Recently I needed to do an emergency shutdown of our cluster (power failure, running on UPS), and I did it by simply using the Windows server shutdown procedure.
When I started the servers later, StarWind had to do a full sync. I know that there is a recommended procedure of stopping the StarWind services first, which should make a full sync unnecessary, but I didn't have time to go hunting for that.
So here's my question: Isn't there some way to automate a safe StarWind VSAN shutdown so that, if necessary, host servers can handle this automatically? It would seem to me it should be possible to have a shutdown batch script or something. I looked, but maybe I missed it.
