use storage spaces as data storage, should I disable all types of caching in starwind vsan?

Hi. I read through your guides implementing 2 node cluster on top of Storage Spaces instead of hardware raid. Obviosly, most exciting feature in such design is tiering. I will try to validate such design in lab, but i need to ask a few questions first (before i start purchasing hardware). By now, it...

Hello all! I test 2-node Hyper-V cluster, build by Starwind reference design. Windows Server 2012R2. I meet such issue... If i shutdown both cluster nodes, HA-devices will be run full resync after startup. It takes approximately 10 minutes with my 100GB SSD storage and 1 GB sync uplink to bring clus...

I supposed, that i should to seek such design: 2-raid-config.png But if I rightly understand Cragile, such option will be more acceptable? 1-raid-config.png I think there should be 2 HA device anyway fro two-node cluster, or we can not achieve IO localization on each node. All the problems, how to s...

Hello. I am planning to deploy a 2-node cluster, hyperconverged scenario. It will run banch of virtual machines. If i not misunderstanding, for maximum i/o localization, i must have a two HA-device. Should I place this image files on different physical luns? Or i can use one lun/volume on each serve...

I think it should be something like that:
1) RAID10 LUN - NTFS formatted with 64K. 4K seleted for HA-device cluster
2) Cluster Shared Volumes ReFS formatted with 64k
3) Guest VHDX - NTFS formatted default (4KB)

Hello. I am planning to run two-node hyper-converged cluster, Hyper-V + Starwind VSAN. I assume, there will be two RAID10 4x4TB HDD on each server for storing HA-device files. Sync lync supposed will be 10GBASE-T Ethernet crossover (w/0 switch). I'm not clear in this points: 1) I will format RAID10 ...
